I think she also needed to go back to hospital for some reason? Or I could be getting confused with someone else..

Here's her more, if not most, recent post, but it's more about the MS Walk in Australia and about getting the CCSVI word out. However, she does give a brief status after about 6 mins.

Does anybody have a recent tally of people who have had this procedure? The neigh-sayers, are they flogging dead horses? Not in the market, myself.

This is what we have recorder but have no idea how accurate.
I really wish there was an official registry. I've possibly
the Barrie group will start an official database hope it's
true. It would be very powerful similar to Dr A. G. original
concept.
Patient number 6 was done yesterday in Slovakia. I was visiting the patient in hospital. She is SPMS, got 2 stents and angioplasty.
They continue. They just have too many other patients with heart and other vascular diseases.
Patient number 5 got 4 stents.
