You can see on the map http://tinyurl.com/39mhjkb
that the Manhattan dot has gone red.

Here's the information that has been added:

David Sperling MD, Columbia University

Columbia University
2960 Broadway

My 1st post should be in quotes, it was from Arlene Hubbard on the CCSVI Facebook page.

I happen to know 2 other doctors will be approved in the coming few weeks ... (spoke to both of them personally). IN FACT, they are contacting patients to get them set-up for when they can start-up.

A wave is coming ...

This is such wonderful news! I am in contact with a Dr. who had been to the Glasgow conference this past weekend & said it was great & we'll be hearing much more on ccsvi.

Waiting for the yellow ballons to turn red has been almost as exciting as watching paint dry... until now. This is great news! I hope more will turn red soon.

Who had the idea of the multicenter IRB? Hubbard himself? This was a genious idea.

Very soon everybody in USA will be treated thanks to this.

The Warren Michigan site is back on the map again. It's still blue but at least it's there again! Great news! It looks like a couple of others have been added as well since the total count is now 18. It was 15.

There are 500,000 people with MS in the US. It will take a while. Plus repeat venoplasties! Thank goodness they are started on it.

CCSVIhusband, that is good news too. Can't wait to see all the dots red. This is different than our regular treating doctors, wtih this registry all the data will be captured and will be used for publications and research. Clinically the docs are ahead of the game, we need that research to support what they're doing.

David, great news!
