Many of the hyper-critical naysayers don't have a horse in this race like you. Didn't mean to call your mother a horse, but you get the idea. Zamboni counsels caution on the side of not getting liberation treatment outside of a clinical trial. On the other hand, he performed the procedure on his wife. There is enough information out there to make an informed decision. Like your mother, I was imaged at False Creek, and seeing the severe stenosis makes the treatment decision easier. I view the jugulars as the exhaust pipes of the brain. If my car's exhaust looked like that, i'd take it into the shop to get fixed. And it's my business if I do.solney wrote:Unfortunately opportunities don't just come to you. You have to go out and get them. I have been studying this subject for one year now, and have read numerous papers and opinions on the subject. As I stated my mother was rated a 8.5 and was not long for this world. Her choking was getting so bad and her speach was non coherent. I by no means jumped on the Ccsvi bandwagon without careful consideration. Next we had my mother tested at false creek and the tests came back with narrowed right jug and pinched left. At this point it's hard to deny that she in fact had Ccsvi. The next stage was looking for treatment as close to home as possible. Without a referral from our nero, no doctor in the states would return my calls,so we decided to take a chance on Mexico. We never been treated so well, and the level of care was greater than what we have ever received in Canada. The improvements were immediate and continual. Forgive me if after all this I am now bias in the favor of Ccsvi , but seen 5 other people with dramatic improvements well I was there. My mothers life was saved by this procedure and now I want to help as many people as possible. When you have seen what I have seen, you just have to shake your head at the poor patients with loved ones that continue to openly deny the hope for them. I pray that this procedure will be offered to all that needs it before it's to late, and I will continue to spread the word. please read our story at www.prpeak.com, front page.
