MS and CCSVI
Posted: Tue Oct 18, 2011 4:50 pm
My Brother has MS and in a matter of 1 1/2 years he is now in a wheelchair, was unable to think clearly, was argumentative, did realize that he was angry...
I first brought up to his Doctor the Dr Zamboni Treatment that I had read about approximately a year ago....it was met with no cooperation and in fact was told it was not a treatment that he would recommend.
Ok folks here it goes -
I found a location here in town and they performed a Doppler test on my Brothers neck and he had 4 out of 5 indicators for CCSVI. The next step was to locate a Dr that would treat his CCSVI, and we did. The procedure was performed yesterday at 0845 hrs EST. after the waiting period in recovery we took him home and he fell into a very nice and comfortable sleep.
This morning I called to check in and see how he was doing and was met with a very warm, relaxed, non aggressive brother that was so glad to hear from me. He commented that he hasn't felt this good since he could remember and that he was really happy that he was comfortable and not in pain.
This is just less than 24 hrs after the procedure. There has got to be something to this. Why is the Medical field making it so hard for us to make sure our family members get the best care possible?
