I started a blog

Well I'm finally a blogger! I started it since I have so many wonderful friends and family who just don't know how to do internet forums and they all want to stay current with how this works out. And since I'm windier than a bag of buttholes, it will give me a place to release some of my writing angst :lol: . The address is here: http://myhopefuljourneyintoactualmsreco ... gspot.com/. It's totally not about informing people about the science behind CCSVI and all about how it affects the person. I hope my fingers get sore posting good news.

I know that address is a little long, but I'm a new blogger as of this morning and I just clicked the OK box when they were suggesting website names. Believe it or not, there are all kinds of blogs using "Loobie" in the domain name. I'll shorten it up at some point, but I'm going to track here and on there. We are now down to less than a week. I'm freaking out. It's so damn awesome to keep reading Alex and everyone's improvements. I can't let my hopes get too high, but Lord this is exciting!!!!!!

Nice work, Lew! I think it's great to write from your perspective, and let folks know how this impacts a real live MS patient. You're not responsible to explain the science...just share your insights and be honest about the journey...this is all moving so fast, it's good to take a step back and document what's going on in your life. Jeff's warming up the MRI/MRV machine for you right now :)
xo,

Great blog Lew!! It'll be a good thing for people. And you are so right TIMS is the place to be. I learned of abx here and was really glad to do it too. And now CCSVI and freedom to post about it and talk about it all we want. It is great. And hey you get to share your blog too! it is all good for everyone involved :D

just to be sure, you understand that even though the website name is long, it does not count as your first post.

Good idea! Plus you can post comments on there now. I went through the settings and just had to unclick a box.

Update today with some cautiously optomistic good stuff and also some stuff about how moronic I can be at times.

Great post, Lew! Really excited to read about the improvements in vision, balance, bladder and heat tolerance! Jeff did the over-doing-it thing the first few weeks, too. I think it's natural...you want to see if this is "for real". Jeff and Marie's tip for that Spock-pinch, level 10 shoulder pain was a wet towel inside a zip lock gallon baggie, microwaved for a minute. Place that on the shoulder, and breathe deeply. Jeff didn't want to do muscle relaxants, since he feared feeling tired...but in retrospect, Sharon's tip might be the thing to do for you. Hang in there...the pain lasts a few weeks, but the improvements will stay, and hopefully keep getting better-

a very happy,
cheer
