I live in CA, was diagnosed with MS, 12 years a go and since then, have changed company 4 times.
Never been denied to obtain insurance through my employer. just make sure to stay insured between jobs to be qualified for HIPAA later if needed.

Question for ladies ONLY who have had CCSVI

Hello Ladies
I had CCSVI done 45 days a go, my first period after procedure, has been extremely heavy and has lasted 15 days.
:evil: :x
This worries me and makes me very weak. Have you had any issue with your period after CCSVI?

Thanks,
brave
