I had the procedure 9 July both JV 80% closed.Nice improvements for 11 days. My old symptoms came back and a little bit worse. I am going back 15 Sep to get checked and possible treatment, this time I will ask for stents.

It looks as if my veins closed after 11 days of the procedure. I am going back and will ask for stents.

I am still on blood thinner. Procedure at Ameds and they gave me a new date for check up and possible new procedure for Oct. They responded right away and do their best to accomodate me.
The flight itself was 9 1/2 h.

I had the procedure 9th July. Angioplasty in both JV. Nice improvements for 10 days. Two days after I returned to Canada all my old symptoms are back. It looks to me like restenosis, I will get a date for October to go back. I know it worked, so I hope that stents will do the trick. A while ago I re...

At Ameds they have rooms with on or two beds. First day tests, overnight stay, second day procedure and second night stay.
Everybody is very friendly and they do their best.

I saw on Multiple Sclerosis Resource Centre CCSVI following article.
CCSVI recognised as an independent vascular condition by Italien health
authorities.
That's the way it has to go. How do we get this into the brains of our authorities.

All the best Louise3.
I am flying out on the 5th July, would be great to get some information about Ameds from you.

I registered 21 Jan, my date is 8th July, I am in the process of booking flights.
When I am back I will let you know how it worked out.

I agree with Joan. Where are the vascular experts with enough back bone to stand up and claim this as their territory. The one I saw came up with the same lame arguments as the neurologist. I am going to Poland in July.The more of us coming back with positiv results the better and we have to let eve...

Ameds 8th July registered 21 Jan
I am from BC Canada

I will sign up too. If that get's more attention.

As long as they include treating people and as soon as they have positiv results (even short term) turn over and treat everybody.
They still can keep on doing more research.

They all want to buy time to keep on making money. Check out Dr. Mark Freedman a vocal critic of Dr. Zamboni. He is in long term MS research, funded by the MS society, the same time he is on the medical research comittee of the MS society. They want us to believe that we are their main concern ? I d...

[quote="Villagemaid"]There is an interventional Radiologist here in Kelowna. I should get referred to him after I get my ultrasound.....not mention MS......[/quote]
Hi
I tried Kelowna, that time they said they don't have the software. Phone them before you get the referral.

Hi happy canuck
The Surrey MRI worked for me. I found out what I was looking for.
If a person goes for the procedure they will take another MRI I would think. This way, I save money with going for the cheaper MRI.
