Re: Infusion related side effects/allergic reactions.

It turned out to be an attack, with two new leasions. I understand that the stress of lemtrada treatment can set off MS relapses, and that it is not that uncommon. Neuro said that it did not mean that the treatment was unsuccessful, as the lemtrada takes time to work, it does not kill off the white ...

Re: CCSVI Evolved and the Missing Infectious Link

I am happy to hear ccsvi is still being researched. I had the treatment done years ago, and it made med better for years. The biggest test of the procedure was all of us travelling abroad having it done, starting to feel better.

You need to post reply. If you choose new topic, it will ask you for a new heading and it will be a new thread.

BTW I think it is mainly the azygos that drains the spinal cord. That is my understanding of it anyway, but I am no expert on this.

I am glad for all who have shown improvements. Wonderful. But going on with your life should include surveillance to assure that restenosis does not result in recurrence. So can you tell me, how you are being tested for this doppler? MRV? clinical examinations? how often? Who is following your prog...

Sorry to hear about your problems. Vertigo issues is absolutley hell. I've had my fair share of them, and know what you are going through. I also suffered a bit of breathingproblems after having my azygos treated. It was uncomfortable but nothing major. Dr. Petrov has got a pretty impressive CV, and...

2 month update

2 month update: I still have vertigo issues, but it is very much reduced. The vertigo issues are easier to deal with when the fatigue and the MS blanket feeling has disappeared. I still have optic nerve issues, but it is not that often and bothersome. My legs hardly ever feel weak anymore. Whatever...
