This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Knowledge & Support Community

... Most recently I finally met with a doctor (vascular surgeon) here in Ontario that was willing to talk to me and actually give me some advice ... ... and lack of local support...

Still here...reading several times a week...still trying to decide when to take the plunge... what needs to be answered to make a decision? I've been thinking of how to answer this question.

You honestly haven't paid enough attention to the conversations if you really believe that. I personally have said nume...

I particularly enjoy the quote at the end from the Government source: “We’re doing it all,” the government source said Doing something, yes....but pretty far from "doing it all" if you ask me! If they were doing it all, I wouldn't be spending a small fortune heading to the US for the proce...

Great shots! Cece, I swear I can see you smiling in all of those images!!

So glad everything went well for you...you deserve it!

Hearing of your experience and knowing the time and thought Dr. Sclafani has put into enhancing this procedure is making my decision a lot easier.

Thanks You!

All the best Cece! You're in great hands!

Can't wait to hear all about your adventure.
