jerkbutt, I am so sad for you, I don't know what to say. I did not know what to think but then last time you posted that she was on two blood thinners? I don't know of any doctors who are putting people on two blood thinners for this, that doesn't seem right. :( Chris, if you post in Dr. Sclafani's...

I had the procedure done in Bulgaria on May 5th, some ten weeks later I have not experienced any improvements. To the contrary, my disability was 6.0, I would guess I am atleast a half point more progressed.

Cant type any more, sorry for the bad news

There is more to this story than a simple balloon. Like a stent. IF they would start doing procedures instead of just arguing we could all find out sooner than later. Its obvious while this turf war continues so does our progression. What does this mean? Yes, thats it! We'll be sarcastic, that helps.

That would be very interesting as I am curious to know if anyone has truly had significant, life changing benefit as a result of their treating a diagnosis of ccsvi. I was treated in Bulgaria and would love to have a place to chat about it. After my treatment I believe ccsvi is caused by other condi...

I am in Sofia, Bulgaria, at Tokuda Hospital. I agreed to come and give Dr Grozdinski my business and trust and so I arrived on 4 May and was tested the following day via Doppler ultrasound. This was done in a room off of a hallway where there were obviously four or five technicians with the doctor w...

This would be good but aggrevating actually as I just dropped $6500 for business class tickets to Bulgaria for diagnosis and treatment if neccessary + $6850 = over $13000 that I may not have needed to spend.

SHIT
