CCSVI Losing steam?
Recently, CCSVI seems to have exploded onto the scene. I became really excited reading the blogs and watching you-tube videos of all the people who have had corrective procedures done.
Recently though, it seems people are backing off the rhetoric.
Is the CCSVI rocket crashing back down to earth or, if you'll permit me to extend the metaphor, can it now assume a low earth orbit.
Believe me...no one wants this to work more that me but I may be setting myself up for major disappointment if this fizzles out.
Anyone share these concerns?
I have done quite a bit of independent research as well. I will tell you that I have seen definite similarities with other iron- based brain diseases and MS- some of the symptoms are idential. Also, if you are familiar with the Swank diet (which bans red meat for the first year), you will see that people did feel better (myself included- I was on it for two years and have just resumed again)- could it be because you are taking less iron in (and therefore less to remain in the brain due to the reflux?)?
At the end of the day, people are getting the treatment and seeing real results. Real, tangible results. I have not had any real results yet dispite a myriad of treatments, so I figure I can't go wrong here. Besides, if I have blocked veins responsible for draining blood out of a major organ, I think it is a good idea to get that fixed anyway, right? How can it be a bad thing?
Keep reading, keep believing, keep speaking. The more of us that talk, the harder it will be to shut us all up.

That's what I'm hoping for too J...but I'm in Canada so it's been pretty much full steam ahead here...at least in terms of people who have some power talking about it, debating it etc.jackiejay wrote:yes, Bruce...I've noticed the same thing as you.......maybe it's the lull before the storm, so to speak....hope that's what it is....
I do wonder what the "tipping point" will be (to borrow a concept from Malcolm Gladwell).
Be well,

I find it's exciting to be in on the ground floor of what could be such a transformative discovery. I first heard about ccsvi it November and came onboard in January and even in that short time there has been much progress!Hope66 wrote:That's what I'm hoping for too J...but I'm in Canada so it's been pretty much full steam ahead here...at least in terms of people who have some power talking about it, debating it etc.

Dr. Zamboni et al describe what's going on now and there are quite a few interesting things in it, such as:
Dr. Zamboni wrote: I have found something very interesting that the institute that proposed the interferon and had the curiosity to see that, aside for the immunomodulators factor, there is also a vascular one and neurologists have always had the idea that there is this vascular aspect, so I think they are ready to understand this.
I hope the best for you all in your journey and hope to see you on the Tracking Thread.
