Why "CCSVI" is Surreal

[colros]

There are numerous examples of scientific and medical fraud but I think that CCSVI is probably the most expensive in medical history in terms of direct cost in wasted time and money and its damage to the integrity of the medical profession.

Thanks for the notice Dr Rose, I wouldn't have otherwise seen it.

I found it interesting enough that I'm going to re-post the link.

I can see that you have had a lot of work replying questions, but you have forgotten me. And my question was quite simple. Do you have a reference or all you said was your own conclusion?

This thread's great, I'm really enjoying it. I mean, especially since i had the procedure and, despite no real expectations beyond the hope that my illness might stop progressing, saw a myriad of benefits.

Let's agree that "CCSVI" means "normal variation in head and neck venous anatomy and flow". By definition, then, it is not a disease.

CCSVI is 2 out of 5 parameters outside a range. You cannot redefine the condition.
If you consider it normal, then please, never say again that it does not exist
