Anyone have confirmed July dates yet? I had to change mine from June to July and haven't heard back.

Hi everyone,

I'm new here too but got provisional dates for Bulgaria in Sep/ Oct. Very excited! Just wondering, would anyone have an outline of costs for there?

Thanks

From Dr. Grozdinski....

I remind you that the cost of hospitalization and diagnosis is 3000 euro and treatment - dilation / stent - 2000 euro, or total - 5000 euro. You can pay by bank transfer, by credit card or cash.

Thank you so much pinksapphire. Overall cost seems good, and accommodation price is amazing, but the cost of diagnosis seems like a lot?

Thanks.

Hi all,

I thought the cost of diag was a lot, because if they dont find anything 3000 euros is too much compared to elsewhere. I thought the price for stents etc was really good. I wonder if they have got the prices mixed up.

Well the cost equals around $7500 Canadian. I already had testing done at False Creek in Vancouver, B.C and I do have CCSVI. My right internal jugular has a flow problem. In Poland it is $10,000. So I'm not complaining

Hi pink,



The total price for everything is fantastic, just i find the price for diag
is expensive. Its more expensive than poland , frankfurt etc. I think they
have mixed the price around ie should be 2000 euros diag, 3000 euros procedure. It just concerns me paying 3000euros for scans then finding out they have not found anything.




take care

Hi Alan,

Did the doctor in Frankfurt gave you the reports of the tests?

Hi,
Yes, was given a copy of the MRV on a CD, haven't looked at it yet though.

Thankls Alan,

I'm to frankfurt in May. Do you think it's a bad experience you had there?

Thankls Alan,

I'm to frankfurt in May. Do you think it's a bad experience you had there?

Hi,
No, not a bad experience at all.
They were very professional and knew what they were looking for, just a little disappointed that I couldn't have treatment.

Why don't you want to wait some weeks and go to krankfurt and not to Bul.garia?

Why don't you want to wait some weeks and go to krankfurt and not to Bul.garia?

I'm just not convinced that they will continue doing the procedures there, they are under a lot of pressure from the heads of the hospital who do not agree with the whole CCSVI theory.
I didn't want to risk losing my Bulgaria appointment as they are quickly getting booked up there.

Well, my flights are booked. I'll have to wait and see....

[SofiaK]

I was hoping someone can help me please. I live in Canada.

I have been living with MS sincee 16 years old. I'm 38 now and I can't walk. I must get treatment. I know places offer testing for CCSVI, but Bulgaria is also treating.

Anyone have experience with treatment in Bulgaria? Please share.
Thank you.

SofiaK,
I believe he's done a few local cases but he's just starting up this month with international patients, if I have that correct.
We don't really have much info just yet.
best wishes,

p.s.
Poland has two clinics as well

Ven,

I think there are many people who travel immediately. I am not, but I did think about it. I understand that issues like blood thinners etc. are really not a problem for flying.

hey
Thanks a lot for your replay...Wish you a good day...
do you know anyone that already did the ccsvi in sofia??
Thanks a lotjavascript:emoticon(':D')
