HUBBARD REGISTRY-YELLOW DOTS

David1949 · Post by **David1949** » Sun Oct 10, 2010 8:03 pm

I sent letters by snail mail to two of the doctors in Michigan, one in Warren and one in Royal Oak. The one in Warren sent back an email that said:

"David,

I am in receipt of your recent letter!
We are working with the hospital to arrange a local program. When prepared for the requ. of the registry, we will contact all those, who like yourself are interested in thier treatment locally.

Thank you for your inquiry!"

I haven't heard back from the doctor in Royal Oak yet.

JCB--I tried a couple times to pm you but I guess I'm having no luck. Was wondering if you would share the Dr. you're using for follow up. I thought it might be 1 of the 3 I rcvd. to check with. You can pm if you'd like. Thanks.

Thanks Nellie, Cece, everyone. I'll get in touch with the Hubbard Fn for more info on the Cary, NC doc.

If you would like to see how one of these sites are coming along, we can provide you with the name of the doctor nearest you that has already expressed an interest, and you can call them directly.

Wow the list of Hubbard sites has indeed shrunk dramatically. I'm sure all of us are concerned about that. Rather than each of us flooding Hubbard with inquiries can we delegate one person from Thisisms to ask them what happened?

David--I think I know. Arlene from Hubbard told me so many haven't shown anymore interest. I'm sure they got to the point that they dropped them. It is reality I guess but disturbing.

I'm wondering if they lost interest when they figured out they were going to have to get their hospital to adopt the IRB.

JCB · Post by **JCB** » Mon Oct 11, 2010 10:47 am

I don't think we should try and read too much into this. What I am taking out of it is that there are a lot of IR's in the US that are interested.

Let's keep them interested!

The IRB is for diagnostics only using the Haacke protocol. There is no treatment IRB. This doesn't sanction anyone providing treatment.

?? really?? was treatment just optomistically assumed?

Treatment might occur, it's just not under the IRB. It's all very confusing and means it's important to fully vet whomever you go to to do the procedure.

This is what it says at Hubbard's website:

"On Sept. 2 the Hubbard Foundation received final, non-conditional,
national IRB approval for testing and treatment of CCSVI (chronic
cerebrospinal venous insufficiency) at locations around the U.S."
(Emphasis mine)

Source: http://hubbardfoundation.org/CCSVI_mult ... ction.html
See last section on the page titled Additional Information.

So according to Hubbard the IRB approval does include treatment.

David,

I'm checking into this. I'm the founder of the CCSVI Alliance and we've discussed the irb ad nauseum and met w/Haacke and Hubbard a couple of weeks ago. I just threw this back to my fellow board members because I don't want to be giving false info.

I'll let you know what I hear.
