Yeah we've seen this one. My conclusion was researchers who haven't shown that they can find CCSVI in anyone probably shouldn't be bragging that they can't find it in CIS.

They did not do venograms. Venograms are the gold standard for CCSVI diagnosis!

All other diagnostic methods are operator dependent.



My daughter had CIS and CCSVI.

Her double candy wrapper twist almost blocked her Azygos..... It was quite dramatic. Her int jugular was less pronounced and may have been overlooked if it wasn't for the reflux it caused.

She is 6 months post angio and completely symptom free. And she had 12 symptoms ! Even her vision is improved and better than 20/20.

Great MegansMom ... Again, we keep seeing the VERY huge importance of the azygos vein ...

I'm not sure why everyone isn't noticing this pattern yet ... some seem to resist my implications of such importance ... but I've seen it too first hand ... as have some doctors.
