Hello
I'm new to this site but not to MS, thanks to you I've found out loads of "stuff" and last week sent mails to Drs Simka and Kostechki in an attempt to get myself on a waiting list for CCSVI diagnosis and treatment. So far no response but I guess that's no surprise.

Have to confess I'm somewhat wary of having stents and thought I would go for the balloon option, however reading that there may be a specific stent in the offing is very encouraging, unfortunately I can't find it either.

Thanks to everyone who contributes on this site, great help and encouragement to us all. Linda

Hi Linda

My brother (the MSer) also emailed both doctors last week, to get onto the waiting list for an appointment. So far no response either, but what I'm seeing from the threads on this forum is that it appears to be a waiting game and all you can do is wait for the reply.

Hope everything goes well for you.

I wish you all the very best Ally and I look forward to reading your thread.

Can you tell what date you sent your initial email to Dr Simka asking to join the waiting list?

I'm really just trying to get an idea of timeframe.

thanks,
Muriel
