Parkinson and MS cured by surgery (but not CCSVI)
Parkinson and MS cured by surgery (but not CCSVI)
I found this article and I almost fell off my chair.
Dr. Noda discovered 20 years ago a condition he named Cerebellar Thoracic Outlet Syndrome which is due to compression at the base of the neck with resulting decrease blood flow to the brain which he fixed surgically.
This is similar to CCSVI but instead of dilating the blood vessel he just relieved the compression.
Another major difference is that he thought it affected the artery.
In the paper you will see him performing an ultrasound of the neck area.
Maybe he was wrong and the compression was really affecting the venous return, but probably it doesn't matter; either way the brain was not receiving enough blood supply.

I loved his conclusion which is identical to the CCSVI concept several years later: " And we think that the autoimmune phenomena that occur in some of these processes, particularly in multiple sclerosis-are secondary in nature and not the cause, as currently speculated."

Amazing, absolutely amazing. The clues were there, but either overlooked or ignored.Nunzio wrote:I found this article and I almost fell off my chair.

going a step further:
I tried the upper cervical chiropractic adjustment of the Atlas and C1, and
am 90+% better immediately!!
from http://www.upcspine.com/news_vol2_0304.htmIn my opinion TOS, CTOS and CTNVS are the result of an upper cervical subluxation and it follows that correction by specific upper cervical chiropractors can relieve myriad symptoms associated with these syndromes without the need for invasive surgery.

True. Buffalo study might be hinting about this and could be an indirect endorsement of Dr. Noda's discovery. Hope mainstream will embrace this technique going forward.
It is also possible that CCSVI might be the reason not just for MS but for other diseases. Maybe there are 4-5 underlying conditions and these are the causes for quite a few neuro diseases ...
my guess is Parkinson is due to decrease arterial blood flow to the basal ganglia which in turn produces less dopamine while MS is due to venous blockage. Maybe some of the cases which require stenting because of outside compression are related to CTOS but not the ones due to valve disorder or agenesis. CTOS might explain why some people report benefit from chiropractive manouvers.
interesting find

This was taken from another tread, but the test was called normal even though at the end it showed classical signs of CTOS.stranger73 wrote:My husband had the MR venogram of the cervical vessels a few days ago. His nurse called yesterday to let us now that everything is normal.
Today we received report, and i don't understand it. Can anybady
explain to me if this may mean narrowing of veins:
MRV of the brain is within the limits of normal.
No evidence of dural venous sinus thrombosis or AVM is noted.
MRV demonstrates normal flow signal within the intenal and external jugular veins.
Note is made of extrinsic compression of the internal jugular veins in the region of the lower neck and thoracic inlet secondary to hypertophied bilateral sernocleidomastoid muscles.
It might be nice for the radiologist to learn about CTOS
I agree completely, Nunzio. I'm so interested in all this because of my darling man's four neck surgeries to fuse the cervical vertebrae and remove scar tissue. The surgeries were performed at the Mayo Clinic. The last one was in 2005, two years before his PPMS diagnosis. It lasted 12 hours and left his right forearm numb. It still is, five years later.Nunzio wrote:This was taken from another tread, but the test was called normal even though at the end it showed classical signs of CTOS.stranger73 wrote:My husband had the MR venogram of the cervical vessels a few days ago.

To me, it's all more than coincidental.

i totally, totally agree that there could be people that have both problems. myself being one of them. but what do you do? i have brought this up for yrs. haven't found any of the dr.'s interested yet. even now, that ccsvi is out there look at te resistence. i too hope the great dr.'s that are testing and treating ccsvi take a look at this. maybe they are and we're just not aware. i just hope i can just get tested and treated soon for ccsvi and see what that does for me.
I'm praying for you, Blossom. I read your post the other day saying that you're 63. You aren't much older than my darling man and me. I turned 57 in March and he'll be 59 in November. Oh, by the way, I call him "my darling man" because we aren't married. In fact, right now we have a long distance relationship which adds more stress to the situation.blossom wrote:i totally, totally agree that there could be people that have both problems. myself being one of them. but what do you do? i have brought this up for yrs. haven't found any of the dr.'s interested yet. even now, that ccsvi is out there look at te resistence. i too hope the great dr.'s that are testing and treating ccsvi take a look at this. maybe they are and we're just not aware. i just hope i can just get tested and treated soon for ccsvi and see what that does for me.
Anyway, I think that now that the "cat is out of the bag" on CCSVI, it's opened up many more avenues of exploration. To me, and I'm sure to many others, it seems that things are moving at a snail's pace. But really, if you think about it, it's all happening very quickly. I believe it's partly because of the internet (thank you, Al Gore.... For anyone who doesn't know, that's a joke. At one time, our esteemed, former Vice-President said that he invented the internet. lol!....well, I digress).
Keep believing, Blossom. It's going to happen for you. I just know it.
