Below is what I was told via email today, when I questioned if Prof T would be scheduling treatment if deemed necessary. I have an appointment early to mid may for an initial consult.Downunder wrote:Elaine, did you hear for a fact that they are trying to close Prof T down?
They also provided me contact details for the surgeons in Sydney and Adelaide.I have just spoken with Professor Thomson and he has informed me that he is allowed to meet with the patient's that have already been booked in for a consult but the hospital would like him to stop performing the procedure until after he comes back from his overseas leave so that they can review the cases that he has already done.

einstein a go-go
hhhmmmmm,
was having an informal chat with a friend tonight. While we were chatting about the "liberating" experiences I've had lately, she reminded me that she is regularly on the radio waves discussing science issues, and found the progress of science surrounding MS to be fascinating. Can't believe I forgot this! I've made small contributions to the program before...this program just slipped my brain-fogged MS mind.
Anyway, we agreed that a story on the vascular nature of MS would be great fodder for a future show. So anyway, I'll let everyone know if this comes about. If it does, it'll be part of the "Einstein A Go-Go" program on RRR, one Sunday 11am-noon (102.7 FM).

Follow the description in the second part of the posting i.e.:

If it still doesn't work then it may be a browser issue on your PC.

howdy all,
had my follow-up, post-procedure visit with Prof T today. He is so enthused about continuing to help us, jumped on the daily notes l'd kept for the last 5 weeks and was utterly chuffed at improvements l'd noted.
when l asked if it was true that the hospital had asked him to stop performing angioplasties om MS patients, he appeared totally unfazed, commented that he was rather more senior in the hospital hierarchy than the neuros trying to slow proceedings and said that, based on the results of my second doppler, that he was happy to repeat the angioplasty every 6 months if need be until my right jug remained open. BLESS HIS LITTLE COTTON SOCKS!
the absolute best thing we can do now is provide prof T with the ammunition he needs to present to the hospital upon his return from o/s mid-May. by ammunition, l mean a documented diary/list of improvements you've noticed. only in that way can he present an undeniable and iron-clad case. for those of us with CCSVI and MS, it's the least we can do.
congrats to all who've had the procedure and let's all of us do our little bit to keep pushing for those who haven't YET.
cheers, nico

Nico - that is brilliant to hear! Just so wonderful! Yes I have been keeping a diary and I see him for my follow up 18th May. My follow up doppler showed my right had renarrowed (one third what it should be) but the left (which was worse) is draining beautifully so overall drainage is still good. I expect the right will need another balloon so was so happy to hear he will do it again!! Yay team! Will do another video next week but just to say I am going from strength to strength as the weeks go bynico wrote:the absolute best thing we can do now is provide prof T with the ammunition he needs to present to the hospital upon his return from o/s mid-May. by ammunition, l mean a documented diary/list of improvements you've noticed. only in that way can he present an undeniable and iron-clad case. for those of us with CCSVI and MS, it's the least we can do.

Hi everyone. nico i am so glad you asked prof T that ? because he is a blessing to us all. I have been keeping a daily diary myself, my improvements may seem small to some people but are wonderful to me. this is kinda embarrasing but I have had bowel problems for a long time I always have to have something to go,,, well not today , yeah. I slept until 8;00 A.M this morning my brain fog seems to be going away a couple other small improvements and it has only been 3 days since the procedure.
All the Best
Val
All the BestVal
