Hello from the UK

Post by Daisy3 »

I have been stalking this site for at least two months now.
My husband is currently being diagnosed for MS, and I learnt about CCSVI from here. Very optimistically, I asked his Neuro if we could have an MRV done-which he did do despite being scathingly nasty about Zamboni etc. The results came back yesterday, and they say its a normal scan.
I am sceptical as I don't know if the right scan was done, and if they simply do not know what to look for. I have a cd of the scan, and I am itching to get a second opinion.
We have only been married six months and this is quite a shock:-(

hi daisy, welcome to TIMS. there are plenty of CCSVI 'expert patients' here to help you out. what if you put your hubby's scans up in one of the CCSVI topics where others have done so? when you look at the CDs, do you see anything suspicious?

good idea. what format are the scans in? when i get an mri cd it's in its own kind of software and i have to screen shot the images i want to show online, and save them as jpg files in paint or similar program.

Not sure,

Also I have been asked to send the CD off for a second opinion by a mri imaging group connected with Dr Haacke. I think I will do that and see if they can tell me anything useful. I won't put it up just yet..lol..I don't even know how to..

Thanks for your help jummylegs:-)
