My MS Specialist, at KU Med Center, although interested enough (in 2009 or 2010, I think) to seriously consider applying to be one of the sites/physicians to conduct a research study on CCVSI has, at my last several visits, been very wary about it now.
She believes there are still too many unknowns (ie: does MS cause the vein blockage, or does the vein blockage cause MS, etc, etc) and too many risks.
My MS is not at a stage, even though I currently receive disability (SSDI) that I need to start trying risky, unproven procedures.
I'm not telling others what to do. But, just sayin'... CCVSI is not for me, at this point.
