Default CCSVI exam for me

I really am quite confused and dont know for sure if I believe in CCSVI or if I think its not quite what we had hoped it to be, but I am now sitting in such bad shape, that I have decided ..."what do I have to lose to go talk to the man?" so, off I go on Jan 31st.
I will keep you updated.

As I am so irritated by others in the past. I promise to post a video before. IF and that is a LARGE IF I chose to have this procedure done, I will post another PRE video followed by a one month, two month...with written updates.

I ran into a woman named Tracey that had this done, and she is the one that gave me the courage. Her sx are not gone, but much better. She didnt jump off the table and run down the hall, but she doesnt need her cane anymore. She didnt sit up and cry "I can see!" but within a few weeks her vision started to clear. She was blind in one eye, and had bad vision in the other.

I am going to TALK to the interventional Radiologist who does the Zamboni method at the big girl hospital, and see what he has to say about MY veins. I dont think I would have the courage to do a stent, but if this could bring back my vision, I may eat broken glass.

Anyone do it? been tested and refused? advice? comments?
