Hi Sabrina,

My name is Carol Moore. I have had MS since 2008. I have recently had a procedure done called the Atlas Orthogonal to fix the flow of my cerebral spinal fluid (CSF}. This procedure is not new but Dr. Scott Rosa is the only person in the world using the FONAR upright MRI diagnostics to develop the treatment protocol that will work for you. My suggestion to you is to contact Dr. Damadian's assistant Ellen at FONAR and request that you get scanned. Your results will be sent to Dr. Rosa for analysis. They are looking for a structural abnormality in your vertebrae that is preventing the CSF to flow. Something as simple as whiplash can cause an abnormality. In my case, I broke by C2 vertebrae at age 18. If Dr. Rosa sees a structural abnormality could be addressed by the AO Treatment, you will go to Rock Hill, NY Monday - Thursday. The first day will be your initial adjustment and then the next three days will be check ups twice a day to ensure you are holding the adjustment. The treatment does not involve drugs and it is completely painless. You will experience minor muscle soreness as your spine adjusts.

Since receiving my treatment on June 18, 2012, I have stopped taking my MS drugs and all of the other support drugs to enhance comfort or endurance due to the MS symptoms. Stress and heat are big triggers for my flares. This month I began a new job and put in very long days. Instead of getting exhausted and entering a new flare, I have gotten stronger each day. I tell you this because this month has convinced me that I am healing.

The reason Dr. Rosa's treatment will work is because there is a theory that people like me with MS have a structural obstruction forcing my CSF fluid to back up into my brain. My body then believes there is a foreign body that requires attack, hence the lesions. If you fix the obstruction, the attack stops.

The sooner you pursue this, my opinion is that you can avoid the MS symptoms, drugs and painful diagnotics used to diagnose the disease (like a spinal tap). As an added benefit, if you suffer from back pain or headaches, they will be greatly improved if not completely disappear.

I hope this helps and good luck.
Carol
