You are brave, Lady! I hope you have good results. We'll be waiting for your report! :hug:

Brave my butt thats AWESOME Lady!!!!!!

What was size of left & right sides???

Awesome Awesome Awesome!!!

Thank you for the video Dej. Did the IR's voice keep popping in and out on it? I got most of his discussion, very interesting how these drs. have a light bulb minute. :)

I have been studying this for almost two years. To me, it is tangible evidence. We have only had guess work on drugs, trials, mice, chemo's, genetics, birth date, virus, environment, etc.

There is more risk taking these potent drugs, or crossing my street, then this procedure. You only end up with a Band-Aid and no stitches, and you are awake. No anesthesia. A small amount of IV sedation.

Twink, I'm not brave. I did my homework that's all.:)

Eddie, the left jugular was totally blocked, it also had many fibrous webs inside, so I met the criteria of at least two out of five for CCSVI. I may have more.

If blocked, you have backflow back to the brain and collateral veins trying to do the work. They marked many spots during the test. They even saw my Thyroid nodules. I said, I know about them.

My IR didn't have to go any further to explain more. I asked a million questions. I will get a pre and post CD after the procedure. The IR will explain everything at that time.

They don't use the MRV/MRI anymore. It is too expensive, ins won't pay for it, and it doesn't show enough evidence. It does show the Azygous, but so does the procedure.

If the jugulars are blocked then the rest will be tested during the Liberation procedure, called "Jugular Venogram."

Sally, I hope your friend will post on here too. I am an open person. I think my life history is on NT. ;) I have volunteered for drug testing in the past, and the risk is greater doing that, IMO.

If it rids me of a few crapola symptoms it would be terrific. I don't expect too much, so that way I can't be disappointed. I just know a blockage anywhere is not healthy, and has risk if it is not taken care of.

If it were a blockage in my leg, it would be corrected immediately. That is very serious too. So same goes..

Everyone else, thank you. I will be feeling you all holding my hand. :grouphug:

I just have to go lay down now, this flu is knocking me out.
later..

((((((Lady))))) Feel better soon, please.

Hope this procedure is all that you want/hope it to be.
Wishing you my very best.
How exciting!!!!

As for the flu-yuk, and hope you are feeling much better.
Linda

lady,

wow, things are ganging up on you.
i hope the flu and infection go away soon and you feel better.

good luck on the procedure coming up.
i hope it goes well and the blockage is cleared.

sending you healing prayers and wishes.

I hope it all goes well for you.

Whilst I'm sure we've all looked up on youtube for the examples of patients' progress, it will be facinating to 'know' someone who's getting this done. That way we can get the REAL truth, warts and all about how it goes.

Wishing you every success.

Good luck Lady! I hope it gives you improvement or at least stabilization. :hug:

Praying you feel better soon and that all goes well.

Hey Lady. Feeling any better today?
