Good news something that all of us are not used to hearing.I am watching you and someone in my family going to Albany for this!I will be updating everyone on her progress.Hope that this really works for you I really do....Jim

best of luck on this! i have no idea what it's all about but now i will look!

Thank you for your well wishes.

No Cyn, I am not better yet. this bug is kicking my buttski. I just want to lay down and let the flu bug stop bugging me. I think the UTI is getting a bit better, but still uncomfortable. (sigh)

I am still fighting, trying not to relapse. Why did I have to get sick and need steroids when I can't have them before the procedure?

What kind of luck is hanging over my head? I am resting so much now. Before it hit I couldn't sleep, now that's all my body wants to do. I guess you have to be careful what you wish for, ya think?

Thanks Jim, I pray your family member see great improvements. Some get it right away, some it takes times, up to six months.

This is not a trial. It is the Liberation Procedure, with data collection to show the naysayers that this really helps so many people. It is in the early stages (two years). Many of us can't wait ten years for the NMSS and some clinical trials to agree.

We know it works. Besides, who needs to have blocked jugulars? That's not normal even in a non-MS body. If it's broken, it needs to be fixed.

Thanks Kajun, Wiz, Pud's friend, Nurse Nancy, Linda, Sally, Judy, Laura, Lynn, Dej, Kitty, Twink, Eddie, and all of you who read my thread and said thanks. You don't know how important your thoughts and well wishes mean to me.
Thank you all.

You're awesome Lady!!! I eagerly await your updates ! Hugs xoxo

2 cents - the fact your LEFT was smaller/restricted more then right really means something because pharmacist (not doctor go figure) told me Left is bigger then Right cause it's the side your heart's on.

UTI - Macrobid i've been using as needed. It's a antiSeptic, not biotic. Helps. 100 or 200mg.

Thanks Laura, oxoxox backatcha.

Hi Eddie, I had an ear infection, sinus, fever, chills and joint aches. My virus went bacterial and I got an UTI too (bacterial). So my anti-b's are really broad spectrum anti-bacterial medication to knock out all bacterial infections It is Tetracycline 500 mg, 4 times a day.

Powerful for me. It knocks the crapola out of me too. Side effect is weakness, well I want to sleep as soon as I take it. Makes me very thirsty too.

Finally my ear popped, not clogged anymore so I guess it is working. I can't tell about the UTI until I go back for a check-up. It feels better but I may need another week of meds, I don't know.

I haven't have a UTI in over 20 years. Microbid or Gantanol used to work for the cystitis and pain. I am allergic to both now. Thanks for your ideas (2 cents).

I hope you're feeling a little better today..

I had my CCSVI procedure on May 31, 2010 and it has absolutely changed my life. I have had dramatic symptom improvement. Hoping you get the same results! Good luck.
