The title of the article--"A Controversial 'Cure' for MS"--might put people off but since the article is long and appeared in the New York Times Magazine, I thought some people might be interested. Looks as if there've been quite a few page views.

I am a big proponent for having the CCSVI Procedure.

It worked for me, not in a big way but in a small wonderful way that my right leg is much stronger than before, I am more limber than pre-CCSVI procedure.

It is a quantifiable difference that I experienced the day I got back to the hotel room.

It is not a matter of sensing a difference. It worked for me.

So no matter the negativity of this article...it cannot explain my leg being able to move better than it has in several years.

And the risk was minimal.

That's such good news, Aarcyn!

If it works, go for it.
