It proves we need more in depth studies.

I have my doubts as to blood flow having anything to do with MS and so far no one has had a meraculous cure. Time and more work will tell.

I've been reading a lot of inflammatory commentary about the NMSS on Facebook...the commentators all feel that the NMSS is in bed with pharma and neurologists who don't want to lose business to docs who will treat CCSVI.
I want to see more studies done...both on MS patients and non-MS patients-to see how the stats show stenosis in the veins of both populations.
I'm open minded as to the theory, but I won't allow any cutting on my neck until I see more studies.

I agree with that Debbie. I'm amazed at the number of people getting this done when there is no real evidence that it works yet.
