Hello All,
I accidentally found an interesting article about CCSVI, Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency. I had never heard of this and started doing a little digging. It really got my curiosity going. I'll leave the info and you can decide for yourself. I am going next month to Atlanta to be tested. Maybe it help those of you who feel like you are out of options. I will keep you posted on my results.

God Bless

A patient on another group had testing and treatment for this a couple of years ago. Didn't appear to help her in the long run I think. Probably old threads on this topic somewhere in this forum as been discussed before.

Dr Cheney spoke about it during one of his lectures this year. He has an interest in blood supply issues. There is a transript around somewhere of his talk. If I find a link I'll add it to this post.

This blogger mentions it in her report on a visit to Dr Cheney as well
