Guest guest Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Hi All, I'm a newbie here, looking for information for a friend in Germany. In particular, I would like to learn as much as possible about CCSVI. I've visited several websites, but before I can recommend considering CCSVI, I need to read at least a couple technical research articles published in reputable medical journals that describe the basis of the theory and the evidence that supports it. Can anyone point me to technical information of this sort? Thanks.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Thanks , I ordered the book and will surely have more questions after reading it. Sorry to hear the CCSVI treatment is no longer working for you, but you are obviously grateful for the time you had. I'd like to connect with some of the folks who have had success with the CCSVI treatment.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Hi Glenn, there are German language ccsvi forums. csvi-ms.net is in German, English and French. I also read a lot of the ccsvi threadson thisisms.com but they are in English only. I have been treated twice--once in furt and once in NYC. > > > > Hi Glenn, > > There is a book on Amazon you can read called Ccsvi As the Cause of Multiple Sclerosis: The Science Behind the Controversial Theory (Mcfarland Health Topics) > Marie A. , Elaine A. > Sold by: Amazon.com LLC > > > > (I had the procedure 3 x, for me it was beneficial but the benefits faded, in a few weeks the first time, in 6 months the second time, and then the third time symptoms had come back but my veins were still open.
