Lucy After an in depth discussion with my Neurologist this might not be the perfect solution.

Out of the 65 patients that received the treatment from Dr. Zamboni 50% relapsed within 5 years. This is with the angioplasty procedure.

My Neurologist knows the doctor in Stanford doing the treatment but with a metal mesh tube stent.......

There's been one death.

With the stent in place you would have to take blood thinners to prevent a common occurrence of clots.

With MS's balance issues there's potential of bleeding to death.

This is a piece of the puzzle not the cure.

But it's a big clue and Buffalo is the biggest clinical research going. They are starting with Pediatric MS and up!
