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!
