I was reading last night on the website ThisisMS. Incredibly informative and up to date with a wide variety of information and "cutting-edge" theories. MS truly is a condition that is receiving strong attention from every direction. While I believe I have been part of the "new truth" of MS, there are many other views and people who believe in their approach/path with every bit as much passion and belief as I do about my healing road.
There is a vaccine made from an ingredient of goat's milk, low dose Naltrexone, the new drug which aids walking by a unique mechanism. There is still strong belief in anti-inflammatory drugs like interferon, Tysabri and newer creations which can be taken orally. There is truly a lot out there and patients are getting benefit. The CCSVI theory is still in its infancy and far from accepted by the medical community. Yesterday, I spoke with a very kind woman with MS who tried to get the MRV done and instead had an MRA(magnetic resonance angiogram) done and it was read by a radiologist who had never heard of the CCSVI theory and did not look at her veins when reading the study. How utterly disappointing.
