CCSVI returned on December 2nd 2010…
I had the CCSVI procedure in Tampa, FL on December 1st (just some strength in my right arm and a little better movement in my right foot were improved for about 6 hours), I flew back to MN on December 2nd. No real changes/improvements at all. I was able to get my doppler/ultra sound done here in Minnesota for my two week check up (for my base to be set so they could keep an eye on me). They found I had a huge clot in my right jugular that was preventing any blood flow (my Doctor from Florida is convinced it happened within the first day of my angioplasty). In Minnesota they said would take care of the blood clot and angio my right side again (since my doc in Florida begged them), they noticed my left side was restenosed but would not angio that (they said I would have to go back to Tampa, FL to have that done [politics suck]). So, I have another date in March to go back to Tampa and have the Doc there fix me once again, I am praying this time will go smoother than before. I will keep you posted as things move along. I was taking Vitamin-K and always ate a tone of high-Vitamin-K containing foods so I am really staying extremely light on all of those things in hopes of not having a repeat.

CCSVI testing here I come.
Through all of the side-roads and dead ends it seems like things still linger. So, I have testing and a procedure set-up to happen in six weeks for CCSVI. This is very exciting, my GP is backing me 100% and he seems to think this could very well be IT (as do I). I have to fly out of state and pay cash for the testing but once the results show issues my insurance will cover the procedure. I will post how things are once I get this done (in roughly six weeks).
