Re: Interesting new approach to treating multiple sclerosis (MS)

Well summarised Verbier, in fact I'm going to copy your post and email it directly to my friend who has MS. Dr Zamboni stressed that it is important to treat people with relapsing remitting MS as soon as possible as it is not always possible to treat the progressive form in this way. The problem will be getting neurologists to accept a totally radical new theory and to start scanning for blocked veins. If enough sufferers start requesting neck scans, they will have to be offered eventually. The problem will be funding, drug companies will not want to invest in research of this kind as it will eradicate the need for drugs and therefore not profitable.
