From BBC News... Multiple Sclerosis Blood Blockage Theory Tested It is just fantastic to see major news organizations picking up this important story and reporting on the developments...

Also, this interesting video...

I've got a contact who works for "The One Show" (UK current affairs programme) who I've emailed to ask if they can do a feature on it. I really hope they'll cover it as it's on at 7pm UK time so lots of people watch it.

My friend is seriously considering taking Tysabri. He's had MS for 8 years which he's managed mainly with the "best bet diet" and vitamins. Unfortunately he had a bad attack earlier this year which has scared him enough to let his neurologist convince him to try this drug. The side effects of Tysabri sound horrendous (1 in 1000 chance of developing PML). Unfortunately he has tried so many alternative treatments that he thinks Tysabri could be the answer. He's made up his mind and I don't think he even looked at the Canadian article I sent him. Wish there was some way I could convince him but I don't think he wants to speak to me at the moment! He's fed up with people telling him what he should be doing and I can appreciate this. I'm hoping that if Dr Zamboni's discovery gets enough coverage in the UK, he might eventually find out what it's all about through other means.
