My Quest to Test Zamboni's Findings

Well I haven't written in a bit over a month and a lot has happened since then. First, my daughter's birthday, my housekeeper left back to her home country and I am awaiting my new housekeeper who is arriving later then I expected. It's been tough on me without the extra help. I feel my sleep has been very disturbed and I have felt very low on energy, but i still feel 2010 is going to be an incredible year! I feel it will be a year of change. So despite my lack of good sleep and energy levels, I am hopeful. When the new housekeeper comes i will settle back into my life and start working on my business again. Right now my life is all about my kids.

At the beginning of the month I went to see my Neurologist about Zamboni's findings. As I had expected, he dismissed it. I sat there while he read the entire article and then he gave me unclear reasons why it didn't make sense. I told him I would see a Vascular surgeon about it and he recommended one to me.

So on December 30, I went to see a Vascular surgeon about Zamboni's findings. I was very excited to see what the doctor had to say. After I explained to him I have MS and showed him the article explaining Zamboni's findings, He found it interesting and checked my neck veins in a machine in his office. He was pretty surprised when he did in fact find that the vein on the right side of my neck was indeed narrowing. He decided to let me take an angio ct scan neck and brain. I did that about a week ago. It was a strange procedure. I had an injection which made my body feel a bit heated at one point and for some reason I was very nervous doing this test. Then i laid down and my brain and neck were put under a machine which did the proper testing. The whole procedure took about 30 minutes and it costed double the cost of the usual MRI. Thank God for insurance! The results should be out in a weeks time. I hope, with the will of God, I am on the path to great health.
