Update On My Leg Vein Ablation Quest

Today is one week since I first went to see the general surgeon about my leg veins. At that appointment I told him that I had recently underwent CCSVI treatment and a Doppler of my legs that showed venous insufficiency. He had not heard of CCSVI so didn't want to jump into vein ablation treatment before he knew what my whole issues were. He said to come back and see him in a week while he researches CCSVI. Meantime he gave a prescription for daflon 500 CLICK HERE I didn't know what it was as I had never heard of it. That night I took 2 pills at dinnertime. I didn't notice anything different. The next day I took 2 pills with brunch and WHAMO! My legs werent heavy anymore and I could walk faster and had more stamina and didn't need my cane!! I also noted that colours were more vivid and everything in general seemed to be more 3D like. It was BIZARRE!!! A good kind of bizarre, though.

So for the last week I have been taking daflon: two pills with breakfast and two pills with dinner. It is not a cure all but it certainly helped! This morning I went back to see the surgeon. He found out that CCSVI is related to the central nervous system and so the leg vein issue was unrelated. He said he recommends vein ablation treatment for me!!! I told him how the daflon affected me, especially the part about the vision and he said that was good because it might be helping my CCSVI issues and he wants me to stay on the daflon! I am now waiting for a phone call to find out where and when my ablation is. It's been a long, long road to this point! 10 years I have suffered with these leg problems and was told it was just MS. 10 years!!! What a crying shame! The past is the past, however. Now I can see light at the end of the tunnel and it's GLORIOUS!
