It's Time to Celebrate!

Four years ago I had a great miracle for which I am very thankful to God for. I followed His leadings and listened to His directives as we prayed for answers regarding the truth of the benefits of angioplasty for the symptoms of MS I was experiencing at that time. Extreme fatigue and overheating, MS Hug, difficulties swallowing and choking, cognitive disfunction which was worsening, numbness and tingling in arms, legs and feet, muscle spasms, bladder and bowel disfunction, loss of muscular control. I could not read a book or concentrate on a movie or tv show and I was also dealing with the after effects of Interferon Beta 1a flu like symptoms three to four days per week. I was on three pills a day for bladder control. I could not walk for long distances, I used a shower chair and could only shower one day and wash my hair the next. I used a cane, a rollator and a wheelchair for longer trips. I needed help to clean my house, shop and with my business. I thank God for my family and friends who helped me all those years. I regularly used physiotherapy to treat my muscle loss and balance issues. When I think back today and remember four short years ago when I got into the pool for the first time after my procedure and could feel the water on my body, felt a ladybug crawling on my leg, got stung by a bee and laughed and held my husband's hands and could feel them warm and loving I just cannot beleive everything that has happened to me and I am very grateful. Thank You Lord from the bottom of my heart for this amazing healing proceedure and those who were brave enough to share their experiences with me! God Bless you all. Wendy Swanson

MS Clinic Checkup 16 months Post Angio

Had a great checkup at the MS Clinic this week! No inflammation, no signs or symptoms, eyes good, passed the neuro test! I drove to London by myself, stopped at Costco, loaded up with groceries, parked in the parking garage, ran to the appt. cause I was a bit late. No overheating, no fatigue, no double vision. I drove back home to Sarnia. Gotta love it....and I do!

An Interview with Dr. Arslan at ISNVD

Arslan @ ISNVD 2012 - YouTube

Dr. Arslan now accepting Canadian patients in Chicago.

FROM NICKY BEAGLE WATTS:

For those of you looking for an interventional radiologist, Dr. Bulent Arslan of Rush University Hospital in Chicago is accepting patients. He has performed over 300 CCSVI procedures (in Tampa, FL and recently moved to Chicago), and is a wonderfully compassionate and caring IR. They are also accepting Canadian and other international patients for a reasonable fee at the Radiology Clinic. Here is the information he sent me yesterday:

Rush Hospital agreed to have a reasonable pricing for un-insured patients and they will provide all necessary supportive services to those patients. So yes, as of last week we will be happy to get Canadian/international patients here. You can give them my email for initial contact. Bulent_arslan@rush.edu

Also our clinic number for scheduling is: 312-563-3105

Dr. Bulent Arslan did all 3 of my CCSVI procedures and I highly recommend him. Good luck and God Bless you all~

 

 

Dr. Bulent Arslan also did my procedure last year with great success! Blessings Wendy
