    Dr. Diana discusses vascular abnormalities (and their treatments) found with EDS and dysautonomia. Does CCSVI mean “angioplasty is needed”? Let’s discuss the need for systemic treatment.

    I assume the systemic treatment is something you’re still working on & is NOT released yet?

    My neurologist is sending me for a CT Angiogram of the head/neck next Wednesday. I expect it to be abnormal, but want to address it properly without angioplasty!

    Right you are, Prettytired! Pedaling as fast as I can over here! I hope I was able to speed this up by using my body as a guinea pig! You will enjoy hearing about my “mis-steps” and what happens when too much of any one medication is ingested. 😉 But I REALLY want us to “fast-track” this. OK, back to work I go! 🙂

    Thank you for all the hard work you are doing to solve this thing Dr. Diana! I am patiently waiting for the day when you release your findings. Anything I can do to help with the trials, please let me know! I’ll be a willing guinea pig too, just live too far away from you!

    Thanks so much, McKenzie! I WISH you were closer! But patients really needed to be close by for the testing… (How brave of you to offer, knowing you were too far away! ha. Big hug…

“Dr. Diana will always hold a very special place in my heart for her selfless devotion to helping everyone, not just the Ehlers-Danlos community. I hate to think what my life would be without her insight and guidance.”
