koska kyllähän sekin olisi jo iso askel että ne kartoitettaisiin täällä pohjolassa, vaikkei vielä korjattaisikaan.

uskon vakaasti kyllä että tämä ahtaumajuttu on taudin aiheuttaja suurimmalla osalla mäsistä.

mutta jos jollain ei olekkaan missään ahtaumia niin jospa sitten onkin niin että ms-taudilla voi todella olla kaksikin aiheuttajaa...

Auttaiskohan akupunktio?? Tavallinen tai laserakupunktio? Tai kolesterolilääkitys, aspiriini, kalaöljy? Kuvaukseen tai leikkaukseen ei kuitenkaan päästä vuosikausiin.
Kannattaiskohan tilata aika yksityiseltä verisuonikirurgilta? Suomesta tai ulkomailta?

eiks jossain välissä ollut puhetta niistä korva- ja tinnitusvaivoista? nyt flunssan myötä vaivani jossa vasemmassa korvassa veri kohisee, alkoi häiritä enemmän, eli jatkuvasti, ja lueskelin netistä mitä on Pulsatile tinnitus.. (esim http://www.tinnitusformula.com/qtimes/2007/04/pulsatile.aspx )

siellä luki näin: Pulsatile tinnitus usually originates within the blood vessels inside the head or neck region when disturbed blood flow occurs. This results from either increased blood flow or a narrowing of the opening of the blood vessel, both of which result in turbulent blood flow that can be heard in the ears.

ja sit alkoi jo hirvittää..

A series of tests, beginning with an examination of the head and neck by a physician familiar with the condition, through complex imaging techniques, is performed. Individuals who find that the initial imaging results do not reveal abnormalities should insist on further examination and investigation. It is possible to misread or miss these trouble spots that may be tangled in other structures or hidden by bone or other tissue. Newer imaging techniques, such as Magnetic Resonance Angiography and Carotid Artery Ultrasonography, have been employed that help determine the site of the problem in the majority of pulsatile tinnitus cases. The cure rates for pulsatile tinnitus are quite high once the problem area has been identified.

..että kuvantaminen on vaikeaa mutta mahdollista.. ja pitkästä syiden listasta löytyi mm. "twisted arteries". miten ihmeessä tää alkaa kuulostaa ihan ccsvi:ltä? vai kuvittelenko mä vaan... *thump thump* sanoo korvassa.. ihan istuma-asennossakin, ei vain makuulla.

joo tiedän että linkkaamani on blogi, ei lääketieteellinen artikkeli mutten uskaltanut tutkia lisää..

yhtenä syynä sanottiin (jugular-laskimo menee siitä keskikorvan ohi/halki) : 6 – Venous Hum. Patients who are pregnant, anemic, or have thyroid problems, may develop increased blood flow through the jugular vein, the largest vein in the neck. The jugular vein traverses the middle ear and any turbulent flow in the vein can be heard in the middle ear as a “hum” which may or may not fluctuate with the pulse. Correction of the underlying problem generally results in improvement or resolution.

että mitäs ootte tästä mieltä?

Dino ja mariap, This Is MS-foorumilta tuttu Cheerleader on koonnut mielestäni hyvän ohjeistuksen:

"There are many small things you can do to help your vascular health while waiting to be tested or treated for CCSVI. While these actions won't get rid of any venous obstruction, they can help your whole body and maybe slow down some of the reflux and damage from jugular stenosis. Again, I'm not a doctor- these are just some common sense steps you can take right away.

1.Eat a heart healthy diet! Lots of good leafy greens, fruits and veggies. Limit saturated fats (like red meat) and stick to lean, white meat protein. Fish is a terrific choice. Stay clear of man made fats and anything the has too many ingredients (like overly processed foods.) No fructose corn syrup or transfats. Eat a good, whole food diet- like the Best Bet Diet or Dr. Swank's MS Diet.

2.Move as much as you are able. Exercise- whether it is a stationary bike, seated exercise, water aerobics or yoga- is good for your circulatory system and will keep blood flowing.

3.Try to limit stress. Cortisol, the hormone released when we stress out, closes down blood vessels (called vasoconstriction) Prayer and meditation can really help. Laughter actually opens blood vessels up! Try to find joy everyday...with your children, pets, funny movies, good books.

4.Alcohol is OK...but only small amounts. A glass of wine opens up blood vessels a bit...but any more than one drink becomes constrictive.

5.Get some sun on your face. Vitamin D helps the body utilize oxygen and is a vasodilator. If you have no sun in your area, try a sun lamp and take a vitamin D supplement.

6.No more smoking. Sorry. Cigarettes are vasoconstrictors- they close up blood vessels and can make stenosis worse, That's why we've seen so much about smoking and MS in the news lately. Cigarettes actually slow down the immune system...so you'd think they'd be good for MS, if MS was autoimmune! But cigarettes are linked to MS progression. In the CCSVI paradigm, that's because they inhibit good blood flow.

7.Look into inclined bed therapy. Raise the head of your bed about 4 inches. Use a 2x4 board underneath the head of the bed. The jugular veins are the only exit route for blood from the brain back to the heart when we lie down flat. If you sleep tilted up a bit, your vertebral veins can help out. Don't use pillows, this will crimp your neck. Use a board under the bed. It may take a few nights to get used to, but we've been doing it for awhile.

For more information, and to read the science and research behind all this, check out my Endothelial Health program I made up for Jeff- link below. Lots of these things are common sense and part of an overall healthy lifestyle....but it's always good to understand the science behind it.

Terrific = loistava, mahtava. Eli kala ei ole huono vaihtoehto, vaan päinvastoin..  

Onko tämän jo joku linkannut?:

Olisipa mukava lukea koko tutkimus ja uskon että sekin tulee vielä, ainakin fonzione hilaresceren sivustolle. Aiemmin ollut pohdintaa että onko operaatiolla vaikutusta leesioihin ja tuon lyhyen abstraktin kerronnasta voi päätellä että magneettikuvissakin on havaittu positiivinen efekti:

CCSVI endovascular treatment significantly improved MS clinical outcome measures, especially in the RR group: the rate of relapse-free patients changed from 27% to 50% postoperatively (P < .001) and of MR Gad+ lesions from 50% to 12% (P < .0001). The Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite at 1 year improved significantly in RR patients (P < .008) but not in PP or SP. Physical QOL improved significantly in RR (P < .01) and in PP patients (P < .03), with a positive trend in SP (P < .08). Mental QOL showed significant improvement in RR (P < .003) and in PP (P < .01), but not in SP.

Vuoden seurannassa erityisesti RR-muotoa sairastavilla hyvin positiivinen vaikutus. PP ja SP-muodoissa vähemmän.
