Thanks for the feedback
It's surprising that a disease thats been around over 100 years
a) they still don't know whats causes it
b) they haven't found a cure
2.5 million people would wide my wife's drugs without the PSB scheme would cost here a $1000 a month.
Apparently the Canadian MS society is offering funding to Dr's who wish to research it
the US MS Society is taking a wait and see stance more research etc etc
the Aus MS aligns with the US society and is taking a conservative stance
My argument here is how hard would it be to set up and run a clinical trial for this comparatively easy procedure
A get 50 MS sufferers
1) test to see if these MS patients have blocked blood vessels in the brain
2) perform procedure on the test group
3) see if any improvement over time 12-18 months
4) get feedback
5) publish results 2 years max
