Chronic Cerebro Spinal Venous Insufficiency
Sanoviv Medical Institute is the team I chose for my CCSVI testing and procedure and I’d love to tell you more about it. Sanoviv is a licensed hospital with world class diagnostics and a “5 star spa! It is located 90 minutes south of San Diego, California and is truly holistic in it’s unique approach to health care addressing the mind, body and spirit of their guests. Sanoviv focuses on determining the cause of the problem before treating the symptoms.
I have trusted my health to the team at Sanoviv for more than nine years and in April of 2010 I returned to Sanoviv and was tested for CCSVI (Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency). Sanoviv’s program includes follow-up visits – an important component when choosing a medical team. My results showed significant blockage in the azygos and jugular veins which qualified me as a candidate for the ”Liberation Treatment.” To watch a video on CCSVI see this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_RXs5dPh6E .
The Angioplasty procedure was successfully performed in April 2010. The results were beyond my greatest hopes with the following page outling my observations within the first week following the treatment:
UPDATE 2010-04-28:
(Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency) www.janmills.net Sanoviv Referral code JM100172
1.Before: Hands, Fingers & Feet were almost completely numb and thick feeling.
After: Significant increase in feeling in my palms, fingers and feet with dexterity in both
Lifestyle Result: Drinking glass with condensation no longer slips through my grip as well as more accuracy in typing now that I can feel the keys on my computer. Handling pills such as each small Usana capsule or flipping through a magazine are now possible. When I walk on the lawn in front of Sanoviv overlooking the ocean, I can actually feel the grass below my feet.
2. Before: Ankles & Toes were stiff & limited in movement resulting in “tin soldier” walking style
After: Able to flex/stretch my feet and stand on my toes
Lifestyle Result: Able to reach up to items beyond my height and do heal/toe rolling walk – also able to safely return to driving a car and now I can tap my feet to music.
3. Before: Walking was either limited to walker/cane or restricted to wheelchair – adopting a small lap dog that could ride on my lap in the chair and keep me company when restricted to household
After: Able to walk independently without the use of a wheelchair, walker or cane
Lifestyle Result: Looking forward to taking my new puppy for walks in the outdoors
4. Before: Turning my Head even slightly to the Left caused dizziness & room spins
After: Woke up the morning after the procedure and was able to look out the window on my left side and see dolphins swimming in the waves in front of Sanoviv – absolutely no dizziness
Lifestyle Result: Able to return to driving now that I can shoulder check without fear of pinching blocked jugular vein
5. Before: Speech pace was very slow and restricted in pace/vocabulary – limitation in speeches
After: My husband and physician noticed in the recovery room an accelerated pace and fluidity with my conversation
Lifestyle Result: More dynamic and compelling as a professional speaker & health coach
6. Before: Fatigue was overwhelming and felt like I was moving and thinking through “quick sand” in the afternoon and evenings.
After: Energy level is significantly increased and I feel as the “brain fog” has lifted
