I have been wanting to write about this for so long.
I think I have a bit of time so let's do it!
Dr. Zamboni in Italy made the discovery that MS may not be an auto immune disease after all.
After much research he found that the MS brain had very high iron deposits. Digging deeper he found that the blood was also not draining properly from the brain.
This prompted him to perform MRI and ultrasound testing on the veins and arteries.
The reason for his curiosity was that his wife had been diagnosed and his specialty was neurology. he wanted to become a surgeon but he himself has a neurological problem that has left him with minimal mobility in his hands.
Any who, his discovery was all in the jugular artery.
With many test subjects he found that all MS patients had blocked arteries in the neck.
the ultrasounds show that the blood does in fact try to flow back to the heart but either can't get by or only a small amount does which is the reasoning for the high iron deposits. These deposits are because the blood that typically leaves your brain goes to your kidney's to get cleaned up and then back to the heart.
This is what I'll be getting looked at tomorrow!
