Many MS patients complain of choking with increased frequency, which may seem like a small problem to some, but it can have deadly consequences.

Swallowing isn’t as simple as it seems — in fact, the process involves about 30 muscles in your mouth and throat and eight of your cranial nerves. So, as you can imagine, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) lesions can interfere at any point in the process, from when you put food in your mouth to when it arrives in your stomach.

When the nerve impulses that make swallowing possible aren’t working correctly, you develop dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing. When this happens, food can pass into your airway and lungs, causing you to choke and cough. Over time, particles of food that remain in the lungs can cause aspiration pneumonia. This, like all types of pneumonia, can be serious, debilitating, and potentially fatal.

Dr. Zamboni’s CCSVI Liberation procedure has shown to help and even eliminate many symptoms of MS as well as progression. Those MS patients who have been liberated attest to the treatments ability to alleviate symptoms. One MSer states that she choked everyday for over 8 years and now 6 months after her liberation; Six months since she chocked on anything.

Bev Sylvestre was not so lucky. Bev lived with MS for 33 years, until at the age of 62 she died of complications from pneumonia and MS. She was on a waiting list for CCSVI liberation; but could not wait anymore.

We hear so much talk about the risks of having treatment; perhaps we should be talking about the risks of NOT having treatment!
