Dear David, Absolutely. You can forward my emails to anybody you want. Furthermore his poster is not just repudiated. Its illegal. He did not get permission neither from all investigators nor from the Kuwait research authorities.

All papers and results have to be approved by them. Same paper was rejected from ANM after we wrote to them.

The author in his poster is not even part of the study team. Dr. Alrougani met less than 30 % of patients once only. The rest of the patients refused to go to him because they thought he was biased. We used another Neurologist.

Its now more than 2 years since we started the study. 70% of patients feel they have benefited from the procedure. 1 patient got worse, he got thrombosis in one vein and the neurologist thought he got worse because he stopped Tysabri suddenly.

We hope our 2 yrs follow up prospective study will be out soon.

Best regards,

After reading this note to Dr. David Hubbard, you got to question the integrity of some of the Neuroland research posters being presented at ECRTIMS 2012.
