My story is the same as many others living with Multiple Sclerosis; it’s not pretty. MS is a chronic debilitating disease that lasts a lifetime. The only treatments available are unpleasant, expensive and the unfortunate reality is, they don’t work!
With MS, my life changed with symptoms like chronic fatigue, bladder control, and loss of mobility, balance and coordination. People often thought I was drunk; staring or making comments. Basic human functions (e.g. walking, balance, coordination, speaking, bowel and bladder control, etc.) become at times insurmountable tasks. Ultimately, these impediments affect virtually every area of life (work, getting a shower, driving, cognitive function, tolerance to heat, light, noise, etc.). Your abilities and life in general start to devolve and your scope of involvement in the world becomes much smaller, isolating you from friends, social activities, community events, physical activities, etc.; all the things that we identify with being a healthy, happy functioning human being. Everything becomes more difficult – period. You get the idea. Recently; I was told that I should not work and I am on the last treatment available to me. The next step of this devolution was going to be a wheelchair.
Thankfully, I was able to participate in a clinical trial of CCSVI and my life changes again in a very good way! I travel to the Clinic of the heart in Cabos SanLucas, Mexico with my friend (who has MS) and my sister-in-law, who is a Critical Care Nurse. I didn’t know what to expect going to a foreign country not knowing the language or the medical system. It turns out I had nothing to be afraid of; or anxious about!
At the Clinic of the Heart Dr. Moguel and his team of specialists are performing the CCSVI Liberation Procedure. I couldn’t have been more delighted and surprised with the small, clean and proficient clinic and its excellent staff. Everyone on staff was sincere, professional, attentive and caring. I felt reassured as soon as I walked through the door; language was no barrier even though I don’t speak a word of Spanish. The first day I was examined by a Neurologist, had an MRI and a Doppler Ultrasound. The day of my Liberation Procedure I was taken into the Cath Lab where it’s very cold because of the equipment. Dr. Moguel begins the cauterization going in through the groin; I could feel him unblocking the viens in my neck! After the procedure I went to recovery, I’m lying there and feel my feet and hands are hot! I started to think something’s wrong here!? Then as I became more awake I realize that’s what my hands and feet used to feel like years ago! The next day I didn’t need my cane, my fatigue was gone and my walking, balance, coordination, speaking, bowel and bladder control was much better!! My friend who used a cane since 1992 didn’t need her cane either! This is a truly amazing and life changing experience for me, I feel blessed. I would recommend this Clinic with its exemplary staff without hesitation I honestly have never met doctors like this in my life! I owe these beautiful people a debt of gratitude. Their skill, professionalism, and compassion made this a wonderful experience. Many thanks to Dr. Moguel and his team!!!

As a 54 year old woman with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis I was getting really anxious to find something that would stop my MS and help give me a better quality of life.I began research into CCSVI information in November.
I began signing up for every place that was offering at least diagnosis,in the hopes it would lead me towards the procedure.
Suddenly,I found the clinic in Los Cabos.I signed in very quickly and was accepted to go on June 14th.

That was the trip that changed the course of my future!
Amerimed,Andres Brakke,and Dr.Raphael Moguel are my new found heros for sure.
I had blockages,and a valve problem which was corrected within no time.The staffing at the Clinic were all wonderful,very caring and excited for us all.
The next day I went out in the sun,swimming in the pool,for the first time in at least fifteen years. My intolerance to heat was gone.My balance was better,my feet were warm.I did not have tinnuitis,or brain fog. I felt like it must feel to be 100%,but to me it was 1000%.I could even jump.

Dr. Moguel was able to restore all my functions,and send me home a new woman with a completely new outlook on my life.
The treatment I had at the clinic was amazing.Mr. Andres Brakke,the administrator was so helpful and sincere,and Dr. Moguel was incredibly professional while being very friendly,excited and concerned.

I strongly recommend going there for the CCSVI procedure if you get the chance. It is also a beautiful setting with beautiful people,so you can enjoy yourself while there.

On June 13, 2010 I was enlisted into a clinical trial for CCSVI evaluation and treatment by Dr. Rafael Moguel at Amerimed Hospital in Cabo San Lucas Mexico. Dr. Moguel and the other doctors and staff at Amerimed Hospital were completely professional and competent. In fact Dr. Moguel was so kind and caring. I felt completely at ease in his care. He performed a venogram and diagnosed a blockage in one of my jugulars and angioplasty was performed to open it. I would never hesitate to return to Dr. Moguel’s care. Mr. Andres Brakke the Clinic Coordinator who made all non medical arrangements was also a godsend. He was always on hand to make sure anything we needed was taken care of. I will be forever indebted to Dr. Moguel and his staff.

MS sufferers are now able to receive treatment at the Clinic of the Heart in Los Cabos, Mexico. No longer will it be necessary to travel to distant lands pay exhorbitant prices or endure long waiting lists to receive the care that can enhance the quality of life. The “liberation procedure” a surgical intervention that is used to clear the blocked veins that are consistently found in MS patients and are the basis of  the findings of Dr. Paolo Zamboni regarding the cause of MS, called CCSVI (Chronic Cerebrospinal Venous Insufficiency), which states that MS is caused, in whole or in part, by the abnormal narrowing of veins in the vascular system that drains the central nervous system (the jugular and azygous veins). The procedure is now performed by an experienced team of specialists headed by Dr. Rafael Moguel, the Director of the Clinic of the Heart in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico who is an Interventional Cardiologist since 1992, with training and expertise on cardiac and extracardiac procedures including the brain.
Dr. Moguel is a fellow of the Society for Cardiac Angiography and Intervention (SCAI) among others. Need help? contact info@cardioabroad.com or Dr. Moguel directly at: cathboss@gmail.com
