My medical story
We start the story in 1986, I was account manager for a American/Dutch medical company named: Spectramed.
The company was months before my entry, formed true a management buyout from Gould Inc.
The product range I was responsible for where critical care, cardiovascular high level equipment.
It was October 1987, I was driving my car on the highway to the city Maastricht in the south of the Netherlands.
..I saw two cars driving before me,..I thought. I don't believe it..and closed one eye:.... it was just one car!
I saw twice, believe me, I have no drink the night before.
One year later it was 1988, I saw twice for the second time, and more "strange" signals happened to me, like a disturbance of the body[trunk] balance. After a visit to the optician and eye-specialist I visit for the fist time the hospital.
Behind this period, its going fast, after a couple of visits to the neurologist and some medical-check-ups
like:....lumbar puncture ,mri-scan, the final message was ....multiple sclerosis
...after a period of 3 months where i was patient for day and night in the hospital and disabled living
in a wheel share...and saw on that period really twice!
From December 1988 til March of 1989, I was day and night in the hospital.
In December 2002, I visit the hospital for the second time, now for placing four bypasses on my heart. From now on I have to use some drugs like Selokeen, Zestril and Ascal (calcium carbasalate).
from 1997 to 2008 was Avonex the medicine I injected [intra muscular].Now from August 2008 every 28 day's aim going just for one day to the hospital and receive Tysabri [Natalizumab] by drip.
Now, after six months I can say, the results are spectacular. I have more power to do something. I walk alone more than forty five minutes, without using any tool like a walking stick ore crutches.
