Sask. man with MS first person selected as potential candidate for trials
A man from Saskatoon with multiple sclerosis is the first person picked by the province as a potential candidate for government-funded MS trials.
“I'm certainly terrified for going, but I'm more excited,” said 28-year-old Andrew Dahlen who leaves for Albany, New York on Monday.
He hopes to be selected as a participant in a two-year clinical study of the Liberation Treatment. Half of the participants will recieve the treament which unblocks veins, the other half will not.
If he is selected, Dahlen has dreams of gaining back things he has lost through the progression of his MS.
