Lets recap…

I initially did not meet the criteria for Dr. Burt’s Study at Northwestern because I hadn’t had a relapse in over 3 years. I re-submitted right after I had a relapse in May. Following that I quickly received the paperwork for the possibility of getting invited to come for an evaluation for the study.

I sent my initial email to Northwestern on June 22nd and was contacted within a day to send my Eval paperwork to them. However, I sat on it a bit because my father was going through eye surgery.

Once I knew that my dad was going to be ok, I sent over my paperwork on Sept 7th, I and received the news on Sept 13th, that they wanted me to come come for a formal evaluation! Once they received my medical records a few days later, they asked me to come the next week, Sept 20th and 21st!

I was accepted for treatment by Dr. Burt on a compassionate basis, as I had failed all of my medications and am still showing activity of my RRMS.
