An Ontario man with multiple sclerosis died of complications after a controversial treatment in Costa Rica to open up his neck veins, CBC News has learned.
Mahir Mostic, 35, of St. Catharines died on Oct. 19, one day after doctors in the Central American country tried to dissolve a blood-clot complication.
Skip all that. Down to the comments.

If I had fast developing MS, I'd try experimental procedures to increase my quality of life (it wasn't meant to cure him). I'd try experimental procedures for anything, and I'd probably try heroin too. What difference does it make if I'm going to die soon anyway?
This disease is terrible, especially the fast moving kind. I don't think people live much longer than 5 years after they are diagnosed.
Science can't move forward if we don't try new procedures. At one time, we thought the cure for STDs was mercury. We also used to bleed people to cure them!
This man was very brave to try something new and controversial, and he did so knowing that there is a high degree of risk.
Meowkittie you're In luck !
We at Doctor Duck's House of Quackery have created a new cure for MS ! It involves stuffing cotton balls into the ears of the patients while praying to the secret VooDoo spirit of MS Cures who's name we are sworn never to reviel !
So have your 10 000$ ready and come on down ! Our Voodoo doctors only have limited beds available so hurry to get yours !
Remember ! You're dying of a horrible incurable disease so its time to try anything ! Does it really matter I got my degree off the back of a cracker jack box ?
You have nothing to lose but the contents of your wallets !
Remember Doctor Ducks motto ! "I'm not a duck , just a Quack !"
PS: Medical degree's in Quackery for sale cheap , exams optional , inquire within.

I think part of the uproar is caused by the fact that help is not available here is they have had the procedure done. If you deal with a quack are you to be left alone to reap the results. Are the procedures done by the Italian doctor coming up with the same results or just doctors cashing in on the new idea. As I understand it a couple of people are now showing the same symptoms and these were done in a place other than the original doctor
