Congenital Vascular Malformation (CVM)

Hi,I`ve been diagnosed with congenital veneous malformation limited to my right forearm .I`ve had medical insurance for a while but for some unknown reason my insurance carrier refused my requst for scelotherapy treatments. I`d appreciate if someone could give me Dr Yates contact information. thanks.

My first venous malformation removed in the throat was done by scapel , the whole tumor was removed but it was a horrific experience because of the complications afterwards . I had multiple blood loss going to my jaw and muscles around it that caused me to have to undergo 2 bone graphs and 3 muscle. I also had a lot of damage done to the nerves around my face from having so many surgeries to repair the lost muscle. I recently had it come back in the throat again but this time they used lazer(and it was a different dr) it seems to be going ok so far but it looks like they will have to go back one more time but it was nothing to compare to the first surgery years ago. I have never had alchohol injections but the drs might want to go that route with the malformation in my shoulder , so that will be new to me.

I have never heard of Dr. Yakes but thanks so much for the referal ! I wrote his name and town he is in . I had a dr here in Texas that is about to become a resident of a research hospital that wants to meet me hopefully by the end of the month but im glad to have another dr I might have back up to call on because I had originally went to dr. Waner in Arkansas and he wanted to help me but he couldn't because the hospital wouldn't allow him to take the case because I didn't have the health insurance so I will keep Yakes in mind incase this happens here again with this dr in Tx. Thanks so much !

I have been on birthcontrol (pill) going on 13 yrs now and I can't seem to tell a difference from when I take them and when im not ..I have yet to figure out just what triggers the growths or pain ..seems like no matter what I change or don't , its still the same - pain ..but I have recently been advised that its better not to be on birth control so im thinking seriously of getting my tubes tied so thats one less thing I have to worry about making them flare up worse

We just finished our second treatment with Dr. Yakes in Denver for our son. I would be interested in hearing the experiences of others with his treatments.

i am on my way to see dr yakes in denver colorado for the first time. Can anyone tell what to expect. I have a vm in my right leg and foot.
