I’m guessing adult stem cells (as the early trials with fetal stem cells produced horrifying results).
An article highlighting actual health benefits has got to be about Adult Stem Cells.
The work done with Embryonic Stem Cells never results in anything good.
As someone with a close friend suffering from MS, I sure hope they fast track this. Every annual visit to check progression is a nerve-wracking experience for all involved.
My mom had something similar done. She’s had the relapsing form for 20+ years.
After the other medicines stopped working, she went to the chemo drugs.
She’s completely in remission now.
It’s amazing. We didn’t think she’d still be around...and she has no symptoms.
:))))
It’s no dream, it’s true A.F.
Yes, I think the ghouls who were trying to sell fetal stem cells as some sort of wonder cure have been proven wrong, and adult stem cells are turning out to be far more useful/effective...
First, you have to have the “right” kind of MS, RRMS, relapsing remitting MS for this treatment to apply. There are three other kinds, the last time I looked, which may actually really be different diseases having different underlying mechanisms and would not respond to this “cure”.
A decade ago I was screened for PPMS, primary progressive MS, a late-onset MS that tends to hit older males and is slow moving. It is often diagnosed “only on autopsy.” I have been taking 40 mg of baclofen daily for 10 years to preserve my ability to move without “spasticity,” a symptom that all MS sufferers are familiar with.

The patients received either haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) or drug treatment.

Not that long ago the Democrats and their crooked media told us the only way to get these cures was to kill babies.
Thanks for the article. The results look promising.

In general or only for this study?
Here is the key line from the article for those concerned about the stem cell issue:
“Stem cells taken from the patient’s blood and bone marrow are then re-infused.”
The patient’s OWN stem cells are used!
YEP!
The ghouls need baby stem cells for their Ba’al research.

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has been shown in clinical trials to be of significant benefit. Of course that has been suppressed as is detailed in the excellent book: “OXYGEN and the BRAIN”.
See POST 13
Thanks. I’ll ask if she’s considered that.
Truly a shame, her MS. Easily the kindest and most thoughtful person I’ve ever met.
They never really say if it’s adult or embyronic anymore. One can interpret that one of two ways: Either it’s now so obvious that embryonic stem cells are uselss that it goes without saying that they are referring to adult stem cells OR they want to keep alive the impression that embryonic stem cells are great so they avoid saying “adult stem cells”. You decide.
I’ve read about this experimental treatment before. What most article don’t mention is that the protocol is not suitable for everyone with MS. For some the severity of the side effects make it not feasible.

My late neurologist was involved in the research and development studies of a drug for the primary progressive form of MS. It was approved for trials by FDA shortly before he died.
Everyone who knows that tee tiny embryo is another PERSON knows that that they set up rejection mechanisms and worse.
“will soon be recognised as an established treatment in England - and when that happens our priority will be making sure those who could benefit can actually get it”.
If they can survive long enough on the NHS wait lists.
