[tracy-h]

Has anyone looked into or received stem cell tberapy? How did it help or not?

No but if you get any responses I would be very interested in the answers.

I'm very interested in stem cell therapy. I know someone is trying to get help with funding. Unfortunately most ins co won't cover the cost. I keep up with research bc I think it will be a game changer.

hello sjewell77. Is research bc in British Columbia?

I agree but I don't think it's ready for use on full body issues. Last I checked they were still working on nerve regeneration via stem cells on people who can't walk. Seems like they should have started with less difficult cases but if I couldn't walk I would probably want to go first. Keep researching

I was told by my docs to stay away....... not proven, very expensive ($4500.00) for 1 injection with no guarantees and not ins coverage.

Hello tracy-h

Have you heard about Professor Thomas of Queensland Univercity discovery? She has started a phase 2 trial of her vaccine RheumavaxI that actually cures RA. She was all over the news last year. It's very exciting. Sadly it wont be available for at least 5 years or so.
