  • Hi Jillex,

    To re-iterate, from the information I have currently reviewed, it appears that stem cell therapy in this instance is intended to aid the repair of a certain section of the brain which it is (in this case at least) believed to have been or become damaged.

    However, the preparation and method of treatment does not seem like it could be effective in its assigned application especially as I expect the damage as described would have occurred through anoxia- causing scar tissue, or genetic abnormality - therefore unaltererd stem-cells would not produce a different cell structure). Additionally, confirmation of an abnormality in the brain would need to be gained in each instance as a minimum.

    Please note that I am not an authority on this, and do not know each individual claimant's treatment procedure.

    My personal opinion is that your efforts and funds are better placed elsewhere.
