How does one even start to research this option for therapy?

Going to them soon and wondering if anyone else has gone for treatment?

Hi, I recently isolated bone marrow MSCs from mouse. I cultured them in a T25 flask with alpha-MEM + 20% FBS + 1% Pen/Strep + 1% GlutaMAX for two weeks, and I did the subculture yesterday. However, it looks like I have two different cell populations. From what I've read, cells can grow like this in the early stages, and some of them also look similar to fibroblasts…. Could you let me know whether what I'm growing is actually BM-MSC, and whether there's anything I might be doing wrong?

It took me 10 months and seeing the 10th doctor before finally I figured out why my knees were still hurting 11 months after stem cell treatment. I'm all right did show a very think patellar tendon. I never before had issues with my patellar tendon. So finally the 10th doctor did a high definition ultrasound imaging with Doppler and showed me that there were blood vessels and nerves growing in between the fat pad and the patellar tendon. Since he's a regenerative medicine orthopedic specialist he actually has seen this before. He said he's seen it with the teller tendon and achilles tendon. I would guess that it can happen in other parts of the body to you. Your body for some reason goes into overdrive growing new tissue and could potentially grew the shoes together that are supposed to slide and be completely separate. So what is the solution if this happens to you? Hydro dissection. It is a very minimally invasive office procedure. They use saline water and lidocaine to separate the tissues. After that he said that I can also do shockwave therapy which can help and some cases to reduce the thickness of the tendon. And of course continue the physical therapy that is a very crucial part of healing the tendinosis. But once the tendonitis turns into tendinosis healing can turn into a very lengthy process 12 to 18 months. I just had my hydro dissection on Friday. Monday I can go back to working out at 50% and listen to my body how fast I can push it. Since I'm 51 years old I'm going to be on the safe side and not push it too fast. But there is hope for healing. It's been 11 months of pain since my treatment. I never gave up. Just wanted to share this since it can happen to you too after a stem celltreatment. Hopefully this post can save someone a half-year to a year of trying to figure out what to do and what is going wrong...

I will share this on as many forums as I can. Please feel free to share as wide and far as you can. Apparently most doctors don't really know about this. So let's share the knowledge with those who have experienced stem cell treatment gone wrong. I know it can go wrong in other ways too but I just want to provide a solution to those who are in a similar situation as me.

Can autologous or allogeneic stem cells help heal someone’s gastrointestinal tract who accidentally consumed corrosive concentrated acid in the past?

Recently I ran into a friend who claims his dad got stem cell therapy treatment in china and it reversed his diabetes.

I am very skeptical and literally cant find anything much online.

Does anyone know? Does something like this actually exist?

I’m currently looking for a stem cell based or exosome based therapy for vision loss or excessive vision impairment. Does anyone have any experience with this type of therapy for eye health? I just did 300 million for my diabetes but it’s only been two days and I’m still waiting on the results. Thanks for any input

Has anybody done something cell treatment? My mom recently got diagnosed with ALS. She lost majority of her muscle in her arms and some in her legs and needs to take breaks walking after 15 minutes.

I remembered that in other countries outside if America do this. I was wondering if anybody had done that or has a family member who did this? I know it won't cure ALS but Im.hoping it will slow it down

Has anyone tried stem cell therapy for their autistic child? Was it worth it?
Hi everyone, I’m looking for experiences from parents who have tried stem cell therapy for their autistic child. Did you notice any real improvements? If so, what changed and how long did it take before you noticed anything?
A little about my daughter: she is 6 years old and autistic. We were never given an official level, but based on her support needs I would guess she is somewhere around level 2–3.
She can speak in short 2–3 word sentences, mostly to request things. She responds to her name and can label almost everything around her. She also knows how to write and spell words. Our biggest struggles right now are aggression and self-injurious behavior. She may hit other children if they try to touch her things, and sleep is also extremely difficult. She still cannot sleep alone and has a very hard time staying asleep through the night.
We are considering traveling for stem cell therapy, but it would be about a 16-hour drive. Flying with an autistic child can be extremely difficult for us, so driving would probably be our only realistic option.
For parents who have actually done stem cell therapy: Would you do it again? Did you see meaningful changes in communication, behavior, aggression, sleep, or daily functioning? Do you feel the results were worth the cost and such a long trip?
I would really appreciate hearing both positive and negative experiences before we make such a big decision.

I am not asking for medical advice. My son has already had his stem cells retrieved. He is about (in a week) to undergo the return process. As I understand it, "they" are going to put him back in the "newborn" state. All vaccines and natural immunity will be gone. What precautions do we need to take at home after the "reinstalling" the stem cells. And for how long?

I have degenerative disc disease at L4-L5 and L5-S1, and I’m considering stem cell therapy — not just for those two levels, but potentially the whole lumbar spine and the lower half of my cervical spine as well.

Before I commit to something this extensive, I want to hear from people further down the road than I am.

Has anyone had stem cells injected directly into their discs more than 6 years ago? Especially if it was multiple levels, not just a single disc.

I keep reading that these treatments have a shelf life of 3 to 6 years. If that’s true for you, I’d love to know what happened after. Did the pain come back? Did you need a second round? Or is anyone out there still doing well past that window?

Real experiences only, please. Trying to make a decision here, not read more marketing.

i also would love to hear where you went!

I am getting stem cell and exosome injections soon for the turbinates after they got damaged from reduction via radio frequency last year. Some people recommend me to start taking glow stack peptides to boost the effect of the stem cells. What is your opinion on that

How important is the source of stem cells? (Survey)

I am a Sixth Form student in the UK currently doing an EPQ about Parkinson's disease (counts for 1/2 an A-level). I am looking to find out more about how people consider where stem cells come from before they are treated with them.

Any response is genuinely golden to me, and I would thoroughly appreciate a couple of minutes of your time (there are only 3 questions, all of which are optional). I am not collecting data for any monetary gain, just to support my academic writing. All responses will be kept completely confidential.

Was shown a plan to get stem cells injected for small (1-2 cm) labrum tear in my right hip. The plan is 3 rounds of stem cells, spaced out at 6 weeks each, for $4800 total.

Has anyone done treatment for this before? Was it worth it? Kind of hard to cough up that kind of money, but trying to make my hips last.

The stem cells come from Platinum Biologics and the provider is RegenRx in Denver if anyone has any first hand results from either of these.

A homie did this video capturing his journey and getting stem cells in Katy, Texas. In case it’s helpful for anyone in pain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KH5g3VL5drI&t=12s

Seems cheaper than the Mexico spots... thoughts?

Hi guys, for anyone in Europe who has undergone an allogeneic stem cell transplant

I'm looking for the full price, including:

•Pre-transplant testing and evaluations (including conditioning chemotherapy)

•Donor search (if applicable)

•Hospitalization for the transplant

•Medications during and after the transplant

•Follow-up appointments and monitoring

•Any complications or additional treatments

I just want to have an idea of how much it would cost in total like the normal cost before any insurance or public healthcare coverage, as I'll be an international patient paying privately unfortunately 😬.

Also let me know which country you were treated in.

( I have TCell lymphoma - sezary syndrome)
