![I JUST DID STEM CELL THERAPY: Was It Worth It? [2022]](/img/tr.png)
I am late to the debate but do want to contribute. I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a rare disease with no official cure. My doctor suggested an autogolous stem cell transplant. I had a good stem cell match with a brother, but host donor disease could be a life long problem. After 19 days in the hospital I was able to return home for recuperation.
Today I am 10 years removed from my transplant. Thank you God my best wishes to all who are considering a stem cell transplant.
Autologous stem cell transplants do work for certain blood cancers. But not in all cases. However, stem cells are approved for a very minimal number of disorders, certainly not for neurodegenerative diseases, organ degenerative diseases or damaged brain.
This is a totally different type of stem cell transplant than the so-called regenerative stem cell transplant. The stem cell or bone marrow transplant you’re referring to which is for people with leukemias, lymphomas, and myeloma blood cancers are FDA approved and done in a hospital setting where a patient either has an autologous SCT where their own stem cells are harvested and frozen and then after conditioning chemo to eliminate their cancerous bone marrow the harvested stem cells are thawed and reintroduced to the patient. Allogeneic SCT is using a donor stem cells and used usually for leukemias or refractory blood cancers, and are more susceptible to Graft vs Host Disease (GVHD). These SCT have been medically tested through trial and controlled studies for years for efficacy, dosing, and safety. That’s why it’s been FDA approved for years and helped many people with blood cancer.
FDA approval and a hospital doesn't mean that the treatment will work and won't cost thousands of dollars. This video is way out of date. Stem Cells therapy treats many ailments, not just blood cancer. MS is a good example. The doctor is wrong.

I don't know . He may be not telling that true, for sure drugs companies never want u to get well. they love prescriptions the more medicine you take the richer they get.
ghfhbrfbd medical research and practice are different. If not Most hospital will face debt recpovery proceedings.
NO he is NOT telling the TRUTH !!!!
Bingo! #fakenews gonna fake! This person gets it ^
Search bone marrow transplants and what see what Pet Vets are doing with dogs.
This Video is From 2012?: Well in 2015 I was told I would die from my lung diagnosis. After I got out of the hospital, I was in bed on my O2 for 10 months with no improvement until I received a $5500 Stem cell Treatment at the Lung Institute in Scottsdale. I started improving after 3 months and started getting back on my feet again. 2.5 years later I am off the 02 and only sleep at night with low 02. Although I am not 100%, I am far better and slowly getting stronger; back to work too. Wearing an oxygen cannula was such an experience with everyone looking at you, but it was a humbling experience of which I am very thankful for. Do not let anybody steal your hope, and believe that God heals!
G Michael Price And you did this with reputable doctor in the US right? Not some quack in S. America?
G Michael Price. I needed to hear that as I want to undergo this treatment. Thanks
@@kayesisslemczeal4547 don't do it. It's a scam.
@@someskinnydude100 Thanks! Happy New Year
You know it’s all about money when the pharmaceutical companies say there’s no treatment or cure for certain diseases when there is already ground breaking treatment.
Pharmaceutical ever said there isn't cure each single genetic disease.
True!
Did you even watch any of the video? Also your comment makes no sense. When pharmaceutical companies say there's no treatment, they're closing the door to any money-making venture. They are being practical.
@@rumblefish9 Oh yeah because I almost forgot how squeaky clean and honest the FDA and CDC are
There is big money also in the research hence why they have never found a cure for cancer after 60 yrs.
I do believe he's a con but he was right about one thing...Any medical breakthrough is suppressed from publication
Mike Meade what are you watching here ?
Quit misleading people. If that were the case, the research on personlized medicine would've been the first one to go. It's REALLY hot right now.
Wish there was a new investigations now... 11 years later. Thank you.
I’m working with a company that sells patches that reactivates your OWN stem cells and there’s no medication involved. I think it’s reckless to say anything will cure any disease since some people will respond and some will not.
This video was filmed by 60minutes quite a few years ago. The world of Science has moved far away from looking for con men. Now, in 2014, ^0 minutes should do a show on how many people are successfully treated everyday by stem cells. Their are Doctors in all parts of the U.S successfully treating real people with serious illness everyday. I'm very thankful for real progress!
10toria19 proof there are real cases being helped?
Please quote 1 multi-center randomized blinded clinical trial showing stem cells are successful in treating disease (and which particular disease) to support your statement.
I had over $20,000 of stem cells ( embro) ... DID nothing 2020... not a thing...!!!! WHO is getting results?????
We are in 2023. 8 years since you posted this. The world of science is still almost where it was when you typed your comment. There is still no cure for any auto immune disease. HSCT is still controversial. AIDs have claimed so many lives during those years and will continue doing that for decades to come.
But they won't do a show because it will take money out of the pockets of Big Pharma. Nope!
There is a distinct difference between embryonic stem cells and adult stem cell. This video relates to embryonic stem cells which are not of the patients own body. Adult stem cells are from the patients themselves, harvested SC trapped in their fat or from their own bone marrow. We are all, already familiar with Adult stem cells. Adult SC is demonstrated whenever we have an injury that heals, the miracle of our own self healing. The therapy is to flood the area of injury with more stem cells; get more stem cells from/in our own bodies to areas with problems.
Umbilical cord stem cells are different from embryonic stem cells. In fact, they have been shown to be more robust than fat derived or bone marrow cells from a person with a disease as their stem cells are slightly dysfunctional. Check out The Stem Cell Institute as they have more published papers on the subject of stem cells. The doctor who is ahead of Duke University's stem cell department has not kept up with current world data. Unforgivable.
mark moses Most embryonic stem cells are from abortions which is murder. I thought families saved umbilical cord stem cells for treatment of their children. I doubt that when someone is injured, that stem cell won't work so well. Don't know for sure. Hope so. As stated, this is really old. A friend had stem cells replaced for Leukemia, and that has been some years ago. She is still surviving. Don't know how well, but she is surviving.
my son had his own stem cells put in his spinal cord. It killed him!!!
Umbilical cord SC are also viable and used for various treatments with good effect.

If our medical system wasn't so bad people would not be looking some ware else for help. The for profit system is killing us here in the USA.
Nutech Mediworld Hospital, in New Delhi, India. Dr. Geeta Shroff is the head doctor. My siblings and I (6 of us total) got treated in 2015 for Chronic Lyme Disease, with EMBRIOTIC Stem Cells and are now completely better. It is the only place in the world that does this type of stem cells and that actually work. You can learn about our story and success by Googling "Help the Sweeney Kids Lick Lyme Disease" (and read our story on the youcaring website)

It has been 5-6 years since this video, and I already have people close to me with Multiple Sclerosis got better with stem cell therapy. So there are indeed breakthroughs since this video, we may just not be looking at the right place.
Gee thanks
Correct sir

Where did those people get stem cell therapy?
They had it done in Mexico. Duhhh???
Maybe I missed it, but I didn't hear mention of stem cells from one's own body as against those from someone else being used.
Oh it's in here.They are in your own bone marrow.
We have to be cautious here folks. First off all, this video was apparently uploaded in 2012. Progress since that time has been made in the area of Stem Cell/PRP applications (PRP- Platelet Rich Plasma). However, I am not aware that Stem Cells can even at this time help or cure such illnesses as ALS or Cerebral Palsy. But, the one thing that 60 Minutes failed to do and that is, speak to where Stem Cells can have a positive effect as an alternative. That is in the area of Orthopedics. If you are going to discuss a new unproven procedure or drug that is still in its beginning stages, you should cover all basis so you the investigative body (60 Minutes in this case) steers from making themselves look as if they are bias in either way. If 60 Minutes had also spoke on the areas of medicine , particularly once again the benefits of Stem Cells in Orthopedics, this would have been a complete story and 60 Minutes would have looked more credible. Did you notice that the doctor from Duke never mentioned where Stem Cells/PRP was a possible good benefit? Think about it! Yes! I am glad they have and are exposing the Charlatans out there! But lets be complete when telling the 'truth' about what eventually could be a pioneering alternative to surgery or in the case of those facing imminent death, a credible cure one day. As far as I am concerned, 60 Minutes did a great job at exposing the con, but in the process made themselves look as if part of a 'conspiracy' with the drug companies to suppress the other possible benefits to such a treatment by credible medical people. We all know how powerful the drug companies are. Just as we know with living in the 21st Century there are true viable alternatives to fossil fuel, and I am not an environmentalist in the truest since of the word. But I do believe in taking care of our planet. But we continue to still run our cars, planes, trains, etc on fossil fuel. If were to truly go in that direction of fossil fuels, guess who would be put out of business? Big oil companies and our foreign friends in the Middle East; and I call them 'friends' tongue and cheek. So the drug companies are no different. Good credible doctors from major medical universities such as Duke, John Hopkins, UCLA, UCSF, etc and all over the world, have been for years up in arms fighting with the FDA on treatments, drugs surgical procedures that are far beneficial than what is currently available. As far as Stem Cells benefits. It has been shown beneficial from credible clinical physicians in the field of Orthopedics as far as treating tendon, ligament and in some case, but to a slightly lesser degree arthritic issues in knees and shoulders, such as tears or degeneration. I am currently looking into PRP treatments for my knee that needs to be replaced and a rotator tear that also needs surgery. FDA of course has still not officially approved such treatments. Therefore insurance companies will not pay for it. But, there are very credible doctors at major hospital who are performing these procedures. But without insurance it can be expensive. $1000 for PRP/Stem Cell on my knee. These doctors are probably part of a network of physicians who are gathering data for the FDA towards eventual FDA approval. Sorry folks for the long comment. But I couldn't allow this 60 Minutes program to tell only have the story. 60 Minutes, do your homework!!!

You're welcome! Thank you!
Hi Jesse, Thanks for your comment. I found this video after searching for help with my Achilles Tendonitis. I have been looking at Regenexx who happen to have an office in Oceanside, CA, where I live. I was so relieved once I had read all of Regenexx's info, but then was completely devastated by this video and the negative comments above. You give me hope again that I can possibly walk without pain. You commented 9 months ago. Can you contact me and give me an update on any procedures you might have had done? I'm looking into Platelet Rich Plasma injections from my own blood. Thanks!

Coby Burns
Did you have the PRP procedure? If so, what were your results? If you had results with PRP, your results with stem cells should be significantly better.
I agree with Jesse in that stem cell therapy looks very promising for orthopedics, and you shouldn’t let this 60 Minutes segment scare you off. It’s been two years since Jesse wrote his message, so I’m sure the therapy is even better than when he was looking at it. Heck, it’s even progressed since you left your comment.
I’ve recently been doing a lot of stem cell research since I need a knee replacement but will have to 15+ years before they will even entertain a replacement as an option for me. Insurance won’t pay for the surgery until I’m 60, plus it’s difficult to find a surgeon that will perform the surgery on a patient younger than 60. I can’t imagine suffering through this pain for almost two more decades. What is my knee going to look like after so many years of bone grinding on bone if there’s already no cushion in the joint now?!
I have seen before and after stem cell therapy pictures from reputable medical facilities that have given me a lot of hope. One picture showed a “before” knee that didn’t have any cartilage remaining (like mine), and an “after” healthy knee with a nice, thick medial and lateral meniscus. I believe the after picture was taken right around a year of the stem cell therapy.
I am going to proceed with stem cell therapy on my knee as soon as I can save up enough money. Hopefully it won’t be too much longer until at least the orthopedic stem cell procedures (that can be easily proven to be successful with x-rays) are covered by insurance.
I have to say there are three sides to a story. "Theirs, ours and the Truth." Stems cells do work. We still need to know how and what they can help regenerate.
I will let you know in May of 2022. I have. Osteoarthritis of the hip.
@@markminister2599 it’s May 2022. How are you doing?
@@markminister2599 how did you make out ?
I would recommend lifewave X39 stem cell activation patches. It's phototherapy, and your body does all the work to regenerate its own stem cella. It's age reversing, wellness therapy.
The problem with this video 60 minutes and all media can and do interviews and then edit it to any agenda they want and are in bed with the medical establishment.
Interesting! Gary E. Susser was permanently disbarred from the practice of law in the state of OHIO, He is a dangerous, unethical practitioner who has also been threatened with being disbarred in Florida for lying to the Court.
Susser served time in prison for his criminal activity
Check him out on Google.
Thank you 60 Minutes ❤
this report was five years ago. great steps forward have been made since then. I also know that stem cell therapy has been used with great success in the racehorse industry for over twenty years. Just because of a few idiot con men out there, don't throw out the entire concept. I may have it through my orthopedist in my crummy knee, rather than a TKR.
Im an engineer so I know what its like to be around stuff that is in testing and not yet published. I think it is pathetic when people are so hesitant to do anything that might cause harm/ damage. 'You cant make an omelette without breaking a few eggs' best sums it up. ASSE might suggest using steel mesh gloves and eye protection when cutting a piece of paper lol.
So I am 7 months out. I have a severe limp. I am in pain all the time. I can not crawl out bed. If I want to move I I have to grab the edge of my bed. My specific ailment is avascular necrosis. Think of this as arthritis. The doctor charged me $12,500. This ends with a hip replacement. I had a year of unnecessary pain because I cancelled my schedule surgery in December. My doctor never spoke to me not once after he gave me stem cells. Imagine having that situation and suffering it alone.
Don't degrade stem cells treatment. I have had some friends whose children were suffering from Autism and were recommended stemcell treatment and after undergoing this treatment in India these kids are doing great, today they are like any normal kids, Stemcell treatment is getting advanced and there are body transplants taking place on an experimental basis in India, even though it is not become public , when doctor's write off a patient saying "there is nothing much we can do " stemcell treatment treatment is known to have cured the patients completely
Any address?
I am an Indian physician. There are such charlatans the World over. South America, Singapore, Taiwan, India and many other unregulated parts of the World. First, these claims need to be verified. Asperger's spectrum disorder (Autism spectrum) is very broad. The mildest forms of autism are not even noticeable in society unless one has insight into developmental disorders. Was any of these kids suffering from severe autism (Pervasive Developmental Disorder)?? I will sign off my entire wealth to you if any PDD patient is shown to improve with stem cell therapy objectively in a trial monitored by Developmental Diseases experts. Stop fooling people with nonsense about things you have no idea about.

My daughter walked for the first time 3 weeks after stem cell transplant in Germany check my videos you will see her walking for the very first time and in the stem cell hospital.
Amazing
Yes, Christopher Reeves would have walked, too.
I like how at the end it says "Sponsored by Lipotor" lmao
When done right it works wonders with growth hormones
My dad has Multiple Myeloma and now early signs of MDS and a transplant is needed to improve his cancer but he has watched these stories and now is refusing. This is wrong!!!
he is right in some licencing point but their moneymaking thing make me want to puke. both sides are diguisting
You feel like a new person a day later. He needs to continue doing procedures. You can’t stop n expect it to work forever
Cerebral palsy is a tough one. I would be highly suspect of any therapy with unrealistic expectations.
60 minutes should not criminalize entire stem cell industry and it’s use ,since same medications can be used for different diseases and symptoms. It appeared 60 minutes trying to appeal that was handled and utilized by inappropriate hands and inappropriate use.
Something I have never heard of...thank you
do you have any updates on this story now? it has been years later.
Good questions. I want to see the updates 9 years later.
Stem cell treatments have come far since this 2012. 60 minutes did this investigation on this particular doctor selling dead cells as viable curing stem cells.
he need to be ashame of what wrong he is doing.
She said she thinks we are about 10 years away, 11 years ago. I really hope stem cell therapy gets better because I could use a miracle for my baby girl ❤
Do a search on Lifewave
Lol. It's already here😂 West big pharma are worried about their economy. Research about developments in India. Especially Neurogen, Mumbai. See the pub med research by dr. Alok sharma. Come over here and get your babbie right 😤❤
iWork with a company that have stem cell patches that regenerate your own stem cells
Stem cell can work. This program obviously has an agenda! There is a place for this but not right now. Maybe in the future it might matter but for now, get on with it. CP and autism don't have a quick fix and acceptance is the key, as with other disability. Sometimes things just are so don't fix what isnt broken and accept differences.
teresa curran , this videois four years old andstem cell research has come a long way since then.
That's true! To be honest, as much as I preach acceptance, if it offers a cure, i'd be first in line.
It's now 2023, the science has progressed quite a bit since this was published in 2012. 60 minutes should do a follow up on the progress on stem cell research.
He can't even explain what is stem cells are. Unbelievable.
The Eckland chap is a fantastic actor, pretending he's got a license to practice medicine and prescribe controlled substances . Notice when 60 Minutes rock up at the hotel he couldn't get his words out. The fact he was prepared to deliver a specialised treatment in a hotel room not hospital is dodgy and the fact the dead cells are mixed in South America, one of the filthiest parts of the globe, prove he's not a real doctor and he doesn't have a lab, just a bedroom where experiments go wrong. All the hallmarks of a scam that could cost lives!
this video sickens me i suffered a massive stroke 12 years ago and imjust looking to regain not only my life back but a normalcy agaIN AND its a shame their are people out there claiming and giving false hope to people with diseases and injuries
you are absolutely correct sir! I am a retired paramedic/rn. I also have seen with my own eyes ER Dr s killing patients.
Soo sad I feel for those who experience these scams. God don't like ugly!
@60minutes can you do an update on this story and where we have come with the science on stem cells currently I am seeing lots of patch sales for homeopathic regeneration of stem cells for healing purposes. I know that the science has come a long way for actual medical care but I was curious if there was anything on this site about some of the marketing companies that are also utilizing this information
GOD gave us a Brain & The Natural Tools (Stem Cells) to fix ourselves. We dont need pharmacy drugs.
Perhaps God also gave us the brains to make pharmacy drugs, like antibiotics, that have saved millions of lives?
@@JonathanDLynch Antibiotics have also destroyed many lives as well
How about allowing stem cells to be tested in these sick people and lets see what it does. If it helps great if it doesnt work the world can move on and try other things.
60 minutes when did you sell your soul? Professional athletes from the United States have been going overseas for stem cell treatments for over a decade. Maybe have a segment on how to identify the legitimate professionals and treatment centers??
We did a treatment for autism in Panama. Absolutely NO results and it cost us 20k. The clinic was very nice and the accommodation was excellent, but no result.
Kiril Nikolov how long ago did you do it? Maybe it takes time. Did you try hyperbaric chamber first? Just curious because I was thinking about doing it...
Could you provide more details? Son? Daughter? How old were they when they received treatment, etc....thanks.
Thank you for being honest. Autism is treated with behavior therapy and neuro stimulants, so far.

Thats why 🤣🤣🤣
60 Minutes is the farce here. As always, as an educator, when I can bare to sit through one of their features, 60 Minutes is a wealth of content for a class on how NOT to engage in objective reporting. For one, there is countless research proving the validity of stem cell therapies. In fact, Nobel Prizes are awarded for these breakthroughs. How could a story leave this out? Well, we all know why. Also, all professions have deviant, character flawed individuals as members - including medicine, those who would exploit a good thing - like breakthrough in science. Picking one of these individuals as the only face on a revolutionary field of medicine is ridiculously bad media. I cannot call this journalism. It's not even well done propaganda; but then again, propaganda is the lowest form of communication - a parity, really, to those of a critical thinking mindset. Another tell-tale exposure to this indirect pharmaceutical infomercial, is the "expert" source at Duke: a completely governmental sponsored lab just oozes credibility. We all know these so-called experts will report only that which corresponds to the belief systems of the entity funding them, or else. The Duke expert is just as much a fraud as the scam artist is in the feature, even her body language is the same. Report the whole story instead of framing your agenda. It hurts to watch this and to know how many people could be helped if real science took the place of the fear mongering that's going on in this feature. Shame on 60 Minutes for exploiting this family's doubts. Hockey legend, Gordie Howe, his life was just saved by stem cell therapy. He was on his death bed for months until his kids finally took him to Mexico for a procedure. Later, that very week, he was a guest speaker at a major function. Get out of the way of the future, where everyone gets to experience wellness. 60 Minutes is just another source, utilized by the old power structures, to maintain the old paradigm of "healthcare". Media like this is a servant to government control of an old system. Truth is, with advances in science, soon we REALLY won't need anyone or thing to be well, and they are scared to death.
Let's just hope the government doesn't start dictating what is being said on the Internet. I have a feeling that might not be too far off. If that happens there will probably be a lot of homegrown "terrorists" to fight back this oppression.
if you actually did research on a "credible website" you could see that the only stem cell therapy that works is bone marrow transplant. So you're wrong. Why would 60minutes lie.
Perhaps they have money in patented drugs that tries to accomplish what stem cells accomplish. Stem cells can't be patented thus the prescription drug industry is not interested in stem cells. The hospital industry is in cahoots with the insurance industry.
In the hands of real scientists and doctors, yes. But just like anything, there's going to be a group of unscrupulous people to make a quick buck. Unfortunately because of the novelty of this field there's going to be a ton of quacks.
Wrong! So are you a fraud or just ignorant?
Great effort! Thanks Dr Joanne Kurtzberg
This was published 6 years ago and the woman said she thought it would take 10 years to get a decent treatment, so it might be better by now in all fairness. Just watch the video with Joe Rogan and Mel Gibson. It isn’t useless.
PetePreneur - Entrepreneur Vlog
I have also watched that segment. The improvements Mel’s father experienced after treatment were near miraculous. If I recall correctly, the father received several super, mega, doses of stem cells. That amount of stem cells is out of reach for 99% of those paying out of pocket for therapy.
Brought to you by Lipitor. Well that just sums up the whole operation right there.
Hi and can u plz tell steam cell can repair acl tear I have watch the video of regenexx they have show by injecting the steam cell in knee they can produce new acl plz I need the information about it can it possible or not plz I am really confused after watching this 60 mins steam cell faurd plz suggest me I have acl tear and meniscus tear grade 1 plz suggest me plz
What is the opinion of Regenistem stem cell out of Florida? And is there d n a repair outside of stem cell?
note at the end this is sponsored by “levitor” from big pharma mafia
I agree. What we do is tell our customers about the potential or what had already been done (eg. rat's heart grown, human finger regrown, etc). Stem cell professionals should not mislead any customers.
Many medicine that's been approved as "safe" by the FDA have been recalled. The damage to mankind is far greater.

You will not find these stem cell docs posting before and after x-rays of someone who had knee stem cell therapy. They have all these seminars but they will not bring in a former patient.
and now 2023 i wonder how far we came ???
This is scary.
No patients by law should have to pay for experimental read non-approved, non-definitive treaments. The researchers/doctors are supposed to pay You. You see it in the paper all the time: participate in a study & compensation$ will be provided.
Con artist regenerative medicine doctors, chiropractors, and “naturopaths” all swoop in like hawks to exploit the very real and very genuine distrust people have in western medicine Big Pharma poison pushers. We get bent over from all sides of medicine. Disgraceful
I used stem cells on November 15, 2021 for Osteoarthritis. I was told unbiblical chord stem could stave off a hip replacement. I will let you know.
I am going to use it on my father. He is suffering from stroke brain damage.
Hope it will work. Mark 🙏🏻
Reminder… thus was 11 yrs ago!! There are stem cells working now!
I have chronic Asthma, just really bad Asthma and I am on Nucala but it is not enough. Thought about stem cells but this is so new, what if years down the line I end up with something worse? very confusing for me. I want to try it but I do not even know if it has really helped anyone with Asthma. All these companies offereing treatment do not seem too convincing.
And you have to wonder if and when theft of vital organs from stolen children of grieving parents grows into the mix of criminal assault upon innocent victims.
hmmm, I have just read this on one of the official EU stem cell sites
In today’s therapies mostly allogeneic (donated) stem cells are used but for the use in regenerative medicine the possibility of using autologous (own) cells is investigated. Currently, scientists around the world investigate the appropriateness of autologous stem cells from umbilical cord blood for the treatment of diabetes mellitus type 1, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy in preterm infants, lupus, traumatic brain injury, cardiomyopathy and cerebral palsy
This interview is such a farse, I am not sure if this doc is s scammer or not, but still stem cells is the future I beleive
New therapies with stem cells can be followed on www.clinicaltrials.gov.
Medical journals are global, they publish peer reviewed research done all over the world. You should be able to track them through phase one, phase two and phase three trials. When stem cell therapies are ready you will hear about it on the news, everyone is anxious for that.
Hi what kind of stroke did you suffer? I'm a stroke victim too. I want to go under this treatment but after seeing your comment, I'm getting skeptical about it. I'm about 95% independent. I have a left side weakness until now. What about you?
I'm not surprised. I've seen imposters in almost every field you can think of.. Even someone in the medical field. I'd love to share more but I'm in the middle of my own thing and I'm not sure if justice will really be served. Anyways-- I believe it to an extent and people really should be weary.

Is stem cell therapy good treatment for knee osteoarthritis? ?
Not fair reporting
Many people report positive results
If you are a healthy person you wouldn't need to expose yourself to frauding scumbags like this.
As a current physician up to date with recent regenerative medicine research and a interventional orthopedics physician I have never seen any real data that shows even remotely promising results for CP, ALS, MS. That being said I know research is being aggressively spent in those areas. I would also disclose this is not my specialty. I advise and treat for orthopedic injuries.
To answer your question about the positive indications that answer is long, but for orthopedic issues the results are very good for Osteoarthritis and degenerative issues. Stem cells will not regenerate cartilage or has been shown to do that without doubt as of yet. Stem cells if taken from you (autograph) by definition they cannot be bad because they are you own, concentrated, injected back into an area of need under guidance, ideally.
currently Stem Cells have limited evidence they can do that. That being said, the cause of the pain in a osteoarthritic knee Stem Cells are quite effective to treat.
Hi Dr Rich, I am looking at Platelet Rich Plasma therapy from Regenexx. Their site is very informative and they have research posted there as well. Are you aware of them and if so, do you feel they are legit and are able to correctly extract and reinject Platelet Rich Plasma to reduce inflammation for achilles tendonitis/osis? I appreciate any info, I just don't want to end up a casualty of scam artists.
Doctor, my own orthopedist had stem cell therapy for his own knee - he stands hours and hours over that surgery table. I am thinking about it for my own knee rather than a TKR. Too bad insurance doesn't cover it yet.
Brian K Rich MD, thank you for your input, Doctor.

Administration of my adipose stem cells in 2017 returned my quality of life. We live in a time where Western medicine frequently does more harm than good. I was given a crippling, incurable spinal cord disease during a diagnostic test administered by epidural that accidentally punctured the arachnoid lining of my spine. It took me from a very active woman walking up to 11 miles a day and dancing competitively to someone who was bargaining for hours I could stand to be on my feet each day. We were DXing a condition that had left me unable to sit for the prior two years so no longer being able to support my own weight in standing and struggling to lift my arms, was a hard pill to swallow. I was going to be bed bound and dealing with the advancement of a condition referred to as the pain of terminal cancer without the relief of death. Was it experimental with no promises? Yes. I trusted it because a doctor in TN had returned to her practice after years in a wheelchair after having the treatment from a doctor in AZ claiming to specialize in it. Did it cost a lot out of pocket? Yes. Did it change my life? Absolutely. Within four months I regained the full use of my arms and legs. I did return at two years for a second treatment, primarily because my level of activity had created new injuries in new body parts. I'm now one year past that second treatment and I am so grateful. My life was a nightmare and the extraction and injection of my own stem cells gave me a second chance. I still can't sit but I am at least back to square one, which is an amazing gift I thought was out of reach. I know others who haven't been so successful. I think stem cells as a proven solution are a long way off and it's a shame that there are expensive scams defrauding innocent people and stealing their hope.
What clinic and what treatment?
@@NaNa-rx3dv Adipose Fat-derived stem cells via IV and stem cell paste injection. I saw Dr. Todd Malan in Scottsdale, AZ but he is now working outside the US. I believe Dr. Sabrina Solt in the same area has continued his work. Today there are many clinics for these kinds of treatments but I have not needed more stems since my 2nd and last treatment in 2019.
This is 8 years ago.. Try researching now again
The FDA has only approved one stem cell and that Hematopoietic stem cells from umbilical cord. And I believed the lab will be in hospitals where generating new blood cells would be cost effective for blood transfusion. Stem cell therapies is LEGAL IN TEXAS, so that the state you should go where the physicians and labs are accredited. The FDA do have requirements to become what is an approved and accredited stem cell lab.
Straight up told him off back. "You're a con man."😂

As I understand it stem cells are going to regenerate damaged tissues but won't stop the causes of a chronic disease. For instance in Alzheimer's there's a build up of toxic metals and viruses in the brain that cause damage over time. Stem cells could repair the damage but the toxic metals and viruses would remain and damage would reoccur again. If you get the metals out and boost the immune system to keep viruses at bay and go for stem cell therapy after /then/ you have a cure :)
❤❤❤❤
he got accused for finding stem cell lines. That's totally different from claiming you can cure diseases using stem cells.
we must have in compte that this guys represented one authority in the medical world..of course they should defend the interest of the owner of pharmaceutical industry.. those discoveries are dangerous for them..
i hope he got sued ... a very obvious lying scumbag so disgusting.
i pray he be convicted... be studied, further researched, followed & be justified.
So what’s the follow-up it’s been 10 years
And now?
Now it's legit😂
Haha thinking the same
What about IMFORMED CONSENT from the mothers they took the umbilical cords from⁉️
I've had 4 children during the years I'm sure this was being developed‼️
The cords should NOT HAVE BEEN CUT right away; but the allopathetic doctors never told us. My children were cheated out of growth cells THEY NEEDED‼️🤬‼️🤬‼️
the last thing you need if you have CP is this.......
HE was about to cry
Where's the lady's peer reviewed research on what she says in the beginning? They took her word for it. 🤷
Exactly
Take a look at the date.
