Hello Jim091866,

I have looked into this and this type of stem cell therapy has proven to be effective for CIDP, Lupus and MS among others. It is possible that stem cell therapy would work for other types of autoimmune mediated diseases but I did not find anyone that had treated other types of autoimmune neuropathy other than CIDP with stem cell therapy as of yet.
I emailed Dr Burt personally and he stated that at this time there are not plans to expand the treatment to other types of autoimmune diseases other than those listed here at this time. http://www.stemcell-immunotherapy.org/about.html
Autologous non-myeloablative haemopoietic stem-cell transplantation procedure does hold promise for the future...
