As far as the T-Cell testing, I'm wondering if anyone knows enough about this blood test; whereby you have to be producing some sort of T-Cells () to be accepted?
This is above my head at the moment, but for me, it begs the question of why they don't use this testing to help dx MS, if it is a major factor for being accepted into this trial?

Cherie,
If they find that this works the way they think it does, then maybe it will be used to diagnose MS at some point. I wonder what the cost of doing the test is? Since this is experimental so far, it could be a cost prohibitive test at this time. If it does work well, and the test becomes commonplace, then it would make sense that they could also use it for the diagnosis process.
I know that doesn't really answer your question and I hope a person who is more scientific than me will jump in here.
I hope your friend Debee gets into the trial too!
