What would it take to say that I have been cured of MS?
Cure - to restore to health
IF a substance “GIFT15 like” worked in humans, I would say that I was forever cured of the damaging effects of MS.
I would still have the underlying disease theoretically, but it’s damaging effects on my cns would have to be completely neutralized for me to use the words “cured” or “restored to health”.
Damage already done to my cns would still exist and would need to be addressed via some sort of stem cell therapy.
IF it were possible to repair the cns via stem cells (non-embryonic for me), I would then state that I was cured of the damage that MS has had on my cns.
The disease still exists, it has not been eradicated, rather it has been completely and forever neutralized and all previous cns damage repaired, this is my definition of “restore to health”. Under this definition, I would say that I have been “cured” of MS.
