Hello all -

I am a new member, who has just recently been diagnosed to toxic peripheral neuropathy in my feet, although I'm one of the majority that took over two years to get a correct diagnosis.
I googled this article today where it talks about using nerve cells to implant into affected areas.

Here is a link to a new ScienceDaily article which Brue is trying to share.

Science Daily has a strict copyright so I won't quote any of it here.

Suffice it to say this article expands on the topic we had here a while back about dorsal root ganglia, and stem cell transplantation for damage ganglia.
Here is another link to a new article on the dorsal root ganglia issue:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3287412/

Both of these procedures are in very early days, research wise and will not be available for patients for a long time yet.

They are interesting to read however.

Thanks for posting the link. I realize there is very little hope for those with certain types of neuropathy, mine included, so maybe this would be a source of hope for those affected. However many years in the future it will be.
