I am scheduled next month for stem cell therapy---not to be confused with a stem cell transfer,( in which stem cells are taken from your spine, harvested, your immune system depleted then you start over with a new immune system)--I have gone to Northwestern in Chicago,met with Dr. Burt, but was not accepted in the trial.
In stem cell therapy, the stem cells are taken from your own adipose tissue, processed with your own plasma then injected into the area needing regeneration--in my case, my lower legs. I know it's very controversial, not yet fda approved, and beware because--yes--there are many places scamming and claiming they can "fix anything".
My thought is, no matter what the cause of the neuropathy was....as long as there is not an ongoing attack on the nerves, that possibly the stem cells could help regenerate the damaged nerves??
I am having this procedure in a few weeks and would love some feedback, opinions etc. If there is someone on here who has tried it please share your experience.
