I can really see that if it seems like a magic cure will solve a terrible problem, then it's worth a try. But you have to do your research to see if this miracle is just a scam preying on the hopes of the desperate. By worse off, I mean having a bad reaction leading to sudden death or an aggressive cancer, both have happened in the past. Some day I really do believe stem cells will be able to treat a wide range of medical issues, but not now, and certainly not at this clinic. I read yesterday about a spinal cord stimulator device that's being used successfully in Switzerland and other reputable locations. Your rods and screws may disqualify this man and yourself from this procedure though. https://www.abc.net.au/news/health/2018-11-01/neurotechnology-restores-walking-spinal-cord-injury/10446050 Four years ago when the Lausanne university started the trials, i applied to be involved, they asked for my records from Khonkaen hospital, and x-rays etc. After several weeks of me waiting, in fact quite excited about going, i was rejected because they had serious concerns about the rods/ screws in my back affecting the implant. Believe me i was totally gutted. I also saw the report on CNN about the man now being able to walk, and believe me i had tears in my eyes, thinking if only, if only. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
