Multiple Sclerosis Patient Gets Life Back From Adult Stem Cells
Another multiple sclerosis (MS)patient from Canada is reporting improvements after adult stem cell treatment from Dr. Shimon Slavin in Israel. Brent Davidson, from Cochrane, Alberta, Canada, says the adult stem cells which improved his quality of life "wasn’t cheap, but it was worth every penny.”
Canadian MS Patients Must Leave Canada For Treatment
Davidson followed in the footsteps of fellow Canadians and multiple sclerosis patients
Louis Zylstra and
Arndt Roehlig, who went to Dr. Slavin for the stem cell therapy using their own stem cells.
Before the stem cells:
- reduced cognitive functions
- needed a cane to walk
- daily fatigue and pain
After the stem cells were implanted:
- Cognitive functions returned
- No cane needed, now Davidson is running and playing tennis!
- Davidson says "5% of the pain" there was before the treatment
From the
stem cell news story:
“Five CC’s of clear liquid, which happened to be 49 million of my cleaned cells, were infused into my lower spine,” he said, adding the result was dramatic.
“My body went into a state of delirium, a sort of coma,” he said. “I didn’t know my wife and I forgot my children’s names.”
But that was temporary, and five days later he was released from the hospital, and six weeks after that his balance began to return and now he no longer needs a cane to walk. He’s able to run, ride his bike, and play tennis. Even his cognitive functions have returned.
“I have about five per cent of the pain I had before,” he said. “Every day there’s some improvement.”
Davidson added his doctors here are impressed.
Though stem cell research in Canada is progressing, the procedure is not readily available. The price tag for Davidson’s entire medical procedure was about $30,000 USD, not including travel and accommodation costs.
“It wasn’t cheap, but it was worth every penny,” he said.
Another Cochrane resident and MS patient travelled to a clinic in Germany for a similar procedure.
Kim Johnson’s results have not been as dramatic as Davidson’s, though her eyesight has improved and she does have more mobility.
“I’m so glad I did it,” she said. “Things are coming, but I’d hoped it would have been faster.”
Hoping Stem Cell Treatment Will Come To Canada Faster
Well, I wouldn't have to publicize Canadians MS patients going abroad if adult stem cell treatment was available in Canada. Unfortunately, this safe treatment is not. Therefore, Canadians must travel abroad and pay money out of their own pocket for treatment that actually helps them. I guess that "free" Canadian health care isn't so great if you actually have to use it.
