Adult Stem Cells Now Treating Pulmonary Hypertension!

Are you or a loved one interested in receiving stem cell treatment? For free information, please fill out our treatment form or email me don@repairstemcells.org and just put TREATMENT in the subject box and the MEDICAL CONDITION in the message.
This is the magic of Adult Stem Cells or as we call them "Repair Stem Cells."  Another previously untreatable condition like Pulmonary Hypertension is NOW untreatable TREATABLE because of Repair Stem Cells.  Of course, one of the Repair Stem Cell Institute's Science Advisory board members- Dr. Zannos Grekos is behind this.

In a collaborative effort with TheraVitae, Dr. Grekos treated his first Pulmonary Hypertension patient in February, 2008.  Karl Wagner, of Macon, Georgia underwent the stem cell therapy using Repair Stem Cells.

Before the Repair Stem Cell therapy, Karl was in bad shape. He said, " was being managed by medication, but still had violent chest pains, heart palpitations, extreme fatigue, and severe shortness of breath...I could barely do anything with my daughters and was on oxygen almost all the time. Doctors at Mayo Clinic gave me a three year prognosis."

And how about after the stem cell treatment Karl??? - Wagner's saturations are now consistently high, and he no longer needs to be supplemented with oxygen or considered for a lung transplant. "I feel great," he says, "and have a normal life again. I take my girls to school every morning and work all day...my quality of life is ten-fold what it used to be. I also am off almost all of my medications and the doctors at Mayo Clinic have given me a new prognosis."
Dr. Hector Jose Rosario, Professor of Cardiology at PCUSM and Director of Cardiovascular Therapy for Regenocyte's Dominican division, says Wagner's reduction in pulmonary artery mean pressure from 41mmHg (severe pulmonary hypertension) to 24 mmHg (normal) is extremely encouraging, and to date, the other patients in the study are following the same pattern.


"This is the first time medical science has successfully reversed the disease process in pulmonary hypertension, a previously untreatable condition with a very grim prognosis," Rosario states.



"Using advanced engineered stem cell technology and innovative delivery methods," Grekos explains, "we've been able to harness the regenerative power of stem cells and literally replace the damaged blood vessels in the lungs of the pulmonary hypertension patients."



Very nice.  Karl was just the first patient to be treated with Adult Stem Cells for Pulmonary Hypertension.  Since then, Dr. Grekos has apparently treated more.  For more information on Dr. Zannos Grekos, see our stem cell treatment center section of the Repair Stem Cell Institute site.
