Stem cell recipient positive Mexican procedure working
Monday, October 30, 206 - The Express-Times - By DANIEL HAUSMANN
"Ed Johns says he feels like a new man"
"The effects of his MS are not as pronounced, something he attributes to a stem cell treatment he underwent in Tijuana, Mexico.
He returned Oct. 13 and has noticed a renewed vitality which increases every day, he said.
Before getting the treatment, merely walking down the stairs was difficult, Johns said. Now he's back to using the personal gym machine in the basement of his North Boulevard home.
Johns, like other Americans, went to Mexico to receive the umbilical cord stem cell treatments because such therapies are not available in the United States.
Before going he was depressed, constantly exhausted and relying on a walker to get around his home. Family members and doctors described his condition as declining.
Despite that diagnosis, Johns' physician, Dr. Thaddeus Aversa, said he was cautious of endorsing stem cells as the answer to multiple sclerosis.
Stem cell research is a new area of science that hasn't been around long enough to know the long-term benefits, Aversa said, prior to Johns' trip.
However, Aversa said, Johns had gone the conventional treatment route with drugs designed to prevent the immune system from attacking nerve cells. Those therapies did not seem to help, the doctor said.
Some scientists say stem cells have the potential to repair damaged cells. However, the federal Food and Drug Administration has not signed off on allowing such treatment in America."

OK I think stem cells are the answer toward a cure for MS and many many other illnesses... but I have heard horror stories about going over the border with surgeries.... I will wait.................

I'll wait as well! There's NO WAY I'd go to Mexico for a medical procedure. The stem cell research is great. I totally support it, but if I ever cross the border to have something done, it will be the one to the north.

We may never have the benefit or even the option of this method if the government doesn't learn to seperate politics from health issues. Some people can not get the help they need for medications but yet the top story on the news is about Micheal J. Fox shaking his head to much in support of stem cell research. So if we cannot get it here in our own country what should we do? Wait for our politicians to decide for us?Who knows......
