This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

he had a stem cell transplant and he is "cured". On top of that he is coming down on CCSVI very hard. He is an expert all of the sudden.
He even posted against CCSVI in Rose's blog accusing CCSVI believers that they are only hoping for a cheap solution. He thinks that the cure goes with money...

Thanks for the link,

I still have my eyes open for the advances in stem cell. So I'm willing to read the blog of anyone who has had the treatment.

I'm glad to hear that stem cell has worked for this person. That is fantastic.

I was a bit taken back to read the title of the blog as "the cure for MS" and later found out that the blogger really meant by cure "A stopping or halting of the progression of my MS disease"

It is perfectly okay that the blogger defined what is meant by cure so people cannot be mislead. But then continues criticising CCSVI on the grounds that CCSVI is not a cure.

I got confused as what sort of 'cure' was this person talking about? The bloggers' own definition of cure? Because I have not seen Zamboni or any of the researchers involved in CCSVI talking about 'curing MS'

Yes, stem cell transplant may help some in the future. But as i am sure you already know the best way for it to work is to deplete the immune system with tons of chemo prior to the actual transplant. And we are talking very serious chemo here. Not to mention the money involved...
Anyway, he has many thinks to say indeed. But i dont like the way he is attacking Zamboni. So i took some time to reply to him in Rose's blog.

Whatever..

All I can say is that Dr. Rose has found another idiot for his company ...

"since MS responds to immune suppressants, it has to be an autoimmune disease" - maybe joke of the year?

Try "of the century"...
If this was the case all that Campath i had wouldnt result in obvious deterioration in 12 months time. I opened those veins and all of the sudden some things are getting better for the first time ever.
There is no clear answer of course. But nobody can say CCSVI is a bullshit without evidence. That's all..

Thanks for providing the link to your response in Rose blog. I had a laugh. Not at what you said, I agree with you, but I laughed because I have very recently told a similar thing about my angioplasty:

"You payed thousands of dollars to undergo a very dangerous treatment, that can kill people, with totally unpredictable results."

My critic continue saying

"The changes that you report after your angioplasty (no headaches, no pain, no spasms) might be all placebo effect...Shame on you if you continue spreading the news about this CCSVI risky business"

Well I do not about the placebo effect, in the meantime I'm still enjoying all the benefits.

No no, i strongly suggest that you go burn your insides right away. There is a chance you ll get rid of your life. But it ll be recorded as success. Cause you wont have MS anymore.

My friend, I hope you are the prophet from Delphus.

I live nearby but i am no prophet If i was i would have seen this monster coming and i would have opened my veins when my left hand fingertips went numb back in 2004. Something tells me i would be in a better shape now...

The cool thing is that Rose replied to him. He kind of let him down too haha!!! What a nutcase this doc is. I am becoming a fan.

He is a real creep. He says that he does not believe in stem cell treatment but uses Dr Freedman's statements in his case against CCSVI. The same Dr. Freedman who is vigorously pursuing Stem cell therapy study ...

He is the coolest i am telling you. If you are on for some laughs, his blog is the place to get it. I mean, everybody needs to laugh no?

If you dig deeper, you will note that he has started a Stem Cell Business after coming back ftom Europe.

His timing was impecible... He has been "cured" and started the business spending his money to Help the world so to speak, just as CCSVI broke.

if stem cell success rate is as high as he quotes, why isn't there excitement among the patient community?

With that rate, the multiple sclerosis should be used mostly in past tense ...

Thanks Gordong for sharing the news about this "Stem Cell Business".

I'm looking forward to reading their research papers, clinical trials and so on....
