I'm thinking about...

Re: mylien regrown

That is great. Just I have one question with all those similar stem cell therapies, do they stop progression? I'm asking because I'm planning to have HSCT by the end of the year and just pure stem cell sounds much safer. It might be some more years before this is available to the public, but I migh...

Cannabidiol (CBD) used to Treat MS

I've read some positive articles showing the potential of CBD derived from the Marijuana plant in treating MS.

UK Stem Cell Clinical Trial for MS

I heard there is a clinical trial taking place primarily in the UK testing stem cells to treat MS. I believe around 150 patients are enrolled across Europe. I'm curious how that is coming along and if there has been any early information released regarding its effectiveness?
