Have any MyMSTeam members had experience with stem cell treatment at Ruiz Clinic?
The search results don't include specific experiences from MyMSTeam members about the Ruiz Clinic. However, members have shared varied experiences with stem cell treatments at different locations.
Some members reported positive outcomes:
- One member had HSCT at Northwestern seven years ago and went from being in a nursing home at age 32 to living independently without disease-modifying drugs
- Another member tried umbilical cord cell treatment in the Cayman Islands and reported improved muscle building and balance
Others had less favorable results:
- One member had stem cell treatment in 2018 but saw no change, with lesions continuing to grow
- Another member had stem cells harvested from fat cells in 2014, experienced reduced fatigue for about two months, but then symptoms returned
If you're considering stem cell treatment abroad, it's important to research thoroughly. Experts warn about "stem cell tourism" because some clinics may not provide proven treatments or adequate follow-up care. Outcomes can vary significantly between clinics.
Talk with your neurologist about whether stem cell therapy might be appropriate for you and whether clinical trials are available.
