Hello everyone!

Stem cell therapy has become a topic of hope and curiosity for those living with multiple sclerosis. Some studies suggest that stem cells could help repair nerve damage and potentially slow disease progression. However, this treatment is still in the experimental stages and isn’t widely available.

Have you looked into or tried stem cell therapy for MS?
What’s been your experience with newer or alternative treatments for MS?
How do you evaluate treatment risks and benefits before making a decision?

I would love to go through stem cell therapy. Known as HSCT for MS patients.

There's been a trial in the UK for it, but unfortunately it's only available for people with progressive forms. A relapse-remitting patient, such as myself, aren't able to apply for the trial. Hopefully, when HSCT passes, it'll be opened up for all patients. In the meantime, I'm keeping my eyes on remyelinating medication that's currently going through trials.
