Snippet-MS in Ireland

Snippet-MS in Ireland

I reported last week on the Irish physician who was under investigation for providing unlicensed stem cell treatments to patients with multiple sclerosis. The Irish newspaper The Kildare Nationalist has now printed a story about a man who underwent the treatment and reports feeling much better and having some improvement to his vision. He had originally intended to go to the Netherlands for the treatment but had it at an undisclosed location in Ireland in February; the stem cells were administered by the staff of the Rotterdam clinic.

I’m happy that he’s feeling better, but it’s too soon to be sure if there will be any lasting long-term effect.
