Specialist doctors in Sheffield, UK have confirmed that patients with MS (many sclerosis) have seen phenomenal health improvements when they opt for a treatment used for cancer. About 20 MS patients recently said yes to bone marrow transplants using their own stem cells. And few patients were completely paralyzed and showed zero chance of being able to walk. According to Professor Basil Sharrock of the Royal Hallamshire Hospital in Sheffield. Today, almost 100,000 people in the UK have MS, a chronic neurological disease that is incurable. Most of these patients are generally detected with the disease in their 20s or 30s. A person with MS will have their immune system attack the nerve lining of the spinal cord and brain. Many sclerosis explained When a person is affected by MS, the protective covering. Myelin is attacked by the immune system, resulting in sclerosis or scarring. Disrupted myelin further impairs nerve signals. When this scarring and inflammation do not stop, then the person suffers. MS Stem Cell Trial in UK Hospitals Recently, there have been advanced clinical trials. Worth noting is the example of Holly Drewry, 25 years old and living in Sheffield, who participated in these processes. After giving birth to her daughter Isla, her condition worsened, leaving her stagnant in a wheelchair. She told BBC Panorama that she was unable to walk straight and was afraid to even hold her daughter to prevent the child from falling. And with each passing day, her MS condition worsened. It was in Sheffield that Holly was treated with cord blood stem cells and the results were miraculous. Within days of the transplant, she saw a positive improvement in her condition. She could walk. And when she was completely treated, she came home and hugged her daughter, she was completely devastated. For Holly, this is nothing short of a miracle. An in-depth analysis of the treatment given to Holly revealed that her paralysis was cured. Although she has to be under medication and medical supervision for the next few years, the cord blood stem cell treatment has brought her. Holly is not the one who recovered from MS paralysis today. Steven Storey, a prominent marathon runner, and triathlete, also suffered from MS paralysis and could not even blink a muscle. After the stem cell treatment, Storey was able to move his toe in about 9 days and returned to normal. Treatment - a complete restart of the immune system The drug treatment that cures MS . After this, the immune system is rebuilt using stem cells derived from the patient's own cord blood. These cells are nascent and have no trace of any defects or irregularities. Professor John Snowden, consultant hematologist, at Royal Hallamshire Hospital reveals. Thus, the advanced treatment of MS with stem cells is considered a medical miracle in today's realm of regenerative medicine. This phenomenal success further confirms the importance of selection for cord blood banking.
