Doctors jumping on the bandwagon

It's very promising for patients that more researchers and doctors around the world are now inferring that they discovered the procedure similar to what I just did with Dr. Burt at Northwestern. This video released by Johns Hopkins seems to follow that pattern, trotting out their own MS patient success stories. That's a pretty good indication that something works, I think.

Dr. Burt started studying high-dose cyclophosphamide and HSCT in animals 30 years ago, and he is now into Phase 3 human studies. That probably puts him ahead of everyone else in this field. But frankly, I really don't care who gets the credit for being first.  Every good result reported by other patients and doctors is good news for me, and for many patients with aggressive MS and other autoimmune  disorders.

If you are an MS sufferer interested in treatment with Dr. Burt, I highly recommend that you review the below criteria for his current clinical trial.  If your treatment history and condition is a close match to those criteria, there's a good chance his procedure can help you.  For other autoimmune diseases, just use the search engine on the clinical trials site.
