Hi people,
Sorry for not being here for long time, but I had to move away from tinnitus and continue "normal life" (as much as one can have normal life with tinnitus). Anyway - I managed in meanwhile to get off medications completely, return to work and life/travel and still maintain 6-7 hours...
hello,
Unfortunately nothing much to report. tinnitus is still looming. Day before yesterday I had it really loud - above running car engine level. Last time I had it that loud was 3.5 weeks ago. In a meanwhile they were days when I had absolute silence (but I had those days before stem cells...
First of all, I paid full price (as probably did all other people that are on swiss medica youtube page). Second - I did not said in that video that treatment cured me or anything near that. Third - It's really, really not OK to post someone's full name / lastname on public forum on internet. If...
Hi Jakob,
Yes, that's me on the video. No I did not receive any money or discount for making that video. I have wired money to them few days before my trip and video was done on my last day there.
I know that you kept name of the clinic hidden, but what's the point if you disclosed it at the...
So, today is my last day of therapy (last intramuscular injection). Last few days were really bad, and yesterday was probably worst day in months. I'm not sure what to make out of it :( Today, I'm leaving for sea side. I will try to get off TT there for couple of weeks.
Cheers
Yes, they told me that they will have new clinic here ;-) This one is good too. Yeah, I wish they had UCB and UC MSCs in Belgrade too ;-)
Thanks ! So time for quick update too: Yesterday T came back (after realativeily 4 quiet days). I was not disappointed, as I know that stem cells takes time...
Sure, I know I have septum deviation for 5 years at least. In last 2 years it became really bad (people complaining for my snoring - when even sleeping in nearby rooms ;-)). Also I have problems breathing on nose all the time ... like I have constant flu / full nose ... I did rhinometry (they...
Thanks !
Yes, he said it will be operation of deviated septum of the nose. I have lack of air on left side (tinnitus in left ear) and cracking when I yawn. He told me that I have ETD and that I have to start with operation of nose septum deviation and to remove tonsils (I have chronic...
Thanks Ears Hurt ! ;-)
Thanks grate_biff ! ;-)
Thanks a lot Glynis ! I have blocked nose for years now, it's just now that in the light of tinnitus it gain some significance ...
Hi people. Just a quick update. Last 4 days I have been receiving only detoxation / nutrients / amino - acids I.V. Wounds from adipose and bone marrow extraction have healed as well. Besides that I visited ENT day before yesterday here in Moscow. Stem cells clinic arranged / paid that for me...
Here is Dana White that says that he's meneire's is now completely gone ! So there is no clinical trials, only anecdotal reports - but all you need is one anecdotal's report - yours ! ;-)
Also he's update:
And I'm sure that there are more clinics in UK that does that. Also you can go to...
Thanks for asking girls and guys ! Time for next update ;-) So I had last 2 days 2 procedures - on Friday I had adipose tissue extraction and re-injection of SVFs and PRP. Procedure itself lasts 45 minutes and although I got local anesthetics I could still feel needle going over my fat, belly...
Hi Glynis,
thanks ! Means a lot when it comes from you - one of few people here, ready to listen to anyone who needs to talk to someone ... for your Menieres - have you seen videos by dana white ? He just had PRP and it was immediately better and stayed like that for months (years maybe?). He...
Hi glynis !
Thanks for asking - I'm going to have PRP and SVFs tomorrow. That means they will take venous blood and 100-200 cc of adipose tissue (fat) tomorrow morning ("a pound of flash"), prepare PRP and SVFs and inject them into blood around noon / 1pm ;-) This will be first operation in my...
In Swiss Medica you get far more cells for 5k USD less. Of course there are too many factors to compare (not only number of cells). For example what pass are the cells. Lower pass is better. Also viability of thawed cells (how many of those 50M or 60M are actually live etc ...). At the end you...
Actually I had ABRs measured in April 2016 and there was column called SNR. When it was too low, next to it would be written "rejected". I had rejected in higher frequencies - exactly where I have T. I will post it here, once I have post stem cells ABRs.
So next update :) I have received today 4 bottles of nutrients, 2 injections in buttocks of something to increase circulation and RNA medications (whatever that is :)), followed by IV injection of 110M UC-MSCs. I feel good - normal pulse, pressure and temperature. They will be checking all this...
Yes, cost more or less similar, with exception of India stem cells clinics where the price was significantly cheaper compared to other places.
no worries - just trying to help :) Also, I strongly believe in opensource and knowledge sharing - hence these updates :)
I was researching together with one member of this forum that approached me and asked to double efforts in search for stem cell clinic. So here is (more or less common) list:
- stemcelltreatments.in (lack of communication)
- stemcells21 (read above posts :)
- cellmedicine.com (Panama - they are...
stemcells21 asked 30k USD for 60M UCB-MSCs while Swiss medica would give 50M UCB-MSCs, 250M UC-MSCs, 600M autologous Ad-MSCs and I guess 20M BM-MSCs for 24300 USD. Also I found this article...
Well ... I would rater have stem cells donated and processed by the nation that sent first man in space, than by e.g. Thais :-) Also only to enroll in Soviet state university (let alone to finish it) is tremendous effort - I know that because in ex Yugoslavia we had same education organization...
HQ is in Switzerland and that is place where they are finding clients and then shipping them to either Belgrade or Moscow where you can do stem cells :)
I think he also did in Bangkok in same clinic. BTW, I got email from stemcells21 today telling me that they can't accept me in the future as their client if I go to Swiss Medica :))
Thanks a lot @grate_biff @Pleasure_Paulie @RaZaH @Reinier @Vincent R @Stakovic @Sebastians @glynis
I will keep you all posted!
BTW, I got in contact with one MS patient that had T as well. She undergo stem cell treatment and was listed on www.donmargolis.com blog / web site. I searched by name...
Stem cells update: Yesterday I had exactly same as day before yesterday (3 bottles of I.V. infusion followed by oxyven 15 minutes and red laser in vein for 20 mins). But today I finally got my first 80 millions stem cells from umbilical cord. They started with some big injection in lower part of...
No changes in T. Maybe a bit less louder now than when I was on 1.25 mg of xanax. Also it became louder when I started taking remeron :-( Remeron is known to be reason for T ;-(. Unfortunately, I had to take it due to depression and 7 sleepless nights that came after 3 months of 5-6 hours of...
It must be because of T :-( I never ever had any medical problem and now I have (from time to time) heart palpitations and shaking :-(. It's worst when T is quiet. I'm afraid it will return louder and I get into anxiety and it does. Like a loop without end :-(
Thanks ! I also hope that I can...
Good luck! Sorry to hear that you have withdrawal side effects :-( I'm also currently in the process of tapering off xanax. From 1.25 mg around 2 months ago to 1mg -> 0.75 -> 0.5 -> 0.375 and finally 0.25 since 7th July 2016. On 17th July I'm going to 0.125 for 10 days before 0. Or at lest that...
You see, stem cell clinic name does not matter as long as you get live and healthy stem cells and you don't get HIV / Hepatitis or some other blood transmittable virus with them. No one is going to say that he can cure your tinnitus in 2016. You have to read research papers, anecdotal reports...
This is even better news - as of 2016 for hearing loss / tinnitus one should get only MSCs. Article is about induced pluripotent cells (Yamanaka got 2012 nobel prize for finding way how to make iPSC from skin cells of adult person) - which were thought to be dangerous as they can differentiate...

p.s. If you look for my messages, you will find my question for them, and their reply ;-)
Yes, our own ATEOS and FERNANDO GIL, 2 cases from Australia (Sydney osteoarthritis clinic - tinnitus was not main issue) and one hearing loss (Francis L). Also 2 years old girl from USA that is part of hearing restoration clinical trial in Florida (James Baumgartner). Florida clinical trial is...
Yes, one of the reasons I opted for them was that they were not counting / selling cells, but more focusing on treatment - i.e. how to help/fix the problem.
I have fair income - that's why I went for this experiment ;-)
Cheers
So, today is my second day at the clinic. When I arrived yesterday I had intro exam and EKG (results are good - despite all sleepless nights which I had due to T).
This morning they took venous blood and urine for various tests and then I got I.V. 3 bottles of amino acids / vitamins and...
Hvala brate ! ;-)
Yes there is, but unfortunately they do only autologous stem cells. I insisted to go there, but swiss medica strongly recommended Moscow clinic for tinnitus. Zemun clinic is 20 mins by car and Moscow is 3 hours by plane, not big difference :-p
I have just booked mesenchymal stem cell therapy with "Swiss Medica XXI century S.A." in Moscow. I'm scheduled for 8th of July 2016 (tomorrow).
I will be there 12 days and I will get around 1 billion stem cells (they say 5-7 M stem cells per kg of body weight):
- One day I will get my own belly...
There were not studies but there were cases - one of them being Australian guy called Francis that got ~ 25 db from adipose (fat) derived stem cells, another case is Chloe that got 40 - 50 db (also got MSCs from adipose). Also 2 cases from Australian clinic that had tinnitus completely resolved...
Then how do you explain this:
https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02038972
based on this study:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18819255
Point is, there is something you can do while you wait for definite proof ;-)
Cheers
That they are so boring and empty inside, that the only way to drive attention from other people is to be loud. If they would not be so loud, no one would ever know that they even exists. I always hated loud motorbikes - now even more.

I got reply from them today
Hi xyz,
We have treated patients in the past whom have also suffered from tinnitus.
The response was rather good, to a point where the last patients tinnitus stopped completely. We also have another patient with a similar situation who noticed about a 75%...
Looks like that Australian stem cells company filled patent application Compositions and methods for the treatment of tinnitus https://www.google.com/patents/WO2014179834A1?cl=en
I googled for inventor's names Wayne Thomas, Ralph BRIGHT and found this company behind it...

I see, but this is only study on mouses http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4491783/ - meaning some time will pass when (and if) this goes into clinical treatments :-( There is no one at Kyoto that you can contact that can help (they are researchers working on animal models ... they...
I got in touch 2 months ago. I asked them about NIHL tinnitus stem cells therapy and this is what they told me:
Most of the time tinnitus caused by noise exposure damages the hair cells in your ear. The stem cells that we use are not able to become hair cells so if this is the case then our...
