My Trip to Bangkok: Stem Cell Treatment [Comments]

I think hearing loss and H goes with nerve damage, T is more of a hair cell damage issue which LLLT cannot fix unless its done by the days after damage.
I had T the minute after my accoutic trauma but H and distortion came a week later.

Adding Insult to Injury: Cochlear Nerve Degeneration after "Temporary" Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

Where are you getting this information that "T is more of a hair cell damage issue"?
 
@another sean I sent them a request for information. There is a new stem cell clinic in Miami, Florida. I've put an inquiry into them also. I figure they are located in the greatest location of the aging population. http://www.stemcellmia.com

My guess is the more people that inquire about hearing loss and tinnitus; the more likely they will try to treat it or look for a way.

@Ears Hurt , It looks like Stem Cellmia uses self harvested stem cells. Thats the same as Stem Cell Rejuvenation Center in Arizona. I contacted the one in Arizona and got an immediate response and they are very upfront with their pricing. Stem Cellmia's website isn't finished yet under Neurological services yet.

US stem cell clinics will use only "self-harvested" (autologous) stem cells - or they may face serious issues with the FDA. They will also typically refer to "minimally manipulated" cells.

The reasons for this are regulatory. Because they are using the donor's tissue and are only 'minimally' manipulating it, they claim the stem cells are not drugs and are thus not subject to FDA approval. If they were inject a person with someone else's biological material or to provide more than minimal manipulation to your biological material, then they would be giving you drugs that would require clinical trials.

This interpretation is very much open to debate. For what it is worth, the FDA is moving in the direction of treatment adipose derived stem cells as drugs though this is not settled yet.

I would like to see a middle ground between no regulation and requiring clinical trials. No one is going to invest the resources to conduct a clinical trial to extract adipose tissue, process it to obtain stem cells, and then inject the stem cells - there's nothing to patent. Thus, if they require trials for that process, it will not happen. At the same time, I would be more comfortable if there were regulations in place that imposed some standards on the clinics providing this "treatment".

Do they treat hearing related issues at Stem Cellmia? Most places in the US don't seem to claim to treat hearing due to unsuccessful results.
 
DO NOT GO TO STEM CELLS 21

NICK PYZIK EXPLAINS BELOW WHY IT'S A SCAM


None of the stem cell clinics available to the public will correct the damage you have. I'm sorry but there is just no way the stem cells they use and the methods the use will allow that. The studies put on at Japan's Kyoto University displayed that the differentiated stem cells need to be transplanted onto the damaged areas (glial scars) and even by doing so did not fully heal what auditory functions were damaged between the inner ear and the brain. There is no way stem cells from these non-FDA approved clinics will allow any sort of repair by injecting these cells through an iv and into your blood stream. I'm sure it could work for other situations, but there's just no way even if they do pass the blood-brain barrier.
 
Wading through all the half-brain posts on an Internet forum, two specific quotes come to my mind (I wonder why):

@Ears Hurt I don't know. I need to find out. I asked the one in phoenix but I need to fill out a form first and have the doctors go over my case and they will tell me then if they help me or not.
 
Since we are on the topic of stem cells, I watched VICE tonight on HBO and it was about ALS and they were showcasing the latest therapy of injecting stem cells into the spine. It was interesting because they also discussed the FDA process and why people have to go abroad if they don't get into clinical trials. They actually interviews drug makers and the FDA and covered experimental medicine. Its a good watch but sad at the same time because ALS is a real bitch of a disease and really needs to "F" off pronto. In a way it's more powerful than a success story from here as it gives you some much needed perspective.

VICE: Die Trying
 
Hello all~

I went to stem cells 21. Three months after doctors found two cancerous tumors in me and sadly it's metastasized. They think it's because of the stem cells. I'm now having treatments to fight this.

I have read through all these pages and something caught my eye~ why is @attheedgeofscience using @passerby as secondary account?

If anyone wants to hear more about my experience at the clinic~ feel free to ask.

Peace~
 
@Orea.
I am shocked to hear about your situation.
The doctors think it is because of the stem cell treatment, but I assume this is not conclusive?
Don't know what to say.
What was your experience at the stem cell clinic at the time? Did you do a lot of reading before you decided to do this treatment?
 
Please........
Hey - you are free to choose what you want to believe. if you ask me however, I would be more concerned about an infrequent poster suddenly making an entry about a stem cell treatment after no activity since december 2014

upload_2016-6-18_16-13-15.png


seems weird that someone would join the board after no activity for a year and a half, state they have been treated with stem cells, gotten cancer from it, and then at the same time be in a position to keep track of who is posting as who based on one post alone. if anything, I'd say such a person probably has a couple of other accounts they use...
 
@Orea

Could you please elaborate a little on your treatment? what kind of treatment did you get? How many cells? Intravenous and / or local injections?

What kind of tumor did you get? Where is it? What has been the response from the guys in Thailand when you told them about this?

When did you get the treatment?
 
The weird thing with Stem Cell 21 is when they want you to send a mail to them about your questions and they never answer back when you did it.
 
Could you please elaborate a little on your treatment? what kind of treatment did you get? How many cells? Intravenous and / or local injections?
Agree on all points. but in addition, I would say that one extra worthwhile point to ask would be: what was the result in terms of tinnitus improvement? And why not state it in the first place...
 
I am not convinced stem cell therapies can not do anything for hearing at this point in time. One resent example: a Stanford professor that did a small clinical trial with injecting stem cells in stroke victims could not yet explain why the results where so positive.
http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/310769.php
Quote: The researchers were surprised to find that after being injected into the brain, the SB623 cells only live for around 1 month, yet patients continued to show improvements for several months.
The notion was that once the brain is injured, it doesn't recover - you're stuck with it. But if we can figure out how to jump-start these damaged brain circuits, we can change the whole effect. We thought those brain circuits were dead. And we've learned that they're not."

End quote.
Apparently so much is still unknown. Why can this not apply for hearing? Much more research is done on the working of brains and yet the results of this small clinical trial with stem cells was unexpected.
There are more examples both positive and negative.
 
If anyone wants to hear more about my experience at the clinic~ feel free to ask.
As I already went to Stem Cells 21, I do not really feel the need to hear about your experience as such. I do however have a question for you: could you please tell me where the toilets are located at the clinic of stem cells 21?

DO NOT GO TO STEM CELLS 21

NICK PYZIK EXPLAINS BELOW WHY IT'S A SCAM
Thanks for the warning. It would, however, carry a little more weight if it had come from someone with a bit more credibility in their rucksack - here is what you posted a little while back (in a post that has since been removed apparently, but, my all seeing eye was there to immortalize the event):

Hi,

Actually I don't know what is the final result of stem cells treatment, the discussing is too long...

Is there any one can tell me if the patient getting better after treatment..

I have contacted clinic in Germany to do stem cells please have look below to there answer reply.

Before that I would like to know if anyone of you tried stem cells treatment for hearing lose or tinnitus and whats the result? please share it with me.

In Germany said, the doctor will inject stem cells inside inner ear, which is looking risky!!!! I'm afraid the result will be worst than current. please advice ...


Clinic reply:
Dear Mr. Al Kaabi,

thank you very much for your interest in our fresh cell therapy. We
are very pleased that you want to know more about our biological
Treatment.

1. First of all, we successfully treated approx. 1000 patients with ear
problems, tinnitus, inner ear problems, sensorineural hearing loss, and
general hearing loss. By injecting fresh prepared inner ear-cells,
ear-nerve-cells, and embryonic stem cells, we are able to bring a general
revitalization of all organs and the whole organism, and also specifically
of the inner-ear, and the ear-nerves.

We are able to stimulate your organism, your ear-nerves, and the related
parts of the brain to ease any blockade, bring a better blood circulation
in and around the ear, and revitalize damaged or weakened inner ear-cells,
and ear-nerve-cells. We will stabilize, revitalize, and restore any
damaged or weakened organ cells. In addition, we can stimulate the own
cell production, so that new and fresh cells can be produced.

The right combination of the needed organ cells and different body cells
will be prepared by our medical team with more than 60 years of experience
in cell therapy, and this will give us the ability to stimulate the own,
new cells production, to revitalize damaged, weakened or tired organ- and
tissue cells, increase blood circulation, and to improve the whole
organism.


2. Our Full Fresh Cell Treatment in highest concentration and with the
purest and most active cells, is the perfect and most effective Therapy -
for anti aging and revitalize your whole Body, Organs, Nerve-, Joints-,
Bones-, Cartilage Tissue, Muscles, Skin, and the Hormonal System.

We treat our patients with FRESH LIVING CELL THERAPIES from sheep
(incl.fresh Placenta cells, fresh Thymus cells, and fresh Embryonic Stem
Cells) with the highest success rate in revitalizing and restoring your
Body and Organs.

We prepare for every Patient his/her individual cell program. Therefore,
patients have to stay 6 DAYS in our Institute in Germany, to get the
highest dosage with the longest lasting results. Therefore, we give from
8-12 real Fresh Cell Injections with up to 85 different organs or parts of
organs for the highest and best improvement/revitalization, and treatment
effect.


A Living Cell Therapy, with fetal stem cells and fresh organ
cells can restore and stimulate the own organ-, nerve-, hormone-, and body
revitalization process.

Our fresh living cell therapy can stimulate and activate the whole body,
organ-system, blood circulation, metabolism, the immune-system, the
hormonal system, and the overall vitality and activity level. Therefore,
our fresh living cell therapy is a perfect anti aging therapy for face-,
nerve-, organ-, brain-, muscle-, joint-, and body rejuvenation.


A Living Cell Treatment is an entire therapy, and is primarily directed
to impove any organ-, nerve-, and body dysfunction, signs of wear and
tear (anti aging), and for the treatment of many diseases.

Moreover, a living cell therapy has an influence on psychical and physical
inconveniences. It brings first of all a general revitalization of the
organs and the organism. That means an increased vitality and activity
even an improvement of physical and psychical efficiency.

Furthermore, the hormonal-, and immune-system will be stabilized as well
as the vegetative and psychical reaction. Even the blood supply up to the
capillary end vessels will be positively influenced.

These multiple effects will enable successful results on long-existing
complaints and chronic diseases.

Based on decades of research work with numerous patients we can say that a
Living Cell Therapy may positively influence various health complaints,
and many also be used for anti-aging and general body revitalization.


A Living Cell Treatment contains a variety of needed organ cells,
including cells from organs in which stem cells are being produced. These
cells will be individual prepared for each patient, and will be injected
into the body.

The positive result of a Living Cell Therapy will be organ-, skin-,
nerve-, vessel-, muscle-, bone-, joint-, and cartilage-cell
revitalization, a better body metabolism, and an improved blood
circulation.

This fact is of particular importance, because an improved blood
circulation and body metabolism helps even further to revitalize damaged
or weakened organ-, and tissue-cells.

Furthermore, a Living Cell Therapy stabilizes and strengthens the body`s
immune system, so that you will experience much lower vulnerability to
infectious diseases.

Additionally, a Living Cell Therapy will decrease the negative
side-effects of several diseases and the aging process, by improving your
overall organism and revitalizing the mostly affected sense- organs,
strengthening and rebuilding muscles, bones and joints, and revitalizing
the also affected vascular system.

All in all, we can process around 85 different organs, organic components
and tissues. The mixture of all these parts is determined individually for
the illness and symptoms of each patient.

In our Laboratory, the needed organs will be extracted; the Living Cell
suspension will be prepared, dosed and immediately injected into the
patient.


Our statement concerning the successfulness of our Living Cell Treatment
is based on our practical knowledge of more than 100.000
Living-Cell-Treatments during the last 60 years with a share in positive
results of more than 92%.


The D. Siegfried Block Ltd. - Centre for Living Cell Therapy is worldwide

Is there any one can tell me if the patient getting better after treatment..

@attheedgeofscience underwent stem cell therapy in 2013 for tinnitus. He reports the following improvement on his profile page:

"Result: Approximately 50% improvement in tinnitus loudness (both ears)."

Full information about the stem cell treatment he received is available in a highly detailed log he posted here:

https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/my-trip-to-bangkok-stem-cell-treatment-journal.1884/

@FERNANDO GIL also underwent stem cell therapy for tinnitus at the same clinic and he reported improvements too.

Both had the stem cell therapy at the Stem Cells 21 clinic. You can watch an interview with Dr. Thein Htut, Medical Director of Stem Cells 21, discussing the clinic's approach to stem cell therapy for the inner ear.

 
I would think someone in research at the ATA would have a opinion on Stem Cells 21 clinic, if they were legit or not? At least it would be another opinion. They must have heard of them and possibly got some feedback.
 
We treat our patients with FRESH LIVING CELL THERAPIES from sheep

Let's pray everyone here knows full well that transplanting sheep cells into a human body is beyond a joke and I hope anyone even considering coming near the communication device they wish to contact a cell clinic with would first formulate the proper discourse. For example, how do these cells work? What do they do? How are they not immediately crushed by the immensely powerful active immune system? Demand that they explain this in the most detailed manner their specialist are capable of providing. Or, can they point you to scientific studies which prove it is safe, effective, and sane, to use cross species cells to treat a serious illness. Of which there are none, in which case they can explain why the hell not.

Prof. Dr. Niehans was born in 1880, this is London in 1880;

Mammalian cells are a mystery today, never mind in 1900. All he did was slather a sheep's placenta on someones face. Not unlike the radiated cosmetic creams that came out after Curie had discovered radiation.

When you read words like "negative", "revitalized", "rejuvenation", "anti-aging", "immune system", and so on, so many times in one E-mail, it's obvious that someone translated German straight into bollocks.
They also mention an institute, which is a blatant lie as they're not part of any university. With the level of intelligible content that went into that mail I'd be surprised if they're not just a family of sheep herders that went into skin care.. The clinic they operate is registered as a cosmetics clinic, not a medical facility.
 
There is another Clinic in Bangkok that specifically treats hearing problems:
http://www.tonsonmedical.com/index.html
$14,000 for 10 days inclusive, but no flights.

Both Stemcells21 and Tonson Medical Group are recommended by RSCI.
http://www.repairstemcells.org/Home.aspx


Here is a bit of detail on the protocol (follow the link) and advertised success rate of stem cell therapy for hearing disorders at the Tonson Medical Group:

"85% of our patients have 10%-30% improvements when they depart, and with the home therapy they can go up another 10%. Those who wish to try for more have the option of coming back for a second two week treatment for 10% less cost, after a proper waiting period."

http://repairstemcells.org/getattac...48d3/21st-Century-Stem-Cells-For-Healing.aspx
 
I easily have a 10% variation between days. I am not only talking about hearing threshold. That already can vary
10 %.
I know this because I am doing a neuromodulator therapy. Often I need to adjust the volume.
Also some days my hyperacusis and tinnitus are much better than other days. More than 10% variation.
30% consistent improvement I would find easier to link to a therapy/treatment.
