I’ve been suffering for ten years and have tried almost everything and claimed success for many of the things I tried only to return in a week or two claiming I failed and was sick again. Stem cell therapy is the first thing I have tried with long term gains that have lasted many months.
Much better sensation, better erections, and during sex I can stay focused on what I am doing instead of the crazy racing thoughts I used to have. I’m doing a lot better, and the rate of improvement has really gone into high gear.
A lot of people have a tendency to compare things that are not really comparable. PFS is not MS. And was your friends stem cell injection adipose tissue-derived?
As for broken pecker there are so many differences between his situation and mine. A few points:
-He is not even at the three month mark yet and it takes longer than that to notice differences. If you look at the history of my posts on this thread you’ll see that it wasn’t until month three that I really started to notice vast improvements and it wasn’t until month 5 that I was able to really start enjoying a very active sex live again.
-He paid about half of what I did and the doctor only lipoed out about 1/3 the amount of fat mine did. I’m almost sure that he had vastly less cells put in his body
-Broken Pecker has different symptoms than I did and his therapy may progress differently. We’re not the same cases. I never had shrunken testicles, never became obsessed with suicide the way he is. I had emotional blunting, but always wanted to LIVE so I could see the day I recovered. Sometimes I think the only thing in this world that give BP a hard on is blowing his brains out with one of his guns. My thing was mostly emotional blunting and sexual issues.
I’m still convinced that both Broken Pecker and Kentucky will be back here in 4-5 months with vast improvements to report. In my own private conversations (I won’t say more because they are private) with Kentucky, he is already experiencing vast improvements.
And, finally, yes, you are right, I have made dramatic claims in past about being recovered but I was always back in a few days saying I was back to square one. This is the first time I managed SUSTAINABLE recovery for many months. I’ve been having an active sex life now for many months and I never dreamed the day would come where that would be possible again. I shared your skepticism and was very reluctant to claim any victories in the first few months because I didn’t want this to turn into another kos clusterfuck. At this point, at least for me, this has been a huge help in putting me on the road to recovery.
Very happy to hear it’s working out for you, man. You deserve it after suffering for so long.
I’m only 4 months into PFS and I’m somewhat confident I’ll be able to make a natural recovery. If years are passing with no improvements though I’ll be more than happy to drop the cash on a stem cell treatment if it shows permanent results for all you guys doing it. Sucks it apparently makes your hair loss kick into overdrive, though. Mine’s already advanced quite a bit due to PFS.
If our condition has something to do with some epigenetic modulation of the nuclear receptor family of genes then this therapy, which comes with no scientific basis anyway, makes about as much sense as cutting off your foot to relieve a toothache. HDAC inhibitors or something along those lines makes infinately more sense at this point. Again, according to the direction of the current research and collective opinions of those with research backgrounds.
I never cease to be amazed by how many guys will fly to the other side of the country (or world in the case of Kos) on the word of a few people on the board they’ve never met before and attempt therapies with no basis in science and no lab work showing improvement in vit D, 3 adiol G, FSH, LH, etc. Maybe a good rule of thumb is to see whether or not a particular therapy is used by research universities and their affiliated hospitals where their methods are held to the highest standards. When you think about it anything at all, like Ricci healing, is practiced on the clinical level.
I’ve been trying to set up a consult with one of the top regenerative medicine researchers who has a background in urology. They should have a handle on what stem cell therapies are available now and what is possible in the realistic future. I’ve always seen my (our) recovery as 2 steps: getting whatever the root cause is treated then attempting to repair the damage done. It seems right now stem cells might be more applicable to step 2 than to step 1.
Some progress, been 4 months for me now. Its tough to tell without blood work if anything is actually happening. I don’t think I am anywhere near cured.
I’m a week away from month 7 and have improved considerably since my last post. It’s almost like a switch has been flipped and that started some kind of momentum keeps building. I started doing a grueling cardio workup and since I started exercising things have been improving up even more and my body is healing even faster. I don’t know if the stem cell therapy is driving the healing now or the exercise, but I wouldn’t have had the energy to do the exercise without the stem cell therapy. When your body feels good and you get the endorphin rush after a workout, exercise is no longer the chore it used to be
I remember trying exercise 2 years ago and I felt like complete garbage afterwards and had such poor energy levels I just gave up.
I was actually on the fence about coming back here and telling the public that I am still improving. All those percentages I put out there in my other post need to be ratcheted up a few notches, but there is so much negativity here it’s hard to deal with it. boston332’s post really got my goat…I’m not sure why people latch onto certain theories and their theories are “science” and every other theory becomes quackery.
I noticed this last week I am STARVING when I am hungry. It’s like an all consuming RAGE of hunger that transcends all logic and reason. I had no idea I lost this due to PFS. I also believe appetite and sex drive are connected. Just out of curiosity, how many of you lost your appetites due to PFS?
