Unfortunately, there is no scientifically proven stem cell treatment for MS — not yet anyway. As the National Multiple Sclerosis Society says on its Web site:

“There have been a number of stem cell therapy clinics around the world that have claimed to have successfully treated people with MS and people with many other disorders with stem cells. However, none have provided scientific or medical evidence that their treatments work, either short-term or long-term, or are safe. Some of these clinics have been closed down when health authorities learn of their practices, but they continue to crop up especially in countries with weak oversight by health authorities.”

Bottom line: buyer beware!

Hello,
I am a 41 male dianosed with MS since 89 and I am currently searching for a qualified Stem Cell center to have the therapy becvause of mobility difficulty. I live in Saudi Arabia and was very much pleased with the success story of the ladies from New Jersey that had the therapy and I am very eager to have the same procedure done as early as next month if possible. There are numerous facilities that claim professionalism and experience in the stem cell field that lead me to request endorsements of MS organizations. There are success stories that took place in Costa Rica, others in Panama and Mexico. While these success stories took place for patients from the U.S, I am hopeful to obtain your guidance of other qualified clinics with a proven record in the Middle East or Europe.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
