Comments from patient:  Dr. A.L. Yates

Communications with www.stemcells21.com:

Paperwork expeditiously completed, rationally explained by Mr. Paul Collier, who is a key person at Jai Communications Limited (stemcells21). They were always on hand to make sure that we had all necessary info and that procedures were smoothly expedited as outlined.

Medical/nursing staff:

Medical: The treating doctor is very knowledgeable in the field of cellular medicine and the protocol is very sophisticated. He spends time talking and teaching patients about how stem cells work in our bodies.

Nursing: The nursing staff at the medical centre are delightful and the service is well organized.

Information Given:

All questions we had were answered by the treating doctor, sometimes via the readily available team at Jai Communications, who went out of their way to collect us from the airport at 1am in the morning. The complex treatment schedule was well organized and implemented efficiently.

Accommodation:

We stayed at Centre Point serviced apartments on Wireless Road, close to the medical centre. They had excellent facilities and a brilliant free breakfast every morning.

 

The experience was far better than I had expected

The hypothenar eminence on the left seems to be filling out, perhaps 20% better than before I got the treatment.  Arthritic pain and stiffness is somewhat better. What hasn't improved, so far, is the narcolepsy in that the profound need to nap and loss of energy over most of the day seems not to have changed.  I relate the tiredness and lack of motivation to the mitochondria.  'When I'm good, I'm very, very good but when I'm bad, I'm awful (as my mother used to say).'  But it's only the first month, so we'll have to see.
 
Everything went well because you were the glue that kept it all together. 

I was observing Dr. Chatchai's technique closely - he was taking sterile precautions, identified landmarks for placement of the needle, and administered the injection deftly and accurately, pacing the injection itself, slowly as indicated.

Update from patients: 13/10/09

 
Less morning stiffness and improved flexibility but still have joint swelling and pain in digits of left hand.  Best of all, my balance has continued to improve (which translates into postural and gait improvement).  As I mentioned before, my PT independently noted these changes too.
 
The persistent problem is related to the narcolepsy, which has become worse since the treatment and more resistant to stimulant meds.  However, Provigil (modafinil) still helps me wake up in the morning.  It used to be that I would sleep about 6 hours a night and take 3 naps in the daytime.  Now I sleep 8 hours a night and take 6 or more naps in the daytime, plus I'm very sleepy inbetween with a significant loss of energy, depression, and diminished cognitive function.  I keep telling myself that any change may predict improvement and that no one knew how narcolepsy would or would not respond.
