Currently, many neurological diseases are incurable in the conventional medicine field. Patients with neurological diseases often suffer from paralysis, loss of social interaction functions, and inability to take care of themselves, which is a heavy burden to the whole family. Stem cells possess self-renewal and multidirectional differentiation potential, which makes them an ideal cell source for nerve repair and regeneration. In recent years, stem cell therapy has emerged as a very promising treatment method for those intractable neurological diseases.
The Beneficial Effects Of Stem Cell Therapy On Neurological Diseases
Stem cell therapy has brought new hope to patients with diseases in the nervous system. Stem cells are a type of cells with self-renewal ability and multidirectional differentiation potential. Stem cell therapy for neurological diseases can restore patients’ motor, sensory, urination, and defecation functions to different levels. The patients also had an improvement in their self-care ability as well as their overall quality of life. Stem cell therapy rarely invokes immune rejection. The treatment is safe, free from side effects, and with significant repair/regeneration effects.
Stem cell therapy helps:
Regenerate new neurons
Improve the microcirculation of neurons and glial cells
Reduce the degeneration of nerve cells
Restore nerve cell function
Reduce or eliminate inflammation
Improve the microcirculation of neurons and glial cells
Restoring the transmission capacity of the nerve impulses
Promote angiogenesis and improve blood supply to the brain
Reduce autoimmune attacks
Reduce the recurrence rate of the diseases
Restore patient movement ability and consciousness
Neurological Diseases That Stem Cell Therapy Can Treat
Stroke
Epilepsy
Parkinson’s Disease
Cerebral infarction
Multiple sclerosis
Alzheimer's disease (senile dementia)
Traumatic brain injury
Cerebral hemorrhage
Cerebral Palsy (CP)
Motor neuron disease/amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Spinal cord injury
Ataxia
Myelitis
Encephalopathy syndrome
Hereditary spastic paraplegia
A published statistical analysis paper has shown that 1279 patients with ischemic stroke had their conditions improved after mesenchymal stem cell transplantation. Compared to patients who received conventional drug treatment only, patients had better therapeutical effects if they had mesenchymal stem cell transplantation at the same time. As the progression of the research effort, stem cell transplantation is expected to bring more promising results for patients with neurological diseases.
Learn More About Neurological Diseases
The human nervous system consists of the central and peripheral nervous system. The central nervous systems includes the brain and the spinal cord. The spinal cord extends downwards, and the peripheral nerves originating from the spinal cord are all over the limbs and trunk, which together form a vast network of nerve signaling. On one hand, the information perceived by the whole body is continuously fed back to the brain through the spinal cord, and on the other hand, it also issues the instruction given by the brain to control muscle movements of the whole body.
Neurological diseases refer to an illness that occurs in the central or peripheral nervous system. they are mainly manifested by disturbances of sensation, consciousness, movement, etc., including Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, spinal cord injury, etc. Those diseases often lead to a series of consequences, such as intellectual impairment or limb damage, even death, some patients will remain disabled for life even after treatment.
Risk Factors For Neurological Diseases
The etiology of neurological diseases is complex and diverse, and the risk factors for many diseases are still being explored. It can be caused by the following factors：
Factor TypeFactor Description
External force or traumaNeural injury during accident, fracture, or damage during surgery or examination.
Nerves pinched by structurally deformed joints or bones that are caused by lesions.
Maintaining a certain posture or engaging in heavy labor for a long time, leads to continuous compression of nerves.
Systemic diseases and infectious factorsVarious chronic cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis, vascular stenosis, diabetes
Autoimmune diseases: such as lupus erythematosus, Sjogren’s syndrome, vasculitis, etc.
Viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic infections such as HIV.
Long-term heavy mental stress or excessive fatigue
Liver and kidney function damage: abnormal metabolism in the body, accumulation of toxic waste.
Chemotherapy drugs and radiation therapy history
Dietary and environmental factorsAddicted to pickled food, and too much intake of nitrite or other food additives.
Vitamin B12 deficiency or absorption/metabolism disorders.
Chronic alcoholism or smoking (including second-hand smoke)
Injecting or inhaling drugs.
Excessive heavy metal elements in the body.
Family historyif someone in the family has the disease, the risk will be significantly higher than in the general population. for example, migraine, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, etc.
Congenital defectsMalformations or defects in vertebral or cerebrovascular structures during embryonic development. Or Gene mutations lead to abnormal neural structure or cell function.
Clinical Symptoms Of Neurological Diseases
Although different types of neurological diseases have different pathogenic factors and pathogenesis, they ultimately damage the structure and function of nerve tissue. Patients with neurological diseases usually have the following symptoms:
Loss of motor function, inability to control muscles, or muscle weakness
Lack of physical coordination and inability to walk normally
Loss of cold, heat, and tactile sensations, hard to complete delicate and complex movements
Paresthesia, possibly localized tingling, numbness, itching
Incontinence
Blurred mind, memory loss
Difficulty in speech understanding and speaking, or slurred pronunciation
Loss of cognitive abilities, abnormal mental behaviors
Visual or hearing impairment
Advantages Of Stem Cell Treatment For Neurological Diseases
Conventional treatments for neurological disorders include supportive therapy, drug therapy, and surgery. All three conventional treatments can only relieve the patient's symptoms and do nothing to cure the patient's disease. In addition, drug treatment will also have various side effects, which will cause secondary damage to the patient's body. For patients with neurological diseases, there is an urgent need for a cure that can cure neurological diseases, that is, stem cell therapy.
Stem cell therapy
Conventional treatment
Longevity
If treated in the early stage, in the long run, stem cell therapy can eliminate drug dependency and return the patient to a healthy life. After the functional recovery of the nervous system, the patients can perform normal movements with a reduction of pain. This is a long-term effect.
If conducted at a later stage, stem cell therapy can still reduce drug dependency, and in rare cases, you might need several treatment regimens.
The effect of drug therapy is short-term, requiring medication daily, and when the medication is stopped, the symptoms of the disease will resume or even worsen. You will need to take the medicine for the rest of your life.
Curative Treatment or diseases management
Stem cell therapy is a new way to treat neurological diseases, which aims to repair or regenerate damaged nerve cells and tissues, thus helping the nervous system restore a healthy state, and rebuild its function of the nervous system. if treated with stem cells at an early stage, the damages to the nervous system can be reversed, freeing you from supportive devices, drugs, and even surgery.
Conventional methods for the treatment of neurological diseases include supportive therapy, drug therapy, and surgical therapy. Supportive therapy is mainly using an external device to help the patient with self-care ability. Drug therapy is the basic plan for treating neurological diseases. Its purpose of it is to relieve symptoms such as inflammation and pain. Surgical therapy mainly helps patients remove the necrotic tissue.
All three methods can only temporarily relieve the patient’s symptoms but cannot completely cure the disease.
Dosage
When stem cells repair damaged nerve cells and tissues, your symptoms will gradually ease or disappear, normal movements of the body can be restored, and the dosage of medicines can be gradually reduced. Drug dependence can be completely reversible if stem cell therapy is given at an early stage.
Stem cell experts based on your current level of disease and other comorbidities will design a customized protocol and decide, the number of stem cells, source of stem cells, and cycles of stem cell therapy.
If you choose drug therapy, you will find the dose of the drug gradually increase, and it is difficult to have treatment effects if the dose of medication is not enough, your body may become addicted to some medications, and require larger doses to be effective.
Side-effects
No Side-effects as stem cells are our cells that are used to treat the disease and regenerate lung tissue to regain proper functioning.
Drugs may have side effects on the central nervous system, such as emotional instability, drug addiction, inhibition of central nervous system responses, hallucinations, etc.
Convenience
Stem cell therapy is performed by stem cell specialists which requires a special laboratory to process the stem cells and the medical set-up to extract and inject the stem cell.
The therapy is going to be injection-based and needs to be performed in a hospital.
It is relatively easy to take medications, but you may need to take them multiple times a day, taking medication for a long time can lead to drug addiction.
How Can Stem Cell Therapy For Neurological Diseases Work
Multidirectional differentiation potential: Stem cells can differentiate into a variety of nerve cells after homing to the lesion area and integrate into the surrounding tissue environment of the nervous system. Stem cells will then replace dead or damaged nerve cells in the body, therefore, repairing the damaged neural networks.
Paracrine effect: Stem cells can secrete a variety of cytokines, including basic fibroblast growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, nerve growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, etc., which have neuroprotection, nutritional support effects, promote damaged tissue repair, and induce regeneration of axons and myelin
Immunomodulatory effect: After stem cells are infused back into the body, they can regulate immune cell function and reduce inflammatory response by reducing the antibody production from B cells, inhibiting the activation of T cells, and suppressing the secretion of cytokines by immune cells, thereby reducing nerve cell damage and necrosis.

This is a picture of my own front teeth and what happened to them! They just started falling out! No reason.......
I don't have the money to fix them. I live on social security disability which is very low income. I can barely afford the co-pays for my medicines.
So, what is a person suppose to do?
Do I live the rest of my life without teeth?
Will a stranger donate teeth to me?
This disease can ruin your life AND YOUR FAMILY'S TOO!

Neurological problem The emergency vet treatment of animals by acupuncture has been around for 3,000 years but has recently gained more popularity. Is it painful and what are the side effects? All the details inside.
Animal Care by Acupuncture Life is one of the five streams of animal medicine in Chinese medicine. Emergency clinics have been using this method for years, but while acupuncture has been used mainly for animals and horses, acupuncture is now used mainly to treat pets.
According to Chinese medicine, the human body and animals have main energy channels called meridians, through which the energy of qi passes. The energy of qi is life energy and in a healthy state it flows freely through these energy channels, but when there is shortage or excess energy, diseases and other problems can arise. Acupuncture comes to solve the problem of energy flow to restore the situation to normal.
How does an emergency vet perform acupuncture?
Acupuncture is performed by using sterile, thin disposable needles. Acupuncture is done according to the Chinese medicine theory, and the only difference between human and animal care lies in the various energy centers and in the various parts of the bodywhere they gently pierce the needles
How long does treatment take?
The length of treatment varies depending on the severity of the condition of the animal. While a simple problem can be eliminated in individual sessions compared to a more acute problem that could take several dozen treatments.
What causes acupuncture treatment?
For animals acupuncture can help in one or more of the following situations:
- Musculoskeletal problems such as arthritis or vertebrae problems
Neural damage
- Breathing problems such as asthma in cats
- Skin problems such as dermatitis or allergy
- Digestive problems such as diarrhea
- fertility problems
Seasonal diseases
In addition to these problems, acupuncture can help and treat sports injuries following running, jumping and swimming
Does it hurt animals?
If the needles are in their designated location, they do not cause pain. However, acupuncture treatment includes symptoms such as tingling, cramping or numbness that occur in humans, but animals may be alarmed. Usually during the treatment animals are in a very relaxed state and some even doze off.
Are there side effects?
Acupuncture side effects are rare but can occur. Sometimes the animal's medical condition worsens to 48 hours after treatment and other times the animals stay sleepy or older than normal for 24 hours after treatment. These effects are positive and are an indication that acupuncture is effective.

UCSF Neurology. Stephen Hauser greeted me at the Weill Institute for Neurosciences at UCSF with the kind of presence that immediately quiets a room, not through authority, but warmth. There’s something patient and steady in his demeanor. The kind of person who, even after decades at the front lines of medicine, still makes you feel like he’s right there with you, fully. No distance. No armor.
Hauser is best known for transforming our understanding and treatment of multiple sclerosis. For much of the twentieth century, MS remained a stubborn mystery. The prevailing theories focused on T cells. But Hauser, drawing from both intuition and evidence, kept coming back to the role of B cells. It was an unpopular view for years. He persisted.
That persistence changed the world. Through careful experiments and dogged collaboration with immunologists and neurologists across continents, Hauser and his team developed a B cell-targeted therapy that dramatically altered the course of the disease. What had been a cruel and unpredictable spiral for patients became something that could be slowed, managed, even arrested. The treatment, now used around the globe, is one of the clearest examples in modern medicine of science reshaping fate. Millions of people are living freer lives because he stayed the course.
But that isn’t the whole story. In person, Hauser radiates kindness. He listens more than he speaks. He remembers small things and follows up. During our visit, he was quick to credit his colleagues and trainees. There is no trace of the solitary genius trope. Instead, you get the sense of a man who believes deeply in teams, in shared discovery, in lifting others.
He writes about this beautifully in his memoir, The Face Laughs While the Brain Cries. It’s an honest, often poetic look at his life in medicine—his own early fears, the patients who shaped him, the losses, the breakthroughs. The title comes from a moment that only a neurologist might recognize: the face of a patient with a certain kind of brain injury, smiling mechanically while the person inside weeps. That kind of dissonance, between surface and soul, is something Hauser has spent a lifetime trying to bridge.
There is something sacred about the work he does. Not in a lofty, abstract sense, but in the way he remains present with patients. The way he speaks about them, decades after seeing them last. The way he still seems a little awed by biology itself.
As we wrapped our session, I asked him what still drives him. He paused for a long moment before answering. Then he said, “Because it’s not finished. There is still more we don’t understand than we do.” He smiled. “And I still believe we can help.”
That, in the end, might be the most remarkable thing about Stephen Hauser. Not just what he’s accomplished, but that after all this time, he still walks forward with wonder.

Sorry for the poor quality!
Poppy's first time on a train today, she loved it! The purpose was to go to Great Ormond Street Hospital for her final check up at the neurology department. Woo hoo! Discharged from there but referred to 3 different paed departments - respiratory, allergy/dietician and physio for her hypermobility! She likes to keep us on our toes.
We had a full house for this event! In the morning we ran a 'Rough Guide to Neurology' for health and social care professionals. The afternoon was for people living with a long-term neurological condition - 'My needs, my services, my life'.
I don`t really look / dress like a smart person, but this book in my hands makes me look smrat on the train.

It's your moment, I won't miss!
The vet nurse guessed that this red headed sparrow sustained some kind of neurological damage (versus, say, a broken neck).
Neighborhood kids brought yet another wild creature to my front door on July 4th. The two had been riding bikes and had noticed this tiny bird lying in the grass below a tree. One of the kids scooped it up into his oversized t-shirt (the other, Nancy, telling me that she showed him how not to put his hands all over it, just like I'd showed her last year during the Incident of the Fallen Baby Birds).
We were having a downpour at the time, but I nestled the wounded sparrow into a towel, popped on some Birkies and headed to the nearer of the two emergency vet clinics I'd guessed might be open on a public holiday.
While I drove I had the towel next resting on my lap both so I could keep checking the health status of our tiny patient and also so that ... well, maybe it's the mom in me. Gotta keep 'em close, y'know? Just as I turned into the vet clinic parking lot, the sparrow had a surprising surge of freaked-out energy and spastically flew around the inside of my car, escaping the towel nest, escaping my hands, scaring the crap out of me, and eventually settling underneath the driver's seat. So I hung there, half-in, half-outside the car, reaching underneath the seat to retrieve the frightened and obviously wounded bird.
Once inside the vet clinic we did a wild critter hand-off, I filled out the paperwork based on the little information I had on the creature, and I apologized for not being able to make a donation this time around. The gal at the counter was very kind, thanking me and insisting that the little bird will be fine after a little TLC and a few days.

HOW TO CHANGE THE COURSE OF A DISEASE
It’s the last frontier: the human brain. When it comes to medical treatment, the brain and central nervous system remain the darkest, most forbidding, realm—even as our knowledge of how the brain and mind work grows by leaps each year. Now, some say we are at the edge of genuine breakthroughs in treatment for diseases that have haunted humankind for generations, from Huntington’s to ALS to Alzheimer’s. Two warriors on the front lines of brain science will share the latest discoveries and discuss what it will take to solve the most complex puzzles of our most complex organ.

I’m learning a lot about why I’ve always felt the way I do, I read over some old Flickr descriptions when I was in high school to find signs of my condition showing. Looking back you can see all the signs I wasn’t healthy, but at the time I didn’t know it wasn’t normal. Funny how a Flickr account was something I used to tell everything, things I didn’t really tell my parents.
