First stem cell treatment in 2006

In November 2006 the doctors extracted bone marrow from my hipbone. The procedure was completely painless. After that the stem cells were isolated and processed at the laboratory. Once that process had been completed the cells were re-injected by angiography. This means a small catheter was placed in the artery of my leg and was directed to the pancreatic artery and there the cells were injected. In contrast to the extraction, the re-injection process was not completely painless and it hurt just a little bit. How curious I was about the changes in prospect.

The result

I was told that I would have to wait for approximately two to six months until any effects would occur. However, I faced significant improvement only two months after the cells had been re-injected. At night my blood sugar dropped dramatically. Today I have to take 60% less of the immediate release insulin and 40% less of the slow release insulin. My blood sugar keeps dropping and I am still cutting down on insulin. I think that is just great!
