Stemcell Therapy with an Ileostomy

Hey guys! My names Jo and I was diagnosed in 2010 with RR. I’ve been on numerous meds since and it’s got to the point now that my consultant said my MS is so aggressive that stemcell is the only option.

I met with the dr today in London at St Bart’s Hospital and he said they hadn’t done stemcell on anyone with a stoma before… just wondering if anyone has been through this with a stoma or knows anyone? I just need to know how they got on? Thankyou in advance for your help

Jo :slight_smile:

Sorry, no advice to give but my husband had a stem cell transplant at Barts in 2019. The treatment and care he got was amazing. They are a wonderful team there.

It might be worth asking on the facebook group, as they probably have more experience.

Hi Louise, does your hubby have MS and did stem cell help?

No he doesn’t have MS. He has blood cancer and so had it for that

Hi OH I see.

Hope he is as well as he can be.
