Kimg, You're referring to the macrophage procedure. Go to www.proneuron.com or call Dr. Daniel Lammertse at Craig Hospital - # 303-789-8000.

Good luck.

Let us know how you make out and how else we can help.

Onward and Upward!

Purdue University also has a clinical trial involving alternating electric currents to regenerate the spinal cord. http://carecure.org/forum/showpost.php?p=249892

kimg, contact Dr. Henrich Cheng in Taiwan, and speak to his English-speaking secretary, Jennifer: 886-2-28712121 ext 3257.

Why? When I was there this January, not only Dr. Cheng but several of his associates emphatically stated that his procedure works best in acute/recent injuries; we heard stories of patients recieving his procedure within the first few weeks post-injury, and many regained function relatively soon; one man, c-6 complete, after his surgery, walked out of the hospital. Cheng was very confident he could help in acute cases. I believe it is worth a call, immediately.
