We have decided to move ahead with the stem cell transplant. It will most likely be the second week of June. Spoke to the doctor for an hour this morning in Scottsdale and learned so much. Pretty much a crash course Boot Camp in stem cell engineering! I look forward to documenting this process on my blog during the transfusion and after. If this can help in anyway anybody who suffers from chronic pain, CRPS or arachnoiditis and any other debilitating disease that has stolen your life, this will all be worth it.  Making a decision such as this is one that we do not take lightly. It has been almost a year of research and following several cases undergoing the transfusion. Ultimately one of my dearest friends who happens to have my identical condition of Arachnoiditis and CRPS,  underwent a specific type of transfusion done solely by one doctor in particular out of Scottsdale Arizona and her results have been magnificent. The doctor is Dr. Todd Malan. I have never felt so confident in a decision in my life. I look forward to sharing this experience with you all.
