Hello Clipper@Clipper. I do realize there are no approved treatments or procedures available in the United States for COPD. Many Dr's in America are offering to do these procedures over the border in Mexico and charging $12 to $15 thousand dollars per treatment and claim you will need at least 3 treatments. Many hospitals and Clinics in Mexico are offering Umbilical stem cell treatments in Mexico and other Countries for $3,000 to $5,000 and tell you 1 treatment is sufficienent. There are a lot of fakes out there so I really have to do my homework. Many have gone over the border for hip, knee and shoulder procedures and many have had great success. Not all but just like other treatments not all work for all people.

@justapril Hi, there are approved procedures in the US just not stem cell therapy as of yet. The existing stem cell therapies do not work and because there have been no valid clinical studies the potiential risks are unknown. It is unproven science, people should not be wasting money they need to pay medication that does help.
