I also found a recently published study, that shows how patients who had been treated with the BCG vaccine – vaccine used to prevent tuberculosis – had normal blood sugar levels eight years after the trial ended, and their Type 1 diabetes was reversed to almost undetectable levels.

No, I was not familiar with these findings. It does sound very encouraging, though. There haven't been many studies that offer cures for any type of diabetes.
What a good question! Perhaps someone will post who has been involved in a clinical trial regarding this. In the meantime, Mayo Clinic has a department for Regenerative Medicine and when I looked at their website it appears as if they are working on this for diabetics.

Here is a link to a website about stem cell research for diabetes, https://www.mayoclinic.org/search/search-results?q=diabetes%20stem%20cell%20treatment
How long have you had Diabetes?
thank you so much, do you know anyone that reversed type one?
@santina
No I don't. Perhaps someone will respond to your post, though. I hope so!
Dear Teresa, who would administer this vaccine?
