Hi. About one month today, simply by examining the chest x-ray, my doctor told me that I had interstitial pulmonary fibrosis.I wonder if stem cells will soon work miracles. I have been searching the net for whatever new research has been done in this area and would certainly like to know more about this.

I am in Florida for the winter and a lung institute is just in the next city over. I called them and they explained they do two types of stem cell treatments. One is using the stem cells from the blood and the other is from the bone marrow. Price was around $6000 for blood and &12,000 for the bone. No guarantees on it, except they'll take your money for sure. I have IPF and am looking for that cure all too, however, if it's to good to be true.............At this juncture I am hesitant to embark on this journey as my Pulmonologist (Cleveland Clinic) is a skeptic because of the lack of research out there. That's what I have found out from talking with the lung institute. It's a tough decision.
I google everything there is a lot of information on the internet
