Does Stem Cell Therapy work for Neuropathy?

Yes, a big rip-off. I also flushed the 9 grand down the toilet. If you have any other approaches that are better and cheaper, please share. My neuropathy is in my feet.

At this point it is just research. A local doctor does the treatments but tells you up front
that it costs $14,000 and is not covered by Medicare or insurance.
Thank you for transferring me to this existing discussion!

I am not diabetic. I did go on a strict diet. Cutting out bad carbs ( sugar bread dairy vegetables with lot of sugar ( corn). I used infared light vibration plate and tens unit. I was and still am able to walk 4 miles a day.
I have the diet plan buy it is long ( too much to post here)

Hi pogo. Thanks for your input. Can you elaborate on "other approaches" and what the benefits may have been.

Diet I have diet plan but it is 2 pages will send it upon request. Infared light therapy vibration plate and tens unit. I also walked a lot.
Diet & walking I lost 55lb.

Has anyone had experience with treating neuropathy numbness with Platelet rich plasma injections or stem cell injections to repair or regenerate nerve cells which are severely damaged ??

Hello @1puttman. Since there is an existing discussion on a similar topic, you will notice I have moved your post here:

Has this been recommended to you?

I have a meeting with a chiropractor next week who claims to be able to "wake up" dead nerve cells with one or both of these methods. I am unable to find anyone who has had success with these treatments so the reason for my inquiry.

There are a lot of the chiropractor clinics that claim to "cure" neuropathy but I'm not aware of anyone who has received stem cell therapy that fixed their neuropathy symptoms. Back in August of 2018 we had a guest speaker who has done a lot of research on stem cell therapy at the Minnesota Neuropathy Association. I took notes and a lot of links on his talk and while some of the information was hopeful, I don't believe there have been any breakthroughs yet.

Speaker: William Hoffman of the U of M Medical School
Topic: Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine: A Revolution Picks Up the Pace

I guess I would do a little research of the science involved that the chiropractor is using. You might find this handbook helpful also.
