Default Marburg Variant MS

My husband has the worst MS possible! I know there has to be clinical trials or a special doctor looking for someone in his condition. He is currently taking Tysabri and tons of pills and the best pain relief.

I strongly believe stem cell will be his best option, but he is a rare case and someone will make headlines if they can help him. We just get docs who want to charge us $30k. and I don't think so!

I've already searched the clinical connection and nothing.
If anyone has any suggestions or advise, I would appreciate it very much.

Thank you.

Thanks for your post. There has only been 1 clinical trial ever listed on ClinicalConnection.com for Marburg Variant MS, so clinical trials for this specific variation of MS are very rare. You would probably have more luck looking for clinical trials for MS and see if any of them are seeking patients with the types of symptoms that your husband has. You can search for nearby MS trials at http://www.clinicalconnection.com/cl...sclerosis.aspx.

We wish you luck!
