Synopsis "Everyday Miracles: Curing Multiple Sclerosis, Scleroderma, and Autoimmune Diseases by Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant"
A life-changing treatment is conquering auto-immune disorders--why doesn't anyone know about it? Thirty-five years ago, Dr. Richard Burt began a journey to treat chronic autoimmune diseases as they'd never been treated before. Using a treatment originally developed for leukemia but modified to be more gentle--a one-time combination of immune targeting drugs followed by a transplant of the patient's blood stem cells--he has documented the successful and often dramatic reversal of multiple sclerosis, systemic sclerosis (scleroderma), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIPD), neuromyelitis optica, and Crohn's disease. After decades of study and randomized trials, his approach, which has been duplicated in other parts of the world, is finally being recognized as an effective means of reversing these "incurable" diseases. Some of his patients have been symptom-free for more than twenty years, and in this book Dr. Burt tells their stories alongside his own journey of developing and refining the treatment, known as hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for autoimmune disorders. "These patients are the heroes," Dr. Burt has said. "Their bodies and spirits faced unrelenting disease, and yet they fight valiantly against the suffering and obstacles." What is HSCT? How does it work? What are the risks? Why aren't more doctors talking about it? And why is it still out of reach for so many patients who could benefit from it? Dr. Burt answers these questions and many more. Written for the layperson, Everyday Miracles grants patients with autoimmune diseases and the people who love them insights into the revolutionary approach that could convert their life sentence into a one-time reversible illness.
