6 months post stem cell transplant what to expect?

Male | 34

Gradual recovery and improved immune function can be observed about six months post-stem cell transplant. Most transplant-related side effects should wear off, and your energy might improve too. Regular sessions with your medical care team will keep track of progress and you can possibly resume activities to normal levels. Individual recovery can often differ and the guidance from your Doctor for further care and modifications to your lifestyle should not be neglected.

Life expectancy after stem cell transplant?

Female | 41

Life after the stem cell transplant also varies greatly and depends on many factors such as medical condition prior to the operation, age of patient, general health status before when during and after it was done with good results. Stem cell transplants are capable of leading to very long-standing remission or even cure for a few diseases, mainly hematological malignancies in such situations. However, implantation as a procedure itself is associated with risks and complications; results vary for each individual. First and foremost, close monitoring by well-trained doctors assisting in post transplant care as well as regular follow up is essential for optimizing long term outcomes. It is necessary to address peculiar expectations and prognosis with your healthcare works, as they can offer the most precise information considering specific conditions.

Why do parkinson's patients keep their eyes closed?

Female | 36

Parkinson's disease can disrupt eye movements, causing difficulties in coordination and initiation. This oculomotor dysfunction, coupled with symptoms like bradykinesia, may lead individuals to close their eyes. This adaptive behavior helps reduce visual input, stabilizing gaze, improving balance, and mitigating the risk of falls.

My mom has motor neurone disease will i get it ?

Female | 20

The risk of inheriting Motor Neuron Disease (MND) depends on the specific genetic mutations. Having a parent with MND does not guarantee that you will develop the condition, as the majority of cases are sporadic. If there is a known genetic mutation in the family, genetic counseling can provide more information about the risk.

Can fetal stem cells be harvested without destroying the embroy?

Male | 69

Yes so the process of extracting fetal stem cells from the embryo can destruct the embryo. This is because the cells are usually obtained from the inner cell mass of the embryo, which is a stage of development where the embryo is destroyed in the process. Alternative sources of stem cells, such as adult stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), have been developed to overcome some of the ethical concerns associated with using fetal stem cells.

Why is esr raised in multiple myeloma?

Female | 30

The disease process of multiple myeloma has several factors that cause elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate ESR. First of all, abnormal proteins produced by myeloma cells or rather immunoglobulins and their components may cause the increase in blood viscosity which leads to an increased ESR. Myeloma cells can cause inflammation and increase the secretion of some proteins that influence sedimentation rate. The effect of the disease on marrow function, and in particular its overproduction with plasma cells may also impact ESR levels. Elevated levels of the ESR are quite general in pricing an infection and can act as a predictor to determine how much myeloma-related irregularities is presently affecting one’s body. Monitoring of ESR regularly with other clinical parameters helps to evaluate disease progression and the patient’s response to treatment in multiple myeloma.
