Jeannine - We almost died in the process if you recall. I feel that if I had been older and more feeble that I would not have pulled through after what happened to me. I didn't realize any of this until many, many months later when other doctors and scientists were asking why I had any reaction at all and why you and I became ill. This is not normal as we have since found out. The unfortunate part for us is that we were not treated by a doctor that had consulted with us. I seriously doubt if the doctor at the hospital that was doing treatment had any medical information on me at all. Mr. Nabavi was so new at the game (and yet I was told he had much experience) that there was no oxygen available for emergencies. We had to start this forum for lack of any information from him or his office staff. The only one giving us any help was Dr. Feinerman who had set up the protocols for SCB, fully expecting that they would be carried out. I feel that these protocols were not followed and that the cells may have been purchased from a lab that does not certify. This is absolutely nothing I would have known anything about in April, 2007. I did feel quite a bit better after overcoming my initial reactions, but I did not get off of O2 as almost virtually promised by SCB. I felt the need to continue seeking treatment and that is what I have done. In April, 2007, Mr. Nabavi enjoyed being about the only game in town if you needed to drive somewhere and lived in the U.S. or even if you flew but wanted to not have to fly to China or Germany, etc. People who are desperately ill do pay out big bucks when someone offers what SCB was offering. There are now much better clinics, in my opinion, easily reached by car or plane from the U.S. for all kinds of treatments and one can now even have autologous treatment in the U.S. Mr. Nabavi can no longer think he can do business without providing the same things that other reputable clinics do. They certify, they don't claim everyone is going to walk out a well person, they have good pre and post information available. They do not ignore patients when there is a problem. When I felt like I was dying and Mr. Nabavi did not even return my calls, it should have been the writing on the wall for me. However, I did recover, felt immensely better (maybe I got live cells, who knows?) and Dr. Feinerman was a great help to me so I went on with my life spreading the word about stem cell therapy. I am as enthusiastic today about it as I ever was. I think it holds so much promise for so many people and I will not be dampered by individuals like Mr. Nabavi.
