Title: I am asking because I have Ankylosing Spondylitis and it is seriously reducing my quality of life. I have been considering to go for stem cell or similar (NK cell TR cell etc) treatment for 6 months now but am very apprehensive.<p>There is anecdotal evidence that my condition can be &quot;cured&quot; (at least for 3 years at a time) with stem cell treatment and there are some phase 1, 2 &amp; 3 studies out of China [1][2] (that aim) to back this up. That said I am also aware of the risks and don&#x27;t want to make a bad situation worse especially considering that I have reduced the conditions negative effects from an 8&#x2F;10 to 3&#x2F;10 using diet. Google is practically ineffective for research as it is polluted with companies offering treatment who are heavy on hype and light on evidence.<p>I&#x27;m curious to hear first or second hand experience of stem cell treatment for auto-immune conditions from the HN community. Please let us know about the condition, the treatment, the clinic and the outcome.<p>[1] https:&#x2F;&#x2F;sci-hub.tw&#x2F;10.3892&#x2F;etm.2017.4687
