I was sent the following article from this very site:
https://www.diabetes.co.uk/news/202...ial-treatment-option-for-type-1-diabetes.html
This approach to a cure for Type 1 looks very promising to me and my doctor. I sent him the linked research paper from the article. It’s very technical but it boils down to a way to use your own pancreatic stem cells to cure your diabetes. This is Type 1 only, I should emphasize. It’s early with this approach to a stem cell cure but it’s hard to predict how quickly the research might progress. The big deal here is that it should eliminate the need for immunosuppressant drugs currently used in beta cell transplants.
I’m not one to get too excited but this is an exciting development.
