Reading your site for the first time tonight.

Congratulations on newsy pages....very interesting for a newcomer.

When browsing today, I found a centre in Germany now using one's own
stem cells to tackle type 1 diabetes (as well as many other
diseases) at a cost of £6000 - £9000 approx. Anyone know if this treatment
is available in the UK?

i doubt it we T2's are 2nd class citizens as far the PCT'S are concerned.
