Hi Professor, I had stem cell 15 years ago and Lemtrada 10 years ago. Im now 50, and pretty much every disability I had has been reversed- I could barely walk for over 6 years and now I run regularly 3km and walk 10km.

When I tell people I have done all this they tell me it’s impossible-which is why I wrote a book about my journey.

I’m disheartened that more people are not privy to the work being done by the likes of yourself in halting disability and effectively eliminating MS. This is MASSIVe news. The amount of lives saved and money saved over a lifetime of disability is huge!

However, it seems people are ignorant of these treatment options and the results they can offer.

I was a public figure for many years when at my worst and I have plenty of evidence to document my medical journey.

Hopefully when there are enough of us presenting as ‘cured’ and able to return to a normal life the powers that be will sit up and listen!

PS-my neuro himself was sceptical and found it very hard to define my recovery as any more than temporary luck- after 10 years of continuous perfect health and a strong and able body I’d say it’s a lot more than that- I’ve got my life back!

It is criminal that people are suffering for no reason.
