Symptoms, and how stem cell therapy is used.
An overview to bring to your physician consultation—not a substitute for a diagnosis.
Symptoms
Crohn’s disease is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system targets intestinal cells.
This results in chronic inflammation, pain, and diarrhea which is disruptive to daily activities.
The cause is unknown and could be related to an unhealthy microbial environment and infections.
Medications and vaccines may also be implicated
The symptoms can be debilitating to live with and include diarrhea, urgency, fatigue, weak immune system, and joint pain.
In severe Crohn’s, fistulas may develop which are difficult to treat and result in repetitive surgical procedures and frequent antibiotics.
Other symptoms include lower abdominal cramping, bloating and nausea.
Patients have a difficult time gaining weight and get sick often due to a compromised immune system and chronic malnutrition.
A patient can tend to constipation or diarrhea, having 5-15 bowel movements per day.
Due to the urgency and frequent bowel movements, activities such as travel and work become challenging.
Crohn’s disease is progressive with no known cure.
Treatments
Conventional treatments include prednisone, biologics, and surgery.
Prednisone is normally prescribed on a short term basis during a flare, although some patients take it on a daily basis.
Prednisone suppresses the immune system which controls the symptoms, however this does not result in healing.
The long term use of steroids weakens the bones and connective tissue, and increases the frequency of colds and illnesses.
Indeed, prednisone is not a viable long term solution for any patient.
The biologics are chemotherapy type drugs which are taken for long term for the purpose of preventing flares.
Unfortunately, most patients are not aware that they are taking a chemotherapy type medication with long term health risks such as cancer.
Despite these treatments, most patients end up having to get partial or full colectomies.
Our clinic wants to prevent this outcome by offering alternatives to symptom control and surgery.
How can a Stem Cell IV help with Crohn’s Disease?
Stem cells are produced in our bodies to help heal and regenerate injured or unhealthy tissue.
They also secrete substances that decrease inflammation in the body.
In autoimmune conditions there is an imbalance in the inhibitory part of the immune system.
The immune system becomes overactive which causes ongoing inflammation.
Stem cells help to bring the immune system back into balance, resulting in less inflammation.
They are also anti-microbial which is important in treating IBD.
Stem cells facilitate the healing and replacement of injured tissue with strong healthy tissue.
Stem cells have the ability to migrate to areas of injury where they will begin secreting valuable proteins to start the repair process.
What results can I expect from a Stem Cell Infusion?
Many studies have been done in the last 20 years on the use of mesenchymal stem cells for Crohn’s patients which show positive results.
Our patients experience a decrease in symptoms within a few weeks after one stem cell infusion.
Dr. Jane Hendricks has treated IBD for 22 years and offers a 180 day regenerative program to her patients at no additional cost.
