Stem Cells from VesCell Help Another Patient With Congestive Heart Failure
Friday, February 13, 2009 - Stem Cell Guru
Robert Pleva, a 60 year old electrician from Florida is back to work full time after being treated with VesCell adult stem cells for his congestive heart failure. Pleva had been facing a heart transplant due to heart damage suffered in a 1999 heart attack.
Luckily, Pleva found Dr. Zannos Grekos of Regenocyte, a stem cell treatment company using VesCell stem cell technology from Theravitae to treat heart and peripheral artery disease patients with their own stem cells. In my last post, I posted a published stem cell study on Dr. Grekos' successfully treating heart disease patients in the Anti-Aging Medical News publication.
I am also happy to announce that Robert is back to work full time and in his words
“I feel so good and have so much energy,” he explains. “The best part about it is being able to do things I haven’t done in a long time.”
Pleva had a 28% ejection fraction before VesCell adult stem cells were implanted in June 2008. In January 2009, Pleva's ejection fraction had risen to 44% and as his wife says
“His blood pressure has come way down, so he’s been taken off many of his prescriptions,” she explains. “We’re just taking it one step at a time…and I’m getting my husband back.”
Let's hope Mr. Pleva stays healthy. As Valentine's Day is upon us for Mr. and Mrs. Pleva, I think it is appropriate that Pleva's heart seems to be healthy physically as well as mentally.
