Be cautious: Stem cells are a big research area in some parts of the world & do have promise for a wide variety of issues. To my knowledge there are no fda approved stem cell therapies for epilepsy.As a hot area of research there are some that use the idea of a new technology to fleece the public. Be cautious & investigate all claims. Foreign material injected into the body can result in reactions or death.
