Aggressive chemotherapy followed by a stem cell transplant can halt the progression of multiple sclerosis, a small study has suggested. The research, published in The Lancet, looked at 24 patients aged between 18 and 50 from three hospitals in Canada. Alex Normandin is himself a doctor who was diagnosed with MS. He told Paddy O'Connell how the trial treatment worked. (Photo: Alex Normandin Credit: Alex Normandin)
