Dr Shehata NK Cell treatment - Please share your success stories!

[Getintogear963]

Following 4 pregnancy failures and not yet lucky enough to be a Mum, I am now currently under the care of Dr Shehata (just started). When I am ready to ttc again, I have the steroids at ready (Prednisone). My Natural Killer cell results came back as "High" plus I also have Graves antibodies.

I know there have been many successes within Dr Shehata's clinic and he really is a highly rated expert in the NK vs Miscarriage field.

I would be so grateful to hear if you are one of Dr Shehata's success stories or know of anyone who has been successful under his care?

Thanks for sharing....

You'll find quite a few in the relevant section. Try the search facility as well.

Thanks Penguin (if I am use for short) . I have already searched and could not find anything recent (only posts put up around 5 years ago). Do you know the thread names and whether they are recent success stories?

(if I may use for short even) !

Hi lou I had three miscarriages before going to dr Shehata. I'm due on Sunday, so yes there are lots of success stories.

Women under dr s or following similar treatment have already gone through 17 threads on the conception board, this is the latest

My 4-year-old-son is a Shehata success story after 4 miscarriages.

The treatment was eye-wateringly expensive, but he's worth every penny and more!

Snoopysimaginaryfriend - thank you for coming back and sharing your story and massive congrats to you, that's so good to hear. Thanks also for the link... i have some reading to do but all worth it. Wishing you all the best for Sunday!... not long until your miracle bubba will be in your arms! Is this your first baby?

PinguForPresident - thank you too for sharing your success, Shehata is expensive but of course worth every penny if he gives you the dream. Wow 4 years old, that's a lovely age. Is your son your first?

Thanks again for sharing ladies

Hi all,

studies prove no link between natural killer cells and miscarriage, please read this official nhs guidance before embarking on any treatment.

There are many consultants out there who have been offering treatment since 1999 and within the 17year timeframe they have been unable to offer any evidence of its effectiveness. Any consultant offering treatment is at best misguided & at worst a charlatan.

To anyone considering seeing Mr Shehata... please think again . He is the kind of doctor that is capitalizing on our misery and desperation to find a solution to our repeated miscarriages. After paying several thousand pounds for appointments and test, I sent him a question about the medication by email and his assistants told me that in order for him to answer I have to pay 250 pounds . I told them I don’t live in the Uk and I can’t trav l there just for an appointment, and that I did not need a consultation it was just a clarification about medication he had already prescribed and sold to me. Still he refused to answer without payment , puttting me in a corner and now I am totally lost and not sure whether to continue the medicine or not, and this after he had told me that I could email him if I had any questions as I live overseas. I feel duped and tricked and taken advantage of. It’s not about the cost , I just can’t believe he would refuse to answer a patients concern unless he gets payment first . Especially as it is not a new question or issue it’s a simple clarification of what he had already prescribed . I cried for hours today feeling very lost and upset that I let myself be tricked by this unethical so called doctor that is making money of our misery and helplessness. He’s a crook . Stay away

I’m sorry to hear he couldn’t help you. I think calling him a crook is a little harsh. He has a lot of success stories. I am one of them.
