About Amy B. Scher

This all started with a teenie-eenie itty bitty tick. One I never met. One I never even knew existed until years after it bit me and I had been all around the U.S. to find out why my 25-year-old body was falling apart. My journey is now something I never imagined it would be. It started almost literally in my own backyard and now has found its way to New Delhi, India.

I've never been one to complain, give up, or wait around. So, I ventured off to find the truth. Now, over two years of pure confusion and 20-something doctors later, I realize I was sick long before I developed my first devastating symptom in July of 2005: the near complete loss of function in my limbs. I finally have an answer to a million suspicious symptoms big and small that I can now see clearly.

I am here to share my story. It's one of those that's really amazing and intriguing — if it's not yours. I can't promise it'll be free of drama or sadness, but it won't be all dark and gloom either. That's just not "me."

I live by a self-created motto: "When life kicks your ass, kick back." Side note: Or else, it might just kill you.

You'll be dumbfounded, entertained and who knows — maybe you'll learn something. I can assure you at the very least, you'll laugh, travel to India without leaving your seat, and probably become more aware than ever of how amazing the human body really is.

I hope you'll follow me on this journey. I'll do the hard work...you just have to keep up.

For a quick overview of my story, here's a primer to get you started.

How to contact the doctor in Delhi

Submitted by amybscher on Sun, 2007/12/09 - 02:37.

Hi Anonymous,

Thank you so much for your comment. Dr. Geeta Shroff is overwhelmed with inquires, so it may take some persistence and time to get a reply from her. But, her information is below:

Email: geetashroff@hotmail.com
Mobile Telephone: +91-9810061275
Dialing from the United States: 011-91-9810061275

I believe she prefers that someone first send via e-mail a detailed health history. After that, she will contact you by e-mail or you can call her.

Hope this helps and thanks again for the good wishes.

where in India is the Hospital

Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 2007/12/28 - 00:03.

I was referred to this blog by an older couple that knew you, where in India are you getting this treatment? So what kind of stem cells are being used.
What is the name of the hospital? I didn't know they did this there.
