Stem Cells for Joint Problems.

[Marplot]

A friend, one of my partners has just bought a stem cell business. He knew I have been having problems with osteoarthritis and knee problems, bone on bone. He offered, as a gift, that I could get stem cell work from his people.

Last Wednesday I went to their facility. The Doctor gave me a local anesthetic and she three injections the stem cells into my knee.

I also have osteoarthritis in my right wrist. It affected me so that I could not write with a pen and was affecting my trigger finger. They also injected two loads of stem cells into my right wrist.

My knee, five days later has gotten a little better, but my wrist has been miraculous! I can now write! Ready to get to the gun range and try out my trigger finger. Seems good enough!

I am slated to get more injections, three more about a month apart. Also adding in "Peptides."

Eager to eager to see what happens. Apparently stem cell therapy is not covered by insurance and fortunately I am getting the injections for free. Will keep you advised on my further results.

We had it done to one of our horses. It helped but when I had it done to my shoulder there was no improvement

I had it done for a dog and didn't see much difference. My mom is now considering it for, I believe, some neuropathy related issues. Not sure exactly, but it has been recommended to her. Best of luck with your treatments and please do let us know how it progresses.

Does insurance now accept this form of treatment?

Last Wednesday I went to their facility and I got three large injections into my knee. The Doctor gave me a local anesthetic and she three injections the stem cells into my knee.

I am definitely following this one. Arthritis and bone on bone in the knees. Hyaluronic injections help but wears off. I am not interested in any knee replacement surgery-I will fight that as long as I can. Please post updates as to how it is helping (or not helping). Thanks !!

My ex-wife had both knees replaced....
she says it was life changing. However with active people they only have a 15-20 year life span before needing redone

I have heard about this treatment for years, but nothing available to me. I tried to get into the MAYO Clinic and they have so many cases before me that they would not even put me on the list and I am a USMC Veteran.
Sure, hope this works great for Bill and will pray for him.

My neighbor's wife and my outfitter friend in the Yukon both had it done to their knees and made no significant difference fwiw.

It may be if there was insufficient cartlidge? Mine are about gone, but hoping. They are giving me three injections over a three month period and also something called peptides. Newest stuff. From umbilical cords.

I had my right knee done 22 years ago. I am quite active. But my surgeon said my right knee is in perfect condition. But my implant was the latest high tech at the time. Hoping it will go the distance!
