After knee replacement surgery

Instead of a knee replacement I opted for stem cell therapy and prp 2x. That was six weeks ago and I am pain free and with only a slight discomfort
when going down stairs. The first four days after the therapy required a cane to walk but after that no therapy was required...the total cost was $4,000.
To me it was well worth it.

i had my right knee replaced and it was not a happy experience, so i opted for stem cells. I was bone on bone and after 13 days i was pain free. Garden, play golf, only downsize was insurance does not cover it yet. I recently had stem cells for my L4 and L5 that was rubbing against a nerve. 4 weeks later, pain free. My goal is to avoid surgery.
@winning Great you are doing so well with stem cell treatments. Will you need further treatments in the future? If so, how long does this treatment last? Too bad it's not covered by insurance. Hopefully it will in the future.<br>@beatricefay<br><br>

Wonderful you are truly blessed. Can you be more specific on how damaged your knee was and where did you have the procedure done? I asked about this on my last knee surgery which was only a partial knee replacement but was told stem cell therapy would not work.
