Three weeks ago had 60 cc of bone marrow withdrawn from left hip to hopefully heal my knees some and quite a bit of pain the first week. Three weeks later the pain level is way down but not gone. Working in chemical plant as equipment operator so I am sitting down most the day but sill walking 4000 plus steps a day and working 6 and 7 days a week. I am hoping in a week or two at most the pain goes away.

@bustedthumb66, I moved your question about persistent pain following bone marrow aspiration from your hip in preparation for stem cell treatment for your knee to this related discussion in the Bones, Joints & Muscles support group.

I did this so you can connect with others who have had this procedure. When will you have the procedure to your knee? Did you contact your doctor to ask about the pain you're experiencing?
