@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?

No haven’t talked to them. Read that working may prolong the healing time and was just wondering if others have had the same experience. Thursday was a very busy day and Thursday night had to take pain reliever to be able to fall asleep. Was supposed to go back last Saturday to see them for follow up shot of blood plasma but emergency at work and had to reschedule for next Saturday. I had the stem cell shots three weeks ago and I read that the soonest any relief might start is 6-8 weeks up to a year. Got fingers and toes crossed. QC kinetics.
