I’m 71 years old. Seen 4 drs who do stem cells. Both ways. But due to other health issues like chronic body inflammation they are afraid I’ll not be able to tolerate the stem cell treatment. That is confusing to me

Welcome to MayoClinicConnect @12061948 . You’ve asked about stem cell therapy for a rotator cuff problem. The doctors have mentioned that health issues and chronic body inflammation could cause you to not tolerate the therapy. What did the doctors say to you? If you are confused, maybe you can make a second appointment and ask for a clearer explanation. Take your spouse or a friend with you and take notes!
