Yes, had the series of 5 injections done April/May of 2018, after arthroscopic knee surgery in October of 2017. In my case it did not make a noticeable difference in pain management. Perhaps temporary 10% improvement, but I ended up opting for TKR in September of 2018. Now 5 months after the 2nd surgery I am 95% pain free and able to do 85% of what I did before either surgeries.

it's good to read about a TKR that someone is happy about and that turned out successful as all I read here is about the ones that went totally wrong so it makes me dread that time coming.I wish I could read more successful ones on this forum.

Just saw the reply by JK.... the brand name of my injections was Supartz, and yes, there were 5 shots spaced 7 to 10 days apart. 1st one super painful, next 3 easy, last one hurt again.
