Has anyone had Fibrin (Disceel) or PRP treatment for lumbar and sciatica pain?

Yes, I just had it a few months ago, and the procedure and post-op care has been less than ideal for me.

Search "My Painful Journey with Dr. Kevin Pauza's DiscSeel Procedure" on YT and you'll hear my experience on it

Hi, @nic12 - wondering if you decided to pursue the fibrin sealant or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment? If so, how did it go?

Hi, I have not tried this yet. I completed 8 months of PT and tried steroid injections and acupuncture. I am still experiencing a lot of pain from what I believe is a pinched sciatica nerve. We are in the processing of moving to Michigan so I will need to find someone local once we complete the move.
