I had both of these multiple times over 2 or 3 years. I couldn't walk and play golf, couldn't dance. Trouble sleeping with knee pain. Was taking 3 or 4 Aleve per day. Then i got a stem cell injection. It worked! Three years later, i’m still walking, dancing, sleeping well.n Pain reduced by 90%. Down side = not covered by medicare. Cost me $5000. (Cord stem cell seems to be the important factor. Advanced Regenerative Orthopedics) have heard it doesnt work for everyone.
