Just back from my initial consultation. I am a candidate for either PRP or stem cell therapy. The Dr. told me we all have stem cells throughout our bodies and the PRP tells them to start doing their job again and with the stem cell treatment they now reccomend PRP shortly after treatment ,like a month later so as to give the implanted stem cells a better chance of success. I'm going to do the PRP only for a couple of reasons One is cost and the other is that I know a fellow that had it done about 3 years ago and he is fine to this day. One of my concerns was what options would be available in the future if this doesn't work. Turns out that if PRP doesn't work I could still go for stem cell therapy or knee replacement
