Bellingham, WA

Having fibromyaglia and chonic fatigue syndrom, I don’t feel I am a candidate for knee replacement
I am reseaching orher options. PRP - Platelet rich plasma or stem cell therapy. Neither of these are covered by insurance. I am hobbling with lousy knees.
Almost completely immobile.

Stem Cell Therapy would be very expensive and you would need to be fit enough, for the Doctors to take Stem Cells out of your own body would certainly cause a Flare or a bad reaction.

You might have to consider a knee replacement surgery if you can afford Stem Cell Therapy then try it if you can.

I don’t think I’m a candidate for knee replacements either.I feel bad enough already. I’m going to research PRP. FIBRO IS HATING this snow and I am even having anxiety attacks.
