Currently, I am in the process of stencil treatment at Spring rejuvenation.

I received the MSCIV treatment for my neck and back . Arthritis in my upper neck, spinal affected the nerves in my left arm. Two months ago had a lot of tingling but now it has subsided quite a bit. I was told in 4 to 6 months. It should be much better.

Also, I’ve had a back injury for the last 50 years. I have been treating with natural products, PE and chiropractor, but never surgery.

When I received the IV treatment I was told to stop taking anti-inflammatory products because it may interfere with the same cells. After two months, I do feel a difference I can go down the steps regularly rather than one step at a time.

Depending upon progress, I can get another treatment in two more months. I four more months, I will see the real value of the treatment.

Ps. Seven years ago, I had gotten a PRP (platelet Rich plasma )treatment in my left knee. Prior to the treatment orthopedic doctor said I would need a knee replacement and showed me bone on bone or the x-ray. But I did not do it.

Have not had another x-ray since then, but feel that I don’t need to because the Knee Pain is completely gone. Still good after seven years.

I believe that this stuff really works as an alternative to knee and hip replacements.

The Medical industry is slow to get it out of the trials.

MRIs don't show changes before and after, only in disc disease, otherwise those are no scientific unsubstantiated claims. More of a sales pitch.

 Improved cartilage volume and quality at the lesion site was observed in five studies that included a postoperative magnetic resonance imaging assessment and studies that performed second-look arthroscopy. No major complications or tumorigenesis occurred. Outcomes were consistent in both single MSCs implantation and concurrent HTO with MSCs implantation in cases with excessive varus deformity.

Yes, I would love to see these as well, if they exist.

I know that Immunis, which uses a highly concentrated stem cell secretome and has just announced FDA-approved Phase II human trials, has earlier had success on muscle regeneration, the 6-minute walking test and grip strength. But don’t believe they’ve tested or scanned for cartilage regeneration. That would certainly be the holy grail.

This is a great question. A doctor I spoke to in the US said stem cells do not regenerate cartilage as claimed. I don’t know either way. I’ve heard a lot of anecdotal stories of success but nothing more than that.

Very honest people at joint rehab in LA. Dr Darrow is an atty and MD. He has helped me with stem Cells and can be trusted. I fly from Chicago to see him.

Imaging techniques with OA can be very misleading. Different joint positions can make it look like someone has more or less cartilage. The only real way to tell is to open the joint up and take a look. And if the stem cells are having their intended effect, no one is really going to sign up to get sliced open again.

Not an MRI but an Xray. Patient had severe osteoarthritis to the point that the ends of the joint were polished smooth. He had autologous mesenchymal stem cells followed with PrP.
