Forgive me, I meant the thread with Ozphysician regarding stem cells and facets. Really good stuff.
Thank you again for the insight on stem cells. I will definitely look into this further. I meet with the first neurosurgeon on Friday to just get an idea of what my options are. Hopefully my facets are in good shape but my end plates look rough. No modic signal just wavy. Not sure if endplate degeneration disqualifies me from ADR.
