Hey O T F,
I tried prolo, it is suppose to cause the ligaments and tendons repair themselves by injecting sugar water into them. It did not help me and cost a couple of G’s. Of course the Doc that was doing the treatment said he had success in hundreds of other patients. That maybe true or not, however I also tried acupuncture with no success where others have had great success. So I’m not sure if it was just me or if it has any benefit. As far as your ADR, I wish you the best. I had two Prodiscs with things not working out for me; I’m in more pain now than before the surgeries. However lots have had great success and if I was in less pain now, I would tell you to go ahead. There are new things coming out every day, did you see the articles about stem cells? I think if I had it to do over I would have waited longer before “jumping into the fire”, but that’s the great thing about hindsight!
Your friend in pain,
