I had it done twice. the first one was amazing but only lasted about 1 week. the second one helped some, but did not take the pain away. At 5000.00 an injection I could not continue with these.

Awful. The doctor told us that this would cure him but it was only a temporary patch with horrible and unnecessary painful shot. Stopped it after one treatment.
