Has anyone had stem cell therapy for hip arthritis?

Hi,

I'm 53 year old female, diagnosed with hip dysplasia and mid to severe osteoarthritis a few years ago. Received adipose derived stem cell therapy for both hips about 9 weeks ago, but i haven't seen much improvement yet. I even feel more stiff and difficulty when walking than before. If anyone had stem cell therapy for hips and would have some experience to share, I really appreciate it, as I feel I'm going through this by myself, no one around me had done this before, and no one to talk to except for my doctor. I would like to know if it's normal to have more stiffness after several weeks post treatment. My whole legs feel stiff, not only hips. Thank you!
