Hi there, I am 32 year old female, I have got meniscus tear in my right knee due to skydiving injury. I dont think its really really bad as in to have arthroscopy as it comes and goes, so I was thinking to try stemcell therapy. I live in the uk and I was wondering if anyone had it and how much it cost and more important if it really works?
Thank you

I had a failed arthroscopy and I'd be interested too as to how much and where?
Its my experience that arthroscopies work on younger people because there's less chance of them having arthritis.
Why don't you just have the arthroscopy operation, you'll be up and about in no time?

Have you been told how much of your meniscus needs cutting away??
Mine was fine till I went back to work then standing up all shift put me back to square one.
I walked out unaided after the op and there was hardly any swelling.
I don't want a knee replacement as unlike the hip I had done they don't seem to work
