PRP Injections...has anyone tried them?

[Hungry Hungarian]

So i'm trying to get this 8 year quadricep tendonitis problem fixed. Cortisone shots, elcetric stim, taping, and rehab has not worked a bit and today my Ortho surgeon tells me about the PRP injection procedure. For any of you football fans, its what Hines Ward used to rehab his MCL within 2 weeks for the Super Bowl. After years of no squats and light ass leg presses, I'm willing to try anything.

Has anyone tried this yet on bad tendons and what are the results??!

I've read a little about it and it looks promising. Here is a web site with some info. It's not cheap, when I inquired it was about $1500-2000

Thanks bro...

There was a great video about the procedure on there. I've heard the prp can be hit or miss...hopefully I'm a hit!

If you do it, lets us know the results. I think it has the potential to help a lot of us.
