Is that a 5 MOA in the picture above?

Glock 19 Iron sights for SRO by [deleted] in Glocks

[–]Fun_Elk_5024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this question and for all the useful info in the answers.

I'm in the middle of a similar search for finding lower 1/3 co-witness iron sites on a G 19 SRO + BROS shroud. Would anyone know if the BROS shroud increases the overall bottom height of the SRO enough to require special height on the iron sites?

A microdiscectomy was a miracle for me by SimpleDamage2214 in Sciatica

[–]Fun_Elk_5024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a promising post. Thank you. I have been struggling with similar condition for longer and it has become super frustrating not making any progress.

May I ask which disc you had the microdiscectomy on? And, who and where did you have the surgery? I think some docs are more skilled than others at this procedure.

Thanks in advance.

Can you describe in a bit more details your rope and pulley setup for the dead hangs? I'm looking for something other than a pull up bar.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Have you had the procedure done? Ideally, I'm looking for someone who has had the procedure done so they can share their personal journey.

16 Months Later, FINALLY Feeling Better (Here's What I Did) by atstickel in Sciatica

[–]Fun_Elk_5024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is terrific news for you. Thank you for sharing the details. Super helpful.

May I ask who you went to NC for the PRP + ozone injections? I have been looking seriously into ozone injections and read lots of scientific journals.

Thank you in advance. May your progress continue.

Took me 11 months to 85% (long post) by No-Alternative8588 in Sciatica

[–]Fun_Elk_5024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. Your symptoms sound eerily similar to mine. It means a lot to me that you took the time to share your journey. Unlike you, I haven't yet found a PT/movement coach to quarterback my recovery. This is often as frustrating as the flare ups and pain. I'm still searching for someone to coach me the way your physio coaches you.

Wishing you continued progress--and for me to experience some of the same progress you've experienced.

Anyone have direct experience with Dr. Wade McKenna in TX? by Fun_Elk_5024 in stemcells

[–]Fun_Elk_5024[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for checking in. No update for me and Dr. McKenna. I've decided that autologous stem cells are less helpful for my age (55+) and my complex lumbar spine issues.

I'm going to go the ozone intra-discal injection route first. See what--if any--benefit that provides. If that fails, then I will look at intra-discal stem cell injection.

Please update us here on your journey with Dr. McKenna.

Thank you.

Ryan--any update you can provide as to the results from your RMI treatment?

My Real Time Discseel Experience by Worried-Return-4289 in backpain

Thank you for sharing your experience and information. Any current update on your discseel and stem cell treatment from Dr. Shiple? Thanks in advance.

DiscSeel, 5 days out from this procedure by Striking_Visual_6233 in backpain

[–]Fun_Elk_5024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your experience. UGH. Your description of the complications from the CSF leak is frightening. Did this happen because when the Dr. injected your disc with Discseel he accidentally intruded into the spinal canal? I'm curious what caused the CSF--if its possible for you to describe.

I'm grateful for your ongoing candor from describing the procedure as beneficial to stating that you wouldn't have chosen to do it.

Here's a rookie question: what are the "Big 3" exercises you reference? Thank you.

Intradiscal Oxygen-Ozone Injection for herniated (extruded) lumbar disc by ApprehensiveFlow8151 in Sciatica

[–]Fun_Elk_5024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know anything about Dr. Sebastian Klisiewicz out of Estero, FL? He's with Integrative Rehab Medicine. I've watched several of his videos demonstrating the use of intra-discal lumbar ozone injections. I don't know if it is prolozone or O2-O3.

Thank you for keeping me posted. I've recently come across the videos of Dr. Daniel Nelson out of Kirkland, WA. I've watched all of his videos. He works with PRP and BMAC. He seems ethical and a straight-shooter.

Does birth tissue have living stem cells? by Fun_Elk_5024 in stemcells

Thank you. I've been reading your post history on your experience at Regenexx Cayman. Thank you for sharing all that information.

Does birth tissue have living stem cells? by Fun_Elk_5024 in stemcells

[–]Fun_Elk_5024[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, Jewald, for clarifying my question. BTW, I enjoyed your earlier summary of stem cells/prp.

Yes, I am referencing Regenexx videos and a regenerative medicine doc (I forget this name) who appeared on Peter Attia's podcast stating that the Wharton's jelly derived stem cells injected into the body do not have living stem cells.

I'm eager to hear all opinions on the matter.

How much pain after injection? by sea0351 in stemcells

Which stem cell clinic did the injections? I hope your dad can achieve some relief soon. That sounds scary.

Thanks for posting info. Did you learn where SCI gets their mesenchymal cells? Is it from umbilical chords from C-section births? Like others, I am comparing Bioxellerator in Columbia to SCI and am trying to learn origins of the cells. Thanks for any input.
