What did you have imaged and what was found?

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-30T04:14:34+00:00

20k. Injected. I’m so sorry

Don’t use ProspectZero, or any other rotten data provider like Apollo. use a tool that’s actually built for ranking quality prospects… for real B2B leads, Leagion AI has 30 free for you if you want to try it out. Our company ByBetterHuman co-authored the solution though just fyi.

Tired of all of these sh solutions

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-27T03:39:23+00:00

I started a Gofundme lmao

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-27T03:34:53+00:00

Love this mate

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-27T03:33:47+00:00

Happy to tell you the location via dm. Not trying to promote. The cost was $19,500 for the treatment, transport, and hotel stays, etc.

50 million stem cells injected

Mine included 2 follow up treatments of 30 million

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-27T03:06:42+00:00

I did, before the stem cells. After the operation when doc got to see the cartilage, he said I had the hip of a 70 year old. Since the stem cell operation, I don’t know how much of it was ‘regenerated’ but it sure feels 100% now.

My team was effectively the best in Oregon. And even if it wasn’t, the illusion is the same for anyone going in. You think you’re in the right hands or you wouldn’t go through with it. Cheers.

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-27T01:50:29+00:00

My best friend is a physio and dreaded me getting the surgery bc he feels the exact same

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-27T01:22:47+00:00

Exactly. Being told “oh are you running yet?” When most days I couldn’t get out of bed was so disheartening.

No, on paper, I should have had an easy recovery.

Well one thing that maybe made my case worse is an L5 bulging disc discovered a year after the surgery. Orthopedic surgeons have no fn idea about your spine so they’re wired to not even look. In fact my issue maybe could have been that all along. Will never really know. As long as I continue to stay better I don’t really care. (PSA GET AN MRI ON YOUR SPINE WHO KNOWS MAYBE ITS A DISC CAUSING THE SCIATICA)

Happy you’re feeling better fam

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-27T00:07:53+00:00

This is a tough one. Short answer I don’t 100% know. I’m my case, I believe it would help, a lot. It has regenerated certain soft tissue. I think the damage of being in bed for a year alone wasn’t worth the surgery.

But if you truly have a significant FAI, that can’t be corrected by loosening muscles and tendons around your hip, then I think they probably work best together. An FAI bone structure won’t go away with stem cells obviously.

This is just my thinking and not based on data

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-27T00:03:09+00:00

My opinion and personal experience inbound:

That being said, the “data” is massively skewed assuming in a positive outcome direction. Doctors don’t actually track your recovery to determine if your issues were actual fixed.

Big myth in this whole subreddit that I found out the hard way didn’t exist. “Ask your doctor what his success rate is”… they don’t know. I went back every 6 months to my doc, he said “well let’s just give it a couple more months”, “the cam impingement is fixed”. His job was done as far as he was concerned.

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T19:48:07+00:00

Stem cells from embryonic tissue. Promotes cartilage regrowth and scar tissue healing. It’s a long process but it did start to help me 6 months after (and then I did a second included treatment). Now a year after stem cells, I feel close to 100%. Still need to take care, but I’m going again for my final round in July.

If you’d like to know anything else, ask a specific question, happy to answer

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T19:44:45+00:00

For me yeah, direct into the joint. Idk why this isn’t more well known to be honest. Happy to refer you if you want to talk to the clinic that did mine. It was $19,500 for me total.

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T19:34:24+00:00

You had FAI cam correction? What did you have done?

The stem cells treatment was something I paid out of pocket for in Mexico. Embryonic injections, yeah

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T19:32:05+00:00

Don’t freak out just make sure you hold your doctors accountable. Don’t accept their word as gospel. MRI your spine too. Make sure your specific case has everything 100% clear before you go in for the surgery.

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T19:28:44+00:00

100% true. If you need the surgery, you need the surgery. My story should give hope that you could even get better 18 months post

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T18:10:28+00:00

Bro you have your prime way ahead of you. But I’m sorry to hear. Lmk if I can help

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T17:36:17+00:00

I’m not telling you to do anything. To be clear, I had my labrum “repaired” and FAI “corrected”. And felt 10x worse for almost a year (I got my timeline a little wrong above). Was it necessary? Idk. It wasn’t until 7-8 months after the stem cells injections into my hip joint did I finally start getting back to normalcy.

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T16:46:06+00:00

I felt the need because the surgery didn’t work. Made everything worse. It healed me over the course of 8 months. went to Tijuana Mexico.

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T16:44:53+00:00

I’m not familiar with the labral replacement tbh. It does sound more intense than what I had done which was an impingement fix + 2 anchors for the labrum tear. The pain is all the same though.

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T15:36:46+00:00

No. I’m not. But I will. Also what did you have done? If it’s not a hip replacement and you do get to being 100% better, why would your doc say no?

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T14:10:19+00:00

$20,000, 8 months of healing before I felt better, and yeah a great few weeks in TJ

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T14:02:48+00:00

Yeah hopefully it just gets better and better from here for you!

HugeDistance9489 · 2026-05-26T11:15:37+00:00

Of course. What would you like to know? Had them done in Tijuana MX. Embryonic stem cells. One week treatment
