Thumbs Up PRP - Platelet Rich Plasma Treatment

My pain specialist/vascular physician is recommending PRP. Anyone familiar with or been treated using PRP? Did insurance cover. He states the goal is 80% improvement in pain. Know it's being used for some sports injuries but haven't had time to really investigate. If insurance won't cover would be moot.

Haven't participated in this forum for a while. Actually had good summer until the last 4 weeks. Got up, drove to work, and worked for couple of hours before pain really set in. Now back to pain upon getting up and getting nervous about the coming winter. I've made it 5 years with RSD since my accident and goal is 5 1/2 more years to retire. But it gets harder particularly as my memory seems to shrink daily. Hope everyone is having some peace in pain and doing okay.
