You  still have time to check out Prolotherapy


My son works at a large Naval Base and one of the workers told him  that if 
Prolotherapy fails and the person then proceeds with surgery the bones  
become brittle and can fracture. Prolotherapy has a high failure rate like  
30%. At my age 78 I am near the age where my DR would not do the surgery.  He 
had two other DR's agree that I was OK for this surgery. He requested that  
both DR's be present during the surgery. I have Asthma, sleep apnea and  
COPD. A lady who just had surgery with similar problems said they kept her  
airway open during the surgery by putting a hose down her throat. 
 
Dee this DR is of English decent and is a direct descendent of the General  
who conquered Scotland and deported my cousins to the colonies like 
America.
