I have horrible elbow pain in which my doctor thinks it's tennis elbow.. he told me about this procedure and made it sound very good... I've been reading about it but I would love to get some info from you guys..I know athletes like Kobe Bryant and tiger woods did it with positive results...any adobe or info would help.thanks

I know it's pretty much a new procedure but I'm sure some have dabbled in it

I had this procedure done about 5 years ago ..... insurance wouldn't cover it and it cost about $500. I had tennis and golf elbow.... and numerous cortisone shots that did absolutely nothing.... this procedure fixed the problem!! It was incredibly painful to have the injection done. I was in arm sling for about a day.. but in the end I would do it again because it actually worked for me

Yes I wasn't out very long at all.... I believe he did one injection kinda moved the needle around a little..... the blood was taken from my other elbow....
