Lira had her 12-week follow up exam from her stem cell/PRP treatment yesterday and we got some good news! Her knees are both stable now and not showing any signs of inflammation or thickening due to increased scar tissue. It looks like the treatment worked as hard as it was to keep her from hurting herself all over again. The only negative news is that her right hamstring is still atrophied a bit from lack of use and she is now 10# overweight from the general lack of activity and medication she’s been on.

Brighter days ahead, Lira at 11 weeks post procedure
The last four months have been very challenging between dealing with the winter COVID-19 surge, a pretty rough winter in Seattle and Lira’s knee injury. It is almost 4 months to the day that we got the diagnosis of a torn CCL in Lira’s right knee and had to seriously restrict her activity to try an heal it up.
