The receipts behind Chapter 15

Four steroid shots in twenty months, each one shorter than the last. In Chapter 15 I lay out what a steroid injection buys and what it costs the joint, give you the negative platelet-rich plasma trials before the positive ones, and show why a regenerative injection is a seed that only grows in a repaired field.

The book makes the argument. This supplement shows the evidence, claim by claim: the study, who was in it, the number and where it sits in the paper, what it does not show — and the questions to bring to your own physician. It is written to be handed to your doctor.
