PRT

Burke and I were at Dr. Kris's office Thursday.
Burke needed to grab his new GLP med and Dr. Kris did a little PRT on him.
PRT, or platelet recovery transfer, or something like that...

He drew blood from Burke.
He put it in a very fancy maching.
The platelets separated from the rest of the blood.
With ultrasound, Dr. Kris guided a VERY large needle into both shoulders and injected the platelets into his joints.
This is a very safe method for pain relief.
So far, he is feeling relief!!!!

PS
I sat in a very fancy massage chair while watching Burke have this done.
So, I basically had PRT, too: primo relief therapy!
