hi all,

I Had a foot op in December where they reattached a ligament and inserted 2 bolts and a small plate.Surgeon told me minimum 6 months post op to get “back to normal”.The swelling in the joint and discomfort is still pretty bad, so I have started the following:BPC157 @ 500mcg first thing in the morningTB500 – 5mg slip over 3 shots within a week.Pining both subq in my quad Is there any other peptide that you think would be beneficial to add to this to speed up recovery?Cheers

Better off using the tb500 at 1mg per week over 5 weeks. And bpc157 250mcg 2x day for 3 weeks.

And yes adding 2iu of gh 5 days on 2 days off for the 10 weeks.

Make sure your calories are at maintaince and 500mg metformin daily.

No mods had anything to say about his recommendations over a surgeon? No studies? I promise you the doc did his research before suggesting this.Can I please ask for peer reviewed studies for your recommendations? ("This doctor recommended it" is not a peer reviewed study)

Trying see where anyone recommend anything over a surgeon? He said 

"Surgeon told me minimum 6 months post op to get “back to normal”.The swelling in the joint and discomfort is still pretty bad, so I have started the following."

So he started these compounds on his own, i suggested how to use them better. Tb500 is better used over longer periods, bpc157 is better at reducing inflammation and doing repairs faster.

Peer reviewed studies on these compounds not approved for human use, or even in combination of one another?

 Hi Empire

thanks for your input, i have completed the TB500 and BPC and seen some improvement
i am however still struggling with what seems like inflammation in the actual bone/Joint that they drilled threw.

any general supplements that you could possibly recommend?

 I am still really considering a course of GH, but not sure what sort of results it may actually give me

So bpc157 is great for reducing inflammation, so sometime you can get benefit from running that longer than the tb500. The gh runs in the back ground and helps increase igf levels too.

The combination of the 3 is magical in its own right.

Its either that or harsher drugs like NSAIDs which can effect the kidneys.

So a good one to use is aleeve, its over the counter and its a new age nsaid, run 2 tablets twice a day for 7 days, and see how that helps the inflammation in that joint.

Hi all

I finally have some more budget and time to run peptides properly and am preparing to try CJC-1295 with DAC and Ipamorelin.

I weigh 78 kg.

My plan is as follows:
• CJC-1295 with DAC at 500 mcg once every 7 days
• Ipamorelin at 200 mcg per night

I usually have my last meal around 19:30, so the Ipamorelin will be taken at about 21:15 to 21:30, with the intention of being in bed by 22:00.

I used quite a bit of ipam/CJC. The half-life of ipamorelin is too short (around 2 hours) to dose only once per day. Peak HGH secretion is about 45 minutes after your shot and then after a few hours it's almost back to baseline levels. Upping the dose to try and make up for that does not work. Rather split it to 1x 100mg shot in the morning and 1x 100mg shot at night. It will be much more beneficial.

Thank you for the input, greatly appreciated - Before I I place my order i would like to check, I can either go for UPA CJC with DAC and their Ipamorelin, Or I can get a CJC without dac and Ipamorelin  pre mixed, think the brand is Vmed - which would you recommend

As we all know, im a big UPA advocate, and ive been using their peptides a lot as of recent, ghkcu and hybrid tb-500 and bpc for hair and skin, my doctor/business partner for the blood work business asked me who did my botox as the ridges in my big bald head have gone, and the fine lines and lax tissue around my eyes have literally shriveled.

So ive then for the last 4 weeks have been doing cjc 500mcg 2x a week with 5mg of mots c. and 250iu of ipam 2x a day, I am visually much leaner, the skin has drastically thinned interms of being leaner, this year ive delved much deeper into the world of peptides to see if it is hype/cruelty put out to the world by content creators, but I can tell you that it is pretty decent.

Ive implemented peptides with some of my clients like NAD+ and mots c together with slupp332 and body composition has changed, as well as full blown mood and energy, one of the recreational iron man athletes i work with, with sorting out his low iron and liver dysfunction has pretty much with the help of also melanotan 2 have boosted his red blood cell count and shaved minutes of his ride and run times. I think he last reported doing the same track for 4 weeks in a row and down an average of 2.5 minutes on previous times.

Now I know that its not ipam/cjc but ive had some good experience with them, not only personally, but also with clients.

Not saying vmed is shit, im just stating my usage with upa.

They will be coming out with a GLOW blend and a KLOW blend soon which will be excellent for the aesthetics market for people who is want smoother skin or suffering from massive tendinitis etc

@Empire thanks for the input

Are you using cjc with or without DAC?

I'm ready to go, just on the ropes still with regards to weekly shots with Dac or nightly 100mcg shot without DAC

IPA will be 100mcg morning and night

With dac, 100mcg 2x daily is a bit low for what you are looking to do.

Reading this thread makes me wish more headway could be made on stem cell research and its healing properties. I sure as hell would have loved to have that for my joint op.

How does your foot feel these days, bud?
