      Aware mentioned on another board he put ghrp/mod129 3x/day at the equivalent of 10iu Gh a day, that is WAY more than i thought it would be
      I may have to try that route first

      How much of a saving is there between gh & peps? say for 5iu of gh vs the equivalent peps?

      I just picked up about 30 days of ghrp2 and grf129 for $70, (aware says this equates to about 10iu/day)
      33 days at 3iu/day is one kit, name brand $190/200 so depending on what your paying it may be much more than 1/3

      I am going to try both and compare, maybe i'll run a blog on here




      and back to the Knee,

      surgeon today said he doesn't think it is the meniscus, like the PT said, My doc had no idea what it was
      He thinks it is a damaged nerve (prepatellar neuroma)
      this is good in that it is not actual damage to the knee, it is the same as the only real treatment is to remove it surgically

      He shot it full of Novocaine and cortisone and said call me if that doesn't work

      did some online research and it seems a conclusion that cortisone doesn't work. so I'll give it week and go back.

      I found cortisone helped tremendously with my shoulder but did naff all for tennis elbow for some reason.....in saying that the shoulder shot was put in by a orthopedic specialist and the elbow shot by a GP who didn't inspire confidence by saying " hope we got the right bit".....

      cortisone just kills all the swelling.
      so if the swelling was causing rubbing or inflammation then it cant heal cause every time you move it you irritate it more
      If thats the case cortisone does wonders

      but if something is actually damaged then its worthless

      its just a hoop the insurance companies make you jump through becore they will pay for surgery

      doesn't hurt all the time but if moved at the right angle it hurts like crazy

      Sounds like a case of classic patellar tendonitis. I disagree with above. Don't think it sounds like a torn meniscus. And Don't have to have imaging to diagnose patellar tendonitis. In fact, it prob won't show up on an imaging study anyway. Try a Cho-Pat strap and rest. A cortisone injection can be helpful also. But without rest, you will cont to aggravate it. It can be a very frustrating and nagging injury to deal with unfortunately. keep us posted on how its going.
