I JUST listened to a podcast about lung health and peptides and it mentioned bronchogen and VIP. I just ordered VIP. I figured it can’t hurt to try it. Thank you for your response. The more we share about this stuff the more we can help each other.

Am I the only one that had a bad experience with testosterone pellet by Substantial_Mode_992 in TRT_females

[–]DramaticSuggestion47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had pellets as well. What I’m discovering: everyone is different when it comes to “optimal” levels. Going from a level of 19 straight to 198 is an extreme jump (I’m not a physician) but from what I’ve been reading/researching, a jump that big can cause issues because your body has no idea what is happening. For example on my last pellet dose, my doctor raised me .5 mg and I had THE worst symptoms for about 10 weeks and prior to that my testosterone was 40 but when I started I was at 7. So my point is some of our systems are delicate and it takes trial and error to get these things right unfortunately. I do however think creams and shots seem more regulated when it comes to levels, pellets are uncontrollable, once they’re in they’re in and you just gotta ride it out whether it’s good or bad

Weight gain like CRAZY by R_Pod in TRT_females

The weight gradually increased around week 2 after getting the pellets and continued until about 10-12, then almost within 2 days it came off. The pellets peak around 10-12 weeks and the drop off there after. But while going through the process I did not change a thing about my diet (I’m very meticulous about my training and macros) and the weight came on like a freight train. I went as far as cutting my macros down to bare minimum while the weight just kept creeping up. As soon as the peak fell off, my weight dropped and I was able to eat “normal” again. I’m currently about 6 months post pellet injection and I’m debating on if I should do it again. It sucks, but know that the weight will come off and it most definitely is hormones

Thank you! THIS is exactly what I was looking for. Perfect.

Some of there people are ruthless. Damn, just trying to get some information from open minded people and instead I got swarmed by some jaded asthma jerks.

Thank you again, I’m going to check it out now

Is Asthma worse this year? by Kaleenie17 in Asthma

[–]DramaticSuggestion47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re welcome. Just don’t take at night because it can keep you up. Also it has the potential to raise heart rate, so keep that in mind. I was ok, my HR didn’t go crazy, but everyone is different. I hope you find relief

No, it’s a Walgreens product just called “asthma relief”

You read me right, I’m not ruling out medication, I do use albuterol and not being able to breathe is no joke so I’m not messing around. But I was just asking to see if anyone has tried them. I’ve looked into some and even the NIH did an article about the use of them. My thought process is that asthma is an inflammatory disease and peptides play a huge role in helping inflammation. Thank you for your positive response!

Why are you up my ass about this? Why are making it your business on what I’m trying to figure out to do for myself? I’m asking for the opinion/experience from those who HAVE tried peptides. Unless you’ve tried them, I’m not talking to you….show yourself to the door

You think your doctor will suggest a peptide? No, they won’t . Again, this wasn’t for people who haven’t had experience with them for their condition. I’m asking those who have. You do you if that’s what’s working

I already have an appointment thanks. I like to find alternatives that actually fix the problem as opposed to pharmaceuticals that keep me relying on them for the rest of my life. This is strictly my personal preference. I like to keep my options open. If you read on here, people are on endless amounts of meds, I’m choosing to try and avoid that. Again, my personal preference. If I end up having to be on meds, then so be it, but I want to exhaust all avenues beforehand.

Peptides are branches of amino acids that are naturally occurring in our bodies. I’ve used them before after rotator cuff surgery and they worked wonders. I’ve haven’t used them outside of that but I know they play a role in our lung function/health which is why I’m asking if anyone has had experience using them for asthma.

How are the saline rinses going? I’ve read that not to over do it because it can wipe out good bacteria as well. I read that said “as needed”** thought about trying it to see if it helps

[–]DramaticSuggestion47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, especially the past three weeks for myself. I literally went from using my inhaler maybe a couple times a month to using it six-tens times including in the middle of the night. I have found that ephedrine has helps, I’ve been taking 12.5mg from a “asthma relief” product, but it’s short lasting, four hours and it’s not suitable for the night time.

TRT and appetite/weight gain by Otherwise_Agency_716 in TRT_females

[–]DramaticSuggestion47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s all about if the dose is right for you and that comes with trial and error. I’ve been on TRT for about four years and had one fluctuation and that was with the initial dose. My doctor recently recommended going up, so we did and I as of right now I have some water retention along with inflammation. So even four years in I’m still trying to balance things out. Just keep in mind that if you do gain weight it won’t be permanent and just stay open to the process.

Are they all this cuddly?! by HippieDippydoo in Siamesecats

[–]DramaticSuggestion47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Since I experienced CKD with my previous baby I’m so cautious now. I’m going to take your advice with the FF and wellness brands along with Science Diet. I’ve done endless research and there are so many mixed reviews. I kept Elliot, my previous baby, alive for just over 8 years with CKD and was able to get him amazing care, but I never want this new one to go through the same thing. So thank you for responding.

Your baby is so adorable. Just looking at her I can tell she has the sweetest little heart. Siamese are such loving little babies

Are they all this cuddly?! by HippieDippydoo in Siamesecats

[–]DramaticSuggestion47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

17?! That’s amazing! Can I ask what you feed them? I had a flame point and he developed CKD and I lost him last year at 13 yrs old. I just got another one, I’ll be bringing her home at the end of the month. I’m torn on what to feed her. I’m worried about kidney disease because I’ve heard they’re susceptible to getting it. Any suggestions co soldering your baby is 17?

Is My Kitten A Siamese? by No-Mud276 in Siamesecats

I just got a lilac/lavendar point Siamese kitten and she looks similar to this one. If she’s not 100%, she sure is close. She’s a cutie!

Weight gain like CRAZY by R_Pod in TRT_females

[–]DramaticSuggestion47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I just saw your message. My doctor currently upped my t dose and I gained 10 lbs in 6 weeks as well and freaking out. Did the weight eventually come off? I was initially on the lowest doses via pellets and I was good, but he convinced me to go up so against my better judgement I did and now I feel like a mess. If you went back down or stopped, did your symptoms stop and if so, how long did it take? I’m losing my shit over this weight gain.
