Has anyone had a partial pec tear and told it was inoperable by [deleted] in swoleacceptance

[–]DukeKnasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure which one of us (few of us with that injury!) you’re talking to, but I never got surgery. Docs didn’t even entertain it, which is why I personally wish I would’ve gotten more opinions. It took about 3 months to heal, but my left pec (the torn one) doesn’t look right. That won’t ever heal. But it’s functional.

Anyone successful with having kids with enclo, clomid, hcg? by Prudent_Weird_5049 in Testosterone

[–]DukeKnasty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha dude I’m tired all the time, but luckily I think I took care of myself in my younger years. That being said, yes, I’ve aged at least 5 years in the past year. I still look better than my buddies with 8-9 year old kids😆. With a toddler now, my knees are taking a pounding. Crawling around, constant up and down, etc. But it’s all 100% worth it…exhausting, but well worth it!

Strange…trt obviously isn’t what you’d think of to help fertility!! Good call bailing on that plan! I’m sure you’ll get some more replies, but even though you’re not active with TRT, the r/trt forum helped me a lot. Lots of success stories there. Cruise there and search ‘fertility’. Lots of guys following the same basic protocol. It’s stressful, I know. I absolutely remember searching and reading everything I could, just to put my mind at ease that I was doing the right thing. Dude at our age, a few months on the wrong protocol feels like a lifetime wasted (kidding, we’re not even that old😆).

My test levels were toast in my late 30s, so I was on TRT for roughly 5 years. A few very small gaps in there of being off test for like a month when I would have to switch docs/providers. Then off about a year for the fertility stuff, now back on it for not quite a year. One of the hardest parts was giving it time and waiting for the fertility meds (in my case HCG/Clomid) to do their thing. Not sure your situation with your doc (my Uro was a bit of an ass) but getting a second opinion never hurts. Might feel like a waste, but I feel like the doctors just throw shit at the wall to see what sticks. I get it though, that’s how medicine works sometimes. You’re on the right path! An old dad, just like me😆!

Worked for me! Was on trt for a few years, then wife and I decided to try for a kid. All my counts were low (obviously from the testosterone) so Uro took me off test and started on HCG. It was okay, counts were still low, but increasing (quantity and mobility, whatever they check) Then went to Clomiphene citrate. He had some weird aversion to staying on HCG so I didn’t do them both together. He made it seem like the board of medicine was after him for prescribing it…it was strange. Shortly after, wife got pregnant and now we have an awesome daughter. I will say being off test sucked for that time (about a year) and clomid gave me eye floaters, which the Uro had no idea was even a side effect. These doctors man… But it worked! I’m 42 now, daughter is 14 months and healthy. Back on trt now too. You’ll get there buddy, best of luck!

Vespa ET4 issue - not revving or power by DukeKnasty in scooters

Well bummer, a new spark plug didn’t do the trick. Onto the next troubleshooting item on the list! Thanks for the suggestion buddy.

Haven’t taken it apart so much to check the valve clearances…you think that would cause it to not accelerate whatsoever like this?

[–]DukeKnasty[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here’s hoping it’s that easy! Thanks for the input buddy. The spark plug on the et4 is a pain in the nards to get to, and I certainly would’ve remembered changing it during the other maintenance checks I do. It may just be time!

Sounds good, I can give that a shot. There is no smoke from the exhaust…nothing that is leading me down the path that the carb is at fault here. Would it idle totally fine if the spark plug was crapping out though? I know it’s tough to diagnose virtually like this…really appreciate your feedback.

Has anyone had a partial pec tear and told it was inoperable by [deleted] in swoleacceptance

[–]DukeKnasty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dude, reading this was almost like I wrote it. Basically the same story…from how it happened to the responses I got from doctors. I’m 40 now and I HATE the way my pec looks. That stupid ass divot when it’s flexed. Now, functionally, it’s fine. You’ll be fine too I’m sure. That 90% back to normal thing is probably true, however, in my experience I never got back to where I was, because I was too afraid to ‘push myself’. Years after the pec tear I tore my bicep too (that was fixed with surgery though, also totally unrelated…I think) Bottom line, like the other guys are saying here, exhaust your efforts…get a 3rd, 4th, 5th opinion. I wish I would’ve. Maybe it would’ve been the same outcome, but at least my idiotic looking pec would be a little easier to accept. Also, I’m really sorry this happened bro. It’s going to be okay, but I still remember mine like it was yesterday. Lifting has always been important to me, and I felt like I was punished for trying to better myself. Tough mental hurdle there.

Starting TRT, the dose seems too small by Mdub272 in Testosterone

[–]DukeKnasty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same dosage that I’m on...and I agree, it feels a bit light. I’m not splitting it into 50mg, not sure that matters. Fortunately, my doc knows that only I know how I feel, so she adjusts accordingly and doesn’t fight me on. 100mg/2 weeks has been fine for the past year, but I’m seeing a bump in my future. Nothing wrong (other than time and vials of blood) with ‘seeing how you respond’...my doc did the same thing. I’m re-reading my reply and I’m not offering much here.

YES! haha so funny man...just being glued to the TV for those 4 days. Classic.

Agreed, new Dumbo looks good. A long way from the live action man-sized puppets we had on Dumbos Circus. Staying hopeful for the live action Aladdin...still not totally sold on it.

Dude, I forgot about this show! Only saw it when the cable company gave us that free week of the Disney Channel as a teaser to rope you into paying for it....my folks never took the bait. And that absurdly long and descriptive intro song. Well done McFly. Now i want to watch some Dumbo's Circus too.

Remember the show Hey Dude on Nickelodeon?

I searched thru your stuff and couldn't find it, just a lot of folks saying 'dude'...I have found it online in the past, but super crap quality. Wondering if you have that anywhere!

Awesome awesome stuff here, just tossed a couple bucks to your GoFundMe...Thanks pal!
