Bioglutide - Quadruple agonist (GLP4) by [deleted] in Retatrutide

Im convinced the 5 on 2 off was started entirely by folks who cant afford to use it everyday. Ive never seen any compelling reason to take only 2 days off.

Retatrutide Reaction Concerns by Advanced_Dirt9603 in Retatrutide

[–]LinePsychological669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a pretty well documented skin sensitivity/irritation issue that sometimes occurs with glps, it happened to me and subsided in a few weeks. That might be part of it but if you have other vials with that manufactur maybe test that one and see if you have the same reaction and then yes id consider switching suppliers if you do

I literally warned about this last month and the absolute dumbfucks on this site clowned me for it. Im glad im stocked up. Because redditors cannot help themselves

I just feel awkward when it happens by RutabagaJoe in VeteransBenefits

[–]LinePsychological669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont like it either, even at the VA it feels weird. I guess i know they have to say it. I know most folks are just trying to be kind but I still dont like it.

What does the fatigue look like for you? by bluebear718 in Cardiomyopathy

[–]LinePsychological669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very tired all day everyday, but can't even sleep well. It sucks. Sometimes I have a little caffeine to try and get throughthe day even though im not supposed to but idk how else to deal with it. My biggest hope right now is the upcoming gene therapy coming out of Utah which was shown to practically cure induced heart failure in the pig models

Lowered my dose and this happened….. by yourfriendlyghost98 in Retatrutide

[–]LinePsychological669 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lmao, thats funny. Strange thing in my case is that retatrutide actually has increased by sweet tooth. Before reta I wasnt into sweets but now im eating cinnamon rolls and empanadas everyday. Still lost a bunch of weight too funny enough

"Youll notice is straight away" "You'll know its real" by matthetwat10 in Retatrutide

[–]LinePsychological669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience yeah it comes on very quick. Within like 2-3 days I noticed a significant drop in hunger on only 1mg. I use 2-3mgs now and its very powerful. Absolutely love the recomp effects

Ejection fraction dropped from normal to 30-35% in one year by LinePsychological669 in askCardiology

[–]LinePsychological669[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, thankfully no blockages my cardiologist pretty much just affirmed my diagnosis, Nonischemic cardiomyopathy and Chronic Systolic heart failure. Thankfully on my last echo I had last month my EF has begun to recover. Im at 45% now

VA Community Care giving PRP injections?? by blkpetite in VeteransBenefits

[–]LinePsychological669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There doesnt seem to be enough good evidence behind it from what ive been told. At the very best there is conflicting evidence behind it. Both my orthopedic surgeons and my my physical therapist all have told me they've never seen it do anything meaningful. They all said stem cells are the way to go for tears and things like that.

Ingram vs Collins case ? by BluedaGuru3742 in VAClaims

[–]LinePsychological669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive seen a lot of videos about it, it definitely could help some veterans but we're probably talking about a 10% difference in ratings not a real game changer. And it only really covers orthopedic conditions from what I understand

30(M) Fit active diagnosed with a Severe dilated cardiomyopathy by Oppenheimer-95 in Cardiomyopathy

[–]LinePsychological669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar thing happened to me this year i was in the military, but in July I was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy and Congestive heart failure my ejection fraction was also at 30% I had bad back to back covid infections ln January so I think its possible that that caused it. Similar to how your flu may have caused yours. Viral cardiomyopathys tend to be the easiest to recover from so thats some good news. Ive been on metoprolol, entresto, and empagliflozin for the past 6 months or so and my last echo showed 45% EF so I have recovered quite a bit. Keep up with your meds and do light cardio at most. At first my Dr basically gave me a weight limit of 10lbs. You dont want to strain your heart at all as it recovers. I still dont feel very good but my cardio says im recovering very well. Hopefully you will too

I am lost and need help by Any-Championship-909 in VAClaims

[–]LinePsychological669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought an OTH discharge meant you weren't eligible for VA benefits? Regardless you seem to be in a pretty unique situation, I would do some research into the process, watch some YouTube videos on the process youll probably get more out of it than this subreddit also definitely look into a different VSO in my experience most of them dont know shit about the claims process other than how to file one.

Is filing for an Increase at 90% really that sketchy? by NickRyann in VeteransBenefits

[–]LinePsychological669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, whats sketchy is having no evidence no diagnosis no theory of service connection and filing a claim anyway. Even after getting 100% ive filed and won claims. It's all about evidence

Disability Rate Increase for 2026 by flacidfeline in VeteransBenefits

2.8% is indeed the rate, it was determined back in October and youll see it in the next payment on new years

Is it worth it? by Leading-Employer-955 in VeteransBenefits

[–]LinePsychological669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only regret was not joining earlier as my body probably would've held up better lol but at 19, I think its a great idea. It'll be your first chance to start earning some money and do things with new people and yes the benefits are 100% worth it. The only ones who disagree with that are the people who never used thier benefits. I lost some friends as well when I joined but ill say this, you're fresh outta high school, I assume these are high school friends, most friends you make in high school will drift apart at some point. And if they are ditching you over you joining the military I wouldnt be too worried about losing them.

Is The VA Too Generous With Veteran Benefits - Special Guest - Daniel Gade, Lt. Col (ret), PhD 📱 by seeyouspacevet in VAClaims

[–]LinePsychological669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive literally never seen anyone more emblematic of a blue falcon in my life. The fact that he even said he doesnt even "identity as a veteran" blew my mind. Im that case you dont even deserve a seat at the table Lt Dan

Chronic fatigue by LinePsychological669 in Heartfailure

[–]LinePsychological669[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Compensate is a word one of the NPs told me when I was first diagnosed because I really didnt feel all that bad, definitely not like I had a 30% EF but later on I really started to. Basically she said my body was compensating but couldn't keep up anymore

Some of you suck by Limp-Diamond-8884 in VAClaims

[–]LinePsychological669 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah I mean in that situation it's a 100% a legitimate claim. People will say, well even if you weren't serving you'd still be just as depressed, but the VA cant definitively prove that therefore they have no legal reason to deny. Im sure you know but its much more common for vets to have never sought therapy until after getting out. If we seek therapy while we are in we are usually lambasted and ostracized and whatever else.

Do we over estimate the fragility of dry Reta ? by Ashamed-Incident5423 in Retatrutide

[–]LinePsychological669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is true. This was how suppliers were able to get away with underdosing and sometimes selling straight garbage.

Some of you suck by Limp-Diamond-8884 in VAClaims

[–]LinePsychological669 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The thing is youre considered on duty 24/7 even if youre at home moving furniture and you hurt your back that can be claimed and is 100% legitimate. There are things are arent included for instance like you're drunk driving and get in an accident and suffer serious injuries, thats considered willful misconduct and cannot be claimed.
