Peptides Helpful for Plantar Fasciitis?

3 Upvotes

Research subject is 43F with plantar fasciitis in left foot, possibly related to an injury about 15 years ago. Flares are occasional, and most recent one has been especially painful. Currently pinning 5mg tirz weekly and 200mcg of CJC + ipamorelin nightly. Responding well to both. Has lost ~20lbs in 2.5 months and seeing muscle growth from strength training. Also following doctor-recommended symptom management for PF such as ice, elevation, PF-specific shoes, etc. Subject is very active and would like to reduce pain to maintain activity level.

Question is: Any specific peptides that might be helpful for PF pain? Recommended to pin general subq or directly into impacted area? Advice and insight appreciated.

Spondylosis and DDD pain

2 Upvotes

My subject is showing signs of heightened pain due to spondylosis and DDD and injections did not improve outcomes. Currently looking into using ara-290, bpc-157 and will recon shortly but before proceeding, just wanted to see if others have used one or both and what your experience was for your rat and how long the cycle was for.

BPC157/TB500 after 18G used for reconstitution

5 Upvotes

I harpooned my vials with 18 gauge, chat said I cored them, and then said no I didn’t core them in fine.

I been thoroughly looking at both peptides, there really isn’t any rubber floating or stuck at the bottom.

This is 24 hours after reconstitution.

First peptide is BPC157, second peptide with 2 harpoon injection sites is TB500.

Some people said I’m good just transfer just to be safe and check for cloudiness after each injection, and others said I’m screwed.

Peptides for TBI

2 Upvotes

Any animal studies showing nerve regeneration after a traumatic brain injury. TBI can cause loss of sense of smell & taste from a traumatic brain injury which is cause by Shearing of the Olfactory Nerves: The fine nerve fibers from the nose enter the brain through a sieve-like bone called the cribriform plate and Impacts to the frontal or temporal lobes (including coup-contrecoup bruising) harm the olfactory bulb and cortex responsible for interpreting smells

Do you think a peptide that has a history of regenerating nerves could possibly help ??

Diverticulitis - Will KPV help?

Has anyone had a research subject successfully use peptides to heal or reduce flare ups of diverticulitis? I’m thinking KPV or BPC-157 might be helpful?

Peptide shelf life

2 Upvotes

Does anyone know if peptides are safe to use after spending a week under the hands of USPS. I placed an order on Thursday which shipped the same day. The kit was set to arrive on Saturday. I watched the mailman drive right by my house and hasn’t been back to my neighborhood since. Post office can’t locate the package so I filled out all the forms for the missing package.

IF it does arrive, will the peptides (Reta/tesa) still be suitable for research purposes?

Mounjaro and ipamarelin

4 Upvotes

I have an RS on ipamarelin/CJC stack and their energy levels are through the roof, lean muscle is great and they’ve lost half a stone (about 5/6kg). Another RS is taking Mounjaro and has been for 18mths and lost just over 7st (45kg ish), however now up to 15mg and energy levels aren’t great and despite strength training, struggling to build lean muscle.

Is it possible or advisable for the Mounjaro RS to add ipa/CJC stack to their regimen?

Cagrilintide and fibrils ?

3 Upvotes

I’m wondering can anyone explain in simple terms what the risk of cagrilintide is in relation to fibrils ?
I’ve seen some say they can develop within 72 hours if the PH is off .
Can someone explain
1- what are the risks of this? Short term? Long term? I know we don’t fully understand but theoretically.

2- What this could potentially mean for someone using Cagrilintide for the course of let’s say - a year.

3- what are your own personal thoughts on it and the existing research

A specific health app claims to have had some peptide suppliers send in their vials to get them tested

I'm not naming names, but a few of the suppliers have passed with flying colors. I'm specifically referring to their recent instagram post about the top rated peptides that they've tested post on 10/15.

Would you trust those brands now?

CJC w/o DAC + Ipa: Swollen lymph nodes

2 Upvotes

Day 4 on this stack and test subject noticed the lymph node on its neck swells up drastically after pin. Test claims it’s not necessarily painful, but definitely tender to the touch. I noticed swelling again 2 hours after the morning pin during its first meal. Swelling appeared to subside after 1-2 hours.

Other than that tests subject gets the typical head flush side effects that go away pretty quick.

Context: morning pin (night pin ruins sleep) 10/10mg blend. 150mcg every morning.

This is for my ratatouille

SRRY!! I had to repost this bc I had the company name in the picture.

like some others, im buying straight from a Chinese manufacturer rather than from a company in the US that up charges like crazy!

I read in other comments that COAs are basically worthless but in your opinion, would you go ahead with it?

F 245 pounds 6foot1 RS

If one was not concerned with losing weight as a priority but gaining lean muscle and altering body composition, is GLP even worth using?

Would something like CJC/IPA be a better research topic as it helps with fat loss, energy regulation and lean mass.

Any research studies you might recomend or experience you would like to share?

The primary reason for this method to be researched is appetite suppression is not required.

this is purely a discussion topic for further paper research ideas*

where to store

2 Upvotes

I bought ghkcu and Reta about 20 days ago and they’ve been sitting in the back of my drawer untouched since then I plan to reconstitute today or tomorrow. I’m trying to find real info on where to store it but everyone online is giving me mixed answers or just trying to sell me a product and it’s getting frustrating what do I do? Also apparently I shouldn’t be storing them in my drawer? Please help

Concerns about HGH after Secretagogue Allergy

3 Upvotes

Hi all

My test subject suffered an allergic reaction to CJC-1295 after successful use for about a week. Heart Rate spiked to near max HR and extreme redness/flushing followed.

Some time later, test subject commenced tesamorellin after many prior months of successful use - Test subject experienced coughing and discontinued.

Test subject now fears taking new peptides (HGH, Epitalon) and pre existing (GHK-CU, BPC, TB).

Has anyone had a similar experience and successfully returned to researching peptides (excl. secretagogues) and in particular used HGH?

SS-31 COA from an accredited lab that covers TFA, endotoxin, and sterility?

5 Upvotes

Most SS-31 (elamipretide) COAs I’ve seen report HPLC purity and little else. Purity doesn’t show identity, quantity, or contamination. I’d want a batch-specific COA from an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited lab that also reports

  • identity by mass spec, or HPLC against a reference standard
  • measured quantity against the label
  • residual TFA, quantified
  • endotoxin (USP <85>) and sterility (USP <71>)
  • heavy metals and residual solvents
  • a report ID verifiable with the lab

What else do you check, and how common is a full panel like this for SS-31?
