Nandralone and Joints (ruptured disk)

**freedomfighter06** · 09-16-2005, 07:42 AM

I got a ruptured disk about 2 years ago doing something I should not have been doing. (serves me right). I used Deca and the pain acutally subsided a bit. I was thinking about surgery, but I hear the pain is worse after the surgery and you cant do crap anymore. I hate painkillers and I am lookig into therpapy and 200mg of Deca to help ease the pain. I know the joint releif is from the water deca holds.

Anyone? I am in pain everyday and I am getting fed up with it!!!!!!!!!! Percocet made me itchy and angry.

help......

well I have not cycled yet, so I can't help you out with the Deca part, but I do have some experience with the disc part of it. I had my second back surgery for a ruptered disc ( l5- s1) last June. I tried to put both of my surgeries off as long as I could but eventually got to the point that I could hardly walk, let alone all SH#@ I was eating to try and get rid of the pain. Both times now they snowed me and I woke up pain free 30 min later. I asked My doc ( neuro surgeon, stay away from the ortho's) if I need to stop any of the activities that I did ( motocross, supercross, Kayaking etc...) and he said NO. The more active you are after surgery, the better off you are. I'm back to work, and have no restrictions. I am super aware of lifting positions and such now.

Kinda long but maybe this will help

I have a Dr. Apt to Monday morning with my Med Dr. I am going ot get some levels checked (blood work). I will see if he can refer me. Is it expensive? I have insurance, but they only pay 85%.

Thanks for the response
