Adequan Log

[v-force700]

I am 45 with moderate arthritis in fingers, wrist, sholders, knees and lower back. I also suffer form tennis elbow, or as the guys at work call it (Carpel Jack Syndrome) "This may be the case" with 650mg test a week. It is kind of nice waking up with a tool so hard a cat can’t scratch it.

I have just started my 2nd 6 mo cycle of low dose GH, Any more then 2 ius and my wrist hurts like a MOFU. And am currently 6 weeks into a 14week Test only cycle .

I work second shift as a Flight Line Mechanic, so my workouts are in the morning. My regimen after waking is 2 Altrum 4 Ibuprofen two cups coffee and a Loratab 30 minutes before leaving for the Gym. And of course a Shot of No Xplode.

Keep in mind," this old bastard that; just an hour and half ago, hobbled to the bathroom like a 60 year old for his morning Pi** . Is now going to Gym and pumping iron with the best of them.

OK*** NOW to the adequan log

Yesterday I started adequan/canine @ 200mg 2 X week for 4 weeks.
My first injection was 2 cc in the upper Quad. Some burning and mild pain for an hour. Very slight soreness in the inj site this morning.
No sides as of yet. However, this morning I did not feel as stiff as usual.
"BUT!!, I MUST CAUTION ANYONE ONE WHO HAS THIN BLOOD NOT TO START ADEQUAN."

I am prone to small cuts and nicks in my line of work. Last night I had two small cuts on my fingers. I was bleeding like a stuck Hog and had a hell of a time getting it to stop.

I will report more as improvement or sides occur

3 days after 2nd shot.

"Nothing to report" for sides or improvement. I will do one more 200 mg dose and if nothing I will up to 400 mg.

My dog is doing awsome. He is a 110 lb Boxer @ almost 10 years he has very bad hips. A year ago he got so bad he couldn't hardly get up. I started him on RIMADYL twice a day and he got much better. But RIMADYL is only a cover and is very hard on the kidneys.
I started him on the adequan same time I started. @ 2 mg per/lb body wt. I stoped the RIMADYL and he is doing very good.

3rd shot Tuesday 6-5. Still No improvement for joint pain. I will up to 400mg next shot.

Last night I did my test shot. This time I HIT A VAIN. I registered, but before I got all in my lips started to tingle. A few seconds later my tongue, lips and upper extremities were on fire. MAN WHAT A RUSH. I started sweating profusely and my heart was racing. I went and set in front of a fan for a few minutes and relaxed. 5 minutes I was OK.

Don't you aspirate? You should, you know. Even the tiniest bubble of air can be troublesome in a vein.

[v-force700]

I always aspirate.

I just got 1 gram of adequan ordered. Good to see you keepin it updated.

so you are using 400mg now? i will be using 125mg every 4 days until its gone. If that does nothing, I will never use it again.

My last inj was 200 and I was going to up it if I felt no relief. As of last night, I can say it may be starting to give me some, "Minor relief". I will give it one more @ 200 and see if it get better. I will run the full 8 shot cycle regardless of Mg,s and see how it works overall.

If this don,t work:? I may try some Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate For spot treatment. I am still looking into it and doing some research.

Add to DMSO and apply to sore joint. Works like Cortisone.

It sure is nice being on a fourm where most are older. I posted on the main forum about getting in a vein, just to show we can't be too careful. And this Smart A** Kid showes his A**.

Vforce, is your adequan clear and seemingly water based? I will post pics whn eable to but I was wondering. I am used to shooting oils so when I saw this I was curious.

Yes. Adequan is clear and water based. I use a 1/2" 27 gauge . I hit the upper quad where it V's . About 4"-5" below the hipbone. It is relatively painless, compared to any oil based juice.

I am on adequan as well and it is water based. I suppose it COULD be oil based but I have enver heard of that.

OK... I did my last inj yesterday. For my last one I did 300mg just for future ref. I got up this morning after hauling 20+ wheelbarrow loads of gravel yesterday and felt excellent.

Overall, it worked OK and helped me get through this cycle. When I started, I was stuck on my bench to low weight W/Os. Because of shoulder pain. And any exercise involving my lower back was very limited.
It completely removed all pain in lower back. And helped shoulders to a point, I was able to add 50 lbs to my bench with limited pain in the shoulders.
It did nothing for my elbow. I am sure after 4 shots of cortisone it is FUBR. Most likely a torn or detached tendon. SURGERY is my next step.
I will finish this cycle and take a 6 mo. break from lifting. I will continue my GH and see about the Surgery.
When I come back, I will start another run with adequan @ 300mg.

I hope this helps any, who want to try adequan and, good luck to all!!
