Yes, I had the script too. After getting with the medical director, they finally agreed to do ty therapeutic phlebotomy. In fact, they actually had a therapeutic phlebotomy form so this was something the blood bank does. So it's done and I almost passed out. The lady said I turned as white as...
I'm at my 2nd hospital and 2nd blood bank and still can't have my therapeutic phlebotomy done. Even at Ochsner. Is this a New Orleans issue? Can I bleed out a pint of blood myself at home? Unreal!!!!!
My hemaocrit is 49.8.
I don't have any other symptoms related to hypertension. I used to be in the 120/80 range before beginning TRT. And with that new study suggesting the lower the better, my doctor wants it to 110/70. I can't pinpoint any other reason for an increase in pressure other than...
I tried searching the archives but I'm very frustrated and discouraged at this time. I've been on TRT for 1 year now, 250mg T-cyp, injecting .50ml 2x a week. I also take anastrozole to keep the estrogen in check. I work out hard, using cardio & free weights, 3-4x a week yet my blood pressure...
Thanks Nelson. My insurance does cover Egrifta, it's getting my physician to write a script for it. I'm going to try again with my next visit. All of those labs are due to be completed at the end of the month. Just trying to make sure I'm prepared before my next visit with Defy and my local...
I've about decided to no longer refill my sermorelin prescription from Defy. At almost $250 a month, it's way too expensive for the results I'm seeing. I've been on it since the beginning of February and the results seem to have tapered off. The main intent of taking this was to help with my...
Does anyone know of the difference between DHEA and 7-Keto DHEA by Jarrow? Supposedly the 7-Keto DHEA doesn't have the side effects of regular DHEA. I'm thinking about starting it after my next labs with Defy. My DHEA was 374 on a scale of 31-701 on my latest labs. I want to see my current...
I've been on Sermoreline for about 4 months now and I'm very happy with the results I've seen so far. I just wish I could have afforded the higher dosage but what I'm using is working, just a bit slower.
Thanks for postiing this thread. My instructions were to put 75ml on bac water into mine. And oh my. I must not be using enough. I'm supposed to go to the 25 line on the insulin syringe and that is costing me $250 a month. It's working, but not fast enough.
Hi,
I need HCG to help counteract the shrinking of my testicles. I use Defy Medical and they will prescribe it but their pharmacy interprets the law of Louisiana to mean it is illegal to utilize a mail order pharmacy to deliver HCG to the state. Does anyone know if there is a pharmacy that...
I've only been on it 3 weeks now. I had a doctor appointment this morning and the scale reflected a 6 pound loss. My main goal is to help with my lipodystrophy. From what I've read, it's still too soon to see the other benefits such as increased muscle gain or better skin which would all be...
There are ways to limit your expenses like ordering your needles through an online medical supply company versus through the pharmacy. There is a thread on this site for that as well. Also, today was my birthday and I received an email from Defy giving me a $25 credit that I was able to apply...
I utilize Defy and have been very happy with them. The expense varies depending on if your appointments are with a nurse or the doctor. The first appointment is with the doctor and the follow ups are up to you if you want the nurse or the doctor. And because they don't file insurance, their...
Hi JSmitty,
Defy doesn't take insurance. I believe you can submit the claim on your own. However, you can still have your labs completed using your insurance as Defy will email you the lab order. I searched for 9+ years for local physician to treat my low T without any luck. My primary...
So today I received my Sermorelin in the mail and I was confused about how much to pull into the insulin syringe. I went to Defy's website to read about it and an online chat window popped up. A person named Matt was on the other end and clarified what 0.25 milliliter would be on the syringe...
My sermorelin arrives tomorrow and I'll have my first injection tomorrow night. I am confident this will help with my lipodystrophy. There are a couple of thread on the link Gene provided. I've heard nothing but good about it. It's not cheap but if it works it'll be worth it. It's for my...
I'm going with the pharmacy they us, APS Pharmacy. It will run $249 a month. I'm not going to quote the exact amount I'll be injecting yet until I receive the prescription.
I live in New Orleans and use Defy. I searched for over 9 years for a doctor to effectively treat my low T before discovering Dr. Saya. I would contact their office and speak with them about how remote practice works. I'm grateful for this as I had given up on finding any local physician to...
I haven't found one. I'll begin my Sermorelin treatment when it arrives next week. The good thing is once your levels are increased, the expense goes down as you'll only need maintenance doses, instead of daily doses, to maintain the level needed for your body. From what I have I have learned...
It took me over 9 years to find a doctor to effectively treat my low testosterone with proven treatment methods. Dr. Saya and his entire staff are experts in their field. I've been on my regime since August of 2014. I highly recommend Defy.
I've decided to follow my doctors advise and will begin Sermorelin. Is there anyone else on here using it? It's the option I've decided to go with in my fight against lipodystrophy as diet, exercise, and TRT alone haven't made that much of an impact.
I had my lab review this past week and my T-cyp dosage has been increased to 1x weekly injection of 1.0ml. If my levels are still not up to where Dr. Saya and I want them on day 7 ,with my next 90 day follow up, we'll look at injecting 2x a week to see if that helps maintain my testosterone...
Thank you all for your responses. It's encouraging to know and see that someone from Defy is on here as well. I discovered in 2005, while evacuated to Atlanta, that I suffered from low T. It took me 9 years to find someone to treat me for it. I couldn't find anyone in the New Orleans Metro...
I decided to add HCG to my regimen but the pharmacy that Defy Medical uses told me Louisiana won't allow pharmacies to ship HCG to addresses within our state. Has anyone else run into this problem?
