Modafinil update Got a email because Nelson posted on this thread. Been on Modafinil now for three years (about)- take it every workday but not on weekends ( unless a real busy day ahead). Still works well and I have not developed any tolerance. 400mg in the AM. I have fallen asleep...

TRT, Iron, Ferritin My experience : I have read on this because I have experienced it. This is kinda a layman's perspective on my readings in PubMed and other sources. Might not all be totally correct, but works for me. Frequent blood donations do tank your Ferritin level. The rbc is...

As always, the HARBINGER OF DOOM speaks.... Just a cautionary tale. Back in the 90's I was in my early 40's. I had gone a while without sex and met someone. We started having sex and I noticed my orgasim was way different....it was like many mini-orgasms. It was okay and in some ways I...

A question for the group: I have been trying to research and not finding an answer to this question : TRT is supposed to increase muscle protein synthesis (mps) and aid in muscle building. Statins reduce cholesterol. Does taking statins with TRT reduce the positive muscle ? Cholesterol is...

Losartan and Olmesartan I started on Olmesartan about three years ago. No digestive issues. One thing I noted and yet no Physicians take note of it: After I started on Olmesartan, I started rapid weight gain. 42 lbs in two years. I am now on lorsartan, which I switched over to for...

Low Iron and still able to donate..... I had extremely low iron stores after a few years of donating. My primary doctor diagnosed me with iron deficient anemia - and I felt horrible. I was referred to a hematologist and the iron levels came back up. Eventually, the hematologist indicated...

Studies seem to suggest 50-70% Reading the study it appeared to me that a finding presented indicated top quartile is not as longevity promoting as that directly under it ( third highest 50-75%). Also seemed to indicate a level around 500-600 as reducing all cause mortality in untreated...

Question : TRT level Cypionate use, bodyfat reduction and muscle maintainence.... I do not have any issues with muscle wasting and I have never attempted to get a Physician to prescribe nandrolone or any other 'anabolic steroid." I believe Nelson is saying 100 mg of Testosterone per week is a...

I take clonidine tablets three times a day, benicar with trimatrine, one 20 mg lasix and a 20mg amlopidine and still, often my bp is 140/80 ( sometimes lower and sometimes higher). The Clonidine is the most effective medication. I was first 'diagnosed' with high bp at age 13, and told to lose...

I have been on Benicar HCT for several years and without blood draws, my hematocrit would be way over normal.

Issues with Peptides I have issues with Peptides. I have looked at the products. The not for human consumption label bothers me to be honest. Even if it is just legalize. So many feed back loops and unknown metabolic actions that remain in question. Now, I am not a cancer-phobe in...

950 Total T I started to notice body composition changes when my total T was around 950. My T was 950 or so with around .75 cc test per week ( about 150mg T I believe), two arimidex at .5mg and two HCG injections. I am sure that for a 24 hour window or so after that dose my T was higher. At...

Taking Modafinil for about Five Months I have sleep apnea. I have had it for over a decade, perhaps longer. Consistent daytime fatigue. Did not know about the disorder until 2007. Went on CPAP on 2012, but still had persistent daytime fatigue and sleepiness. About five months ago, I went...
