Thanks Nelson. I saw some of those when searching.
Sometimes it takes as many as 3 shotsWell, after 2 separate visits to the dr. And 2 separate shots of cortisone, ice packs, changing the types of shoulder exercises, and 800mg ibuprofen I finally can begin to lift somewhat medium weight. It's like starting over to regain strength from lifting which I love.
AND NOW HAVE BURSITIS IN MY LEFT ELBOW. I can't catch a break. I've had 1 cortisone shot and not better. Ice packs...hear I come.
Also BPC157 did nothing for me. I injected twice a day for 2 vials...nothing.
Light exercise is likely therapeutic and necessary to get blood to the injury. I would add some DMSO for few weeks as well.Not exactly a joint problem. But I have a tendon or something in my elbow that hurts when I flex the arm and apply a little pressure. Got impatient after leaving it alone for 8 motnhs with little to no progress. Used a 5mg bottle from Fulmen pharma, spaced it up in frequent 100mcg subQ injections in the elbow over the course of 3 weeks.
Think I will try again, and maybe double the dose.
