[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 111026, member: 15043"] When you say the HCG was "premixed", do you mean it already had the bacteriostatic water added to it, or was it just powder in a vial when you received it? Because if it already had the water added, I think we may have found the culprit. Having HCG premixed and mailed to you is a horrible idea. HCG is pretty fragile once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, and any agitation will cause bubbles to form. When bubbles form, the peptides are being damaged. To what degree? I'm honestly not sure. I just know that I baby my HCG once I reconstitute it, making sure I don't shake or swirl the liquid around too much. I can just imagine all the agitation that's going to occur from the pharmacy to your home. Also, HCG once reconstituted is heat sensitive. So if it wasn't shipped with an ice pack and specific shipping instructions to keep cold, the chances of being exposed to high heat are very high, especially on a mail truck, and especially coming from Florida in the middle of June! Would that mean it's completely useless once you receive it? Again, I'm not completely sure. Is it greatly degraded, I would say the chances of that being the case are extremely high. [/QUOTE]
