i was 10 weeks into a cycle when i was hit by a truck who ran a red light. i now have a couple bulging disks and a herniated l4-l5 disk which is causing me great pain. i can't workout and i'm thinking of using lr3 igf-1 for the purpose of healing the disk injuries. need some opinions on whether this will work or not??
questions on igf-1 healing properties
- Thread starter s.norman
- Start date
i decided to give lr3 a shot since i already bought it for pct. i can't workout and the pain is great enough to warrant the use of vicadin which i don't want to be on long-term. my orthopedist referred me to a pain management dr for epidurals but i will wait a couple weeks to give lr3 a shot. i will be using 40ug ed for 4 weeks and will update this thread on my progress. i will inj. in lower back region.

It's hard to say whether or not it would help. I do know when I get joint pain that it goes away faster when I've used IGF. Though it might help you heal a bit faster, I doubt it would completely heal a bulged disk. Remember that IGF is already produced in the body for specific purposes, and you are just adding more to speed up a process that is already happening.
here's an update: i began using lr3 igf1 on thur. (20ug am/ 20ug pm) inj. in lower back. i have large herniation in l4-l5 causing severe stenosis-narrowing of the canal thru which the spinal nerve travels. prior to igf-1 use i had to miss work for 2 weeks, freeze my gym membership and limit time spent on my feet. i was in great pain (1 vicadin every 5 hrs), lack of appetite, and started to get depressed b/c quality of life was going down the toilet.
within a couple days of igf-1 my mood and appetite improved greatly and more than 5hrs would pass and i'd realize that i didn't need the vicadin. as of sat. and today i was on my feet a lot and i only took 1 pain pill today. its lookin good so far and i will continue to update this thread. i really think there is something to the healing aspects of igf-1/hgh!!

as of today(tues.) the pain continues to lessen and i only need 1 vicadin/day. however, i am having numbness and weakness in my left leg and if i bend my left knee, my leg will buckle b/c i have no power in it. i will see a neurologist/pain management specialist next week but i hope that the igf-1 will continue to heal the disk so that i won,t have the numbnessin my leg. it really sucks not being able to train!

I figured you'd heal faster. Sounds like you have some nerve trouble though. Keep us posted, and we all hope you get back in the gym soon.
lr3 igf1 update:i use mc's immense growth factor(always go w/ the best) and it has been 12 days now. i have no lower back pain, the pins n needles feeling in left leg is greatly diminished, and i can walk much better b/c i can bend the knee-the leg is stronger. the spinal nerve is probably not pinched as badly. i believe igf-1 has tremendous healing properties and i can't believe that i may be able to train in about a week or 2. a bone dr said that i could possibly need surgery but he would try epidurals 1st. i am excited about the progress i've made and i hope others can see this thread and benefit from lr3 igf1-its amazing stuff!!!

How much you taking?
i want to thank everyone for their support. i have more feeling in left leg and hardly any pain in lower back. i am hopeful in returning to the gym in 2-3 weeks. muscle has memory so i feel confident that i can return to old form. i am still using 20ug am/20ug pm and i have lost bodyfat despite mediocre eating habits.
lr3 igf1 update: i have no lower back pain even after being on my feet for hours. there is only slight pins n needles feeling in my left leg. my appetite is enormous and completely opposite to when i started igf-1. my waistline is smallest its been in a long time so fat loss is evident even though i am not working out and my diet has not been that great. it is slowly healing this injury
