I am just going to say I agree with you completely here and leave it at that. Drug companies are IMHO one of the main problems we have with healthcare in our country and until we change this integral part of our healthcare system we will never get it fixed.

No they aren't talking about injectable vitamin D. It's not infrequent to see doses at 50,000 units once a week at first to get the levels up of someone who it vitamin D deficient. Then once they are back in therapeutic range go to 50,000 units every 2 weeks. The IOM study was done very...

I don't think it has a great effect on collagen synthesis, nothing like HGH or IGF will. But it will definitely make you're tendons and joints feel better while on it due to the water. And the extra water while on may make you less likely to injure those tendons while on, but I doubt there are...

I'm with saudades - it really does help stretch the muscle fascia which is what keeps us from growing as much as our muscles want to.

Sounds like it might be a ganglion or tendonitis in that wrist. Did you have any kind of trauma to it before it started hurting? Either way there's not a real quick fix. If it's a ganglion cyst that you can feel you can smash it with a heavy book like a Bible pretty hard and try to bust it...

Does it hurt when you move your wrist only or does putting a finger on the spot and then moving your thumb up and down also hurt it? I disagree with overcompensation unless doing more things with that wrist caused you to injure that tendon. Also, alot of people develop cysts there called...

twitter is definitely for people on top of their game - I recently got back on facebook after being off for years and am nowhere near comitted enough to get twitter. However, I have yet to have anything useful come from being on facebook so it's more of a hobby for me. I just delete the updates...

No idea what's up with him but I hope he gets it back together sometime because the guy is hilarious.

If you lose your chiro insurance coverage you can try to find a D.O. physician that specializes in OMT which is what chiropractors do. They will take insurance and it covers treatments well - just something to try for when you run out of insurance but make sure that they have experience with it...

I don't know how much a doc charges to do it, but I am pretty sure it's covered by insurance however I bet they'll charge more than the $59. I have even seen some that don't centrifuge it down and just inject the blood into the area of tendinitis or tendinosis. The theory is that tendons and...

I agree with no cortisone shots and I don't know much about the aflutop so I can't speak for it. Have u ever thought about autologous blood injections. It's when a doc will take some blood out of your unaffected arm, spin it down to get platelet rich blood which will help heal tendons and...

Alright, forget that name now! It's fixed

Cant seem to post anywhere, pressed, mmx, g, or mike can someone contact me. I know o haven't been around for awhile but why the ban?

Well, the one good thing about them is it gives stupid ass people place to go instead of posting that shit over here.

My wife used to but it seems the more stressed our lives get the more she resents the time and money spent... Which sucks bc it was nice not having to hide anything about the lifestyle from her.

I'll see what I can find in a few books tonight or tomorrow and try to post some exercises up here. I know I used to use a shoulder horn to strengthen my rotator cuffs but haven't done that in years. The only 2 I can think of right now are when you lift a small db shoulder height then bend your...

I usually wear WM jeans (Levi's) or slacks for when I'm at work. I get my button up shirts and slacks at Dillards or JcPenny or wherever my wife buys them. I only have a few things I wear for when we go out but I like the Affliction and Split shirts and jeans from (I just blanked at the name of...

Hey norm, it's actually not a huge deal in a lot of medical fields. I have some Latin writing on my forearm and I have been working in hospitals for 3 months now and no one has said shit to me about it other than the occasional curious person asking about it...course I make up some smart ass...

I honestly don't see why they wouldn't. They have the funds, the access, and their paycheck depends on them looking a certain way. The one that sticks out in my mind is Reynolds and Stallone. And Dino sucks balls...BamBam all the way baby!!!!

the goblin gave it a hellava shot, but he can't hang, lol. I got past my boards, so things are a bit less stressful now and I'm having some more fun with them. Hopefully I can get back on here a couple of times/week
