Hello everyone,
I am relatively new to the group and to peptides I have a lot of questions, but will limit this post to 2 - unrelated Qs
Thank you all for taking the time to share your expertise.
1/
I am hoping to get some insight to determine if using PPS with chronic low back pain will be helpful in one of my patients.
Recent L/S MRI shows diffuse mild central and foraminal stenosis, and at L4-5 there is a posterior ridge spur/complex with severe
central stenosis and severe bilateral degenerative neural foraminal stenosis. She has limited funds, but would
be willing to move forward with this may help. I assume she is looking at a procedure of some sort - so is there any value in
trying the Pentosan?
2/ Nitric oxide -
I have a few patients that I have not been able to improve NO levels ( using HumanN test strips). I have used the typical
products like Neo40, Vascanox, along with addressing oral microbiome and oral hygiene products, addressing HCY/ methylation pathways which are also
hard to optimize in some but not all of these patients .. I understand that there may be some underlying issue as to why the NO production is suppressed
but I have one 60 yr old male who is generally healthy, coming to me for optimization and prevention. He has Erectile Dysfunction
that is not responding to numerous meds/ interventions. I see the connection between the low NO and ED.. His ADMA is normal, and
does not have anything that would suggest a chronic infection ( although now that I am writing this, I should check for COVID antibodies).
I just started him on niacin BPC and KPV... seems aggressive for an otherwise healthy male, so what am I missing?
Thank you all again!
