I wanted to mention something that is peculiar to me with THYMALIN. I did end up ordering some, BUT started at 500mg/day because I forgot that is what I ordered thinking it was TA1. CFS brain. I'm on day 4 or 5 and definitely having reactions. I had them on day 1 but didn't realize what I'd done and thought maybe it was allergies or I was legit coming down with a virus. My typical run with a virus is swollen glands and general malaise. I'm also having headaches. Tried to relieve via CE which normally helps but it's only worse. I'm sleeping 12-13 hours a night and still just generally tired. I don't feel bad, but I just want to sleep. I watched a video from Tremblay on Thymalin. He mentions the importance of taking TA1 with it for healing and repair. I'm not sure if my Thymus is suppressed or an over-achiever. I'm assuming suppressed since I catch EVERYthing going around so perhaps it's doing what it's supposed to now. I should probably go down a tad in my dosage though so I can function a bit more.

where did you get your NAD+ injections? a compound pharmacy or did your personal doc prescribe it? thx

PeptideSciences. Personal doc suggested but he was using TailorMade until they under. He contacted me to see where I was getting mine. I do love PeptideSci but they aren't the lowest cost.

I see, sorry it didn't work for you. I purchased some NAD+ powder and bought some syringe filters so I could make my own injections, but it just amped me up and couldn't sleep so I only tried it once.

where did u order it from?

 

[mitoMAN]

for NAD+ you can try alive by science without additives the pure powder, bacterial filter it and shoot it.
Or raw powder from China.

Wow, this is super interesting. How often do you do it? and how big dose etc? And how does it make you feel

 

[mitoMAN]

300mg each night. It gives chest tightness and breathing difficulties similar to a fast IV Drip.
I dont notice much benefit honestly

What i do notice benefit from is NADH however. 10 minutes after injection i get great energy boost.

Do they carry vasoactive intestinal peptide

Have just found this tonight https://www.limitlesslifenootropics.com/shop/vip-10mg/ - it was from a reddit recommendation, so no idea if it's ok/legit/scam etc. So please check to be safe/sure.

Even so I thought I would post, nobody on PR seems to have had a good reaction or any reaction to VIP though, I have been researching tonight.

Did anyone find Thymosin Alpha helped with inflammation? I know the research papers say it does, just wondered if it is. I've had to discontinue valtrex for awhile as the inflammation in my body got pretty bad. Intend to titrate up again when I replenish my stocks! But my gut, joints, eyes and muscles/body just sort of hurt or are not happy. Knees are incredibly stiff. Ordered some alpha-1 in the hopes it might immune modulate to my benefit as I had an ebv reactivation while I was using the ozone/airnergy device Kinetic Oxygen 6. Which is a real shame as all my brainfog disappeared using it and I went up about 2 levels on the energy score. Physical benefits were less pronounced but looking back they were still really good.

Be interested to know if anyone is still on alpha-1 as well long term.

A bit , but nothing dramatic

 

[bensmith]

I just started using it, bot sure what to make of it yet.

 

[godlovesatrier]

How long you been taking it ben? Did you have a bad reaction to one of the peptides or maybe I misread a reply.

Thanks.

@godlovesatrier first dose made me extremely nauseous for day and had weird brain stuff. A couple weeks later dose 2 helped a bunch right after administration. Tolerance went up a lot and dose 3 had to be higher. This was 3 or 4 days after dose 2. I get a pretty clear picture with drugs somewhat fast unless its like famvir or whatever. Ta1 seems to just be all over the place.

Heres a video of water coming out of my mouth from puslint extreme nausea.

My god that's a nasty reaction! I really hope I don't have that reaction. Looks very unpleasant.

Yes. I am still on it long term, but I take it less frequently. I take it 3x/week (MWF) and I have gone several weeks without it because I'm lazy or needed a break from needles. I don't notice anything when I take breaks from it nor do I notice anything when I restart it (well except maybe once I did).

And Thymosins Alpha and Beta helped me with inflammation tremendously! I was bedbound with extreme malaise, irritibility, shot temper, extreme brain fog, and it lifted all those symptoms of neuroinflammation to a large degree.

 

[godlovesatrier]

I took Valtrex for about 3 weeks at about 1g a day and have had a bad reaction to it. Had to come off it because it was making me depressed and I had terrible dizziness that was making work difficult. I intend to try it again when I've recovered but currently have bad muscle fatigue in my legs, generally unwell, low appetite and what feels like high inflammation, joints ache, slight muscle ache. Could be a good sign but the valtrex felt a bit aggressive, maybe my kidneys didn't like it...or my immune system couldn't deal with it. Who knows.

Interesting on the alpha and beta for inflammation. I'm hopeful it will help. Thanks junkcrap.

 

[godlovesatrier]

Well just took my first dose! (Thymosin alpha 1) Subq. I'll let you all know how I get on.

Out of interest one guy said the peptides are super fragile and if you don't reconstitute very slowly when adding bacto water or drawing out of the vial they will deform. Anyone got any thoughts or ideas on that? Seems very easy to destroy the peptides if that's true. There seems to be a Canadian site that sells it reconstituted which looks pretty neat.

 

[godlovesatrier]

First dose didn't go that well. Felt great for 45 minutes, then my cells started to do this thing where they slowly crash. By the time late evening rolled around I was feeling very dizzy and disorientated. Slept badly and muscles very fatigued thismorning. In spite of this I am going to try a much lower dose and see how I respond, hopeful I can gradually work up to the recommended dose.

Interesting! You might wanna get your experience listed in @Hip's List of ME/CFS Recovery and Improvement Stories.
