HCG - another update

It's been about a month now since my doc started me on HGC shots for pain and I can say that I have felt amazing compared to before. I cried when I had to come off my gabapentin due to side effect (bad tremors) bc it was the only med that helped my pain. I've been off gabapentin for 4 weeks and on HCG the same amount of time and I feel really good

just for info...... my HCG is purchased through a compound pharmacy and with shipping and all it's $ 72 for a 5cc bottle.. my doses are .5cc 3 times a week... I have had no weight loss...but a lot of energy and significantly reduced pain.

So just an option to consider if your desperate like I was... xoxo... it's the best thing I've done for myself in a while and I'm sooo very much hoping I will continue to feel this way....I'm back in the gym and have even gone running a few times a week. A month ago my legs tremored so bad sometimes It was hard to stand at times and I was constantly using Lidocain patches, heat and other meds for pain. Also used anti anexity meds b/c all the symptoms and pain were stressing me out. I have not used any of that in about 3 weeks now. I was very skeptical about giving myself a shot but it has not been bad, very much worth the results..
