IGF + Prolotherapy + TB 500

[lokobreed]

Ok about 5 years ago I use to do competive BB - Fast Forward to now I have had 3 L shoulder Surgeries, 4 L elbow surgeries. This all stemmed from one shoulder surgery going bad and then so did the elbow surgery - it was suppose to be 2 surgeries and done. Needless to say I am in pain daily in the elbow and shoulder and really have never been able to get back to lifting.

I have been doing alot of research lately and have decided now is the time I have to start to get back HEALTHY as possible and no more surgical routes I refuse!

So I am for sure starting prolotherapy by the best in Chicago in March, I have ordered my IGF kit. I want to be sure that I am understanding everything about the injecting/mixing - my sister will be doing the injecting who is a registered nurse.

So I have purchase 1000 mcg of IGF 3 (1 mg) and have 3 ml of acetic acid.
So I understand corecctly:

I keep the IGF 3 in the vile it is in and mix 1-2 ml of the AA into the vile of IGF 3 - dribbling it down the side.

If I mix 1000 mcg of IGF 3 w/ 1ml of AA = 1000mcg/ml
If I mix 1000 mcg of IGF 3 w/ 2 ml of AA = 500mcg/ml

I have the needle/syringe of 29g, 1/2 in x 1 cc

Questions:
1) Once the IGF is mixed with AA do I re-cap the vile and store in the refrigerator? Or does this need to be placed/transfereed to a different vile?
2) How long is it good for if refrigerated?
3) Does it need to be mixed with NaCL before injecting? If so to do this do I withdraw the dose needed of the IGF3/AA mixture and then take that and then with the same needle pull in the NaCL?
4) Is my 1 cc needle big enough?

thank you all for your help- as I said I have read through nuemours pages and weeks and just want to place a forum where I can get my ramining questions answered.

I will be posting a log to all this
Thank you

Also I had a question about dosing of IGF...
Again I am taking this COMPLETELY for recovery
I have read numerous different methods and from what I have read I see that 20-40 mcg every day seems to assist in recovery, has anyone experienced benefits other doses or any recommendations?

Also I could not find a for sure answer but is there a recommendation of how long one should stay on IGF 3 before taking time off and for how long should you take time off from it? I have seen anywhere from 2 months on to 1 month off to 5 months on and 1 month off.

any help please

Not a lot of dudes use IGF, and even fewer can really attest to the gains or healing power of it versus HGH. I have tried IGF a bunch of times, but usually with HGH (I am doing a 6 month cycle right now). I am 46 years old and this stuff is supposedly helpful for recovery and building, though I cannot say I notice that much.

Right now I am doing a mix of IGF-LR3 100 mcg and IGF-DES 100mcg each 1x a day/ along with 3.5 IU of HGH. You make up the IGF1 in 0.5 % acetic acid, sterile filtered. I use 1 ml to constitute 1mg each of the LR3 and DES (2 mls total when combined), so 200 ul gives 100 mcg of each. you store this in the fridge and its good for a few weeks. Inject as is, no need to mix with anything
Good luck.
