What got worse for some people
In their own words
“My knee is better. Not healed. Day to day it’s fine. Less inflammation.”
“I did a round (month) of bpc and thymosin for my shoulder with vaguely positive but possibly placebo results. Stopped because well , if its that regenerative I cant think of why it wouldnt be carcinogenic.”
“I feel like I'm back to being myself, moreso than I have been in years. Like 5 years. I'm not totally fixed, but I'd say >60% of the way there.”
“From experience, I do not believe bpc 157 is as safe as everyone says it is. I felt I was on the verge of a heart attack and even after stopping I was still fucked up for a few weeks.”
“BPC-157: This stuff is a miracle. I used it for about four weeks and gained sustained benefits.”
“By about day 3 I was feeling just in general a lot happier. I found myself talking a lot more and it felt good to do things.”
