想跟大家说一下，我昨晚因为在私信里分享了这个论坛链接而被Reddit封号了。所以，我没法回复那边的消息了。想到大家可能以为我在故意不理他们，我就觉得很抱歉。
真是好心没好报啊，对吧？
总之，好好享受这个精彩的论坛吧……我很高兴有这样一个地方

我有个挺有意思的故事……算是打个比方吧。我住在县里一个发展迅速的新兴社区，现在才十年。简单来说，县里最近在附近建一个新楼盘，要听取居民的环境影响评估意见。结果我的一些邻居就拉着其他邻居一起去，抱怨交通拥堵、安全隐患、濒危野生动物流离失所等等。
我在这个论坛上也感受到了类似的情况。一大批新居民似乎要搬过来，而那些当初和他们一样搬过来的老居民，对这种变化感到忐忑不安。
我之前在Reddit上也因为讨论肽类药物被暂时封禁过。不过，这里大部分人都很好，我相信大家都能找到自己的位置，就像我们这些新邻居一样，慢慢适应新的生活。
所以，作为一个和你一样的新来者，欢迎你！

Thank you for this, and I totally get why the OGs would be concerned. But these newbies have been paying through the nose every month, only to now be facing a major dilemma. Compounded and name brand were all they knew, and now they're about to be stuck. I couldn't leave them like that, knowing what I know. Our healthcare system sucks....and I say that as a healthcare worker who can't afford her out of pocket copays. I hope I didn't cause too much of a ruckus...I just think everyone deserves to explore every option possible in this game that is Big Pharma.brentm said:

You didn't find /u/pontarae/ on Reddit I take it? His account eventually got rugged on Reddit, but while he was on there he shared his sheets for source info.
Pontarae is also @dionysos on here who maintains a Google sheet on sources. Visit his profile here and you'll find some interesting source information sheets for both state-side suppliers and .cn suppliers.
Ohhhh....that makes sense!! Yes, I often refer to his spreadsheet...I have it saved on my phone! Small world 
Thanks for that info!

On reddit, I was buying from Arctic and Skye. Thanks to his info in the spreadsheet, I felt better about purchaing from these sites.
I think I paid over 300 dollars for 30mg of Tirz from Skye. I paid 240 for 10 vials of 30mg Tirz from an overseas supplier. One other vendor (Tuk) I thin I paid 330 for 10 vials @30mg per.
So while I think Skye is doing a fine job, the markup is incredible.
Then by orders of magnitude, I'm also paying 500 bucks a month for 3 months of a subscription from a telemedicine provider (currently on Sema with them). I have one more month in my contract and then I'm cancelling.
So each handler of your product adds around 10x to the price. And when you're anchored at name brand prices, it all seems like a better deal.
Yeah, I understand that they have to make a profit. I have a handful of favorite US vendors that I check on daily for sales. Was able to get 4 vials of 5mg (my current weekly dosage) for $100, bc they discontinued selling 5s.
I pay for telehealth, too. But it's also my HRT provider, so that one is a necessary evil, lol.

I have no regrets. And just like anything you have to pay your tuition.amynurse said:
Once you start exploring these overseas options, you'll find it's not just peptides they sell overseas. So who knows, maybe you'll be able to take over your HRT provider?
Omg, that would be AWESOME!! Down the rabbit hole I go.....brentm said:
Welcome to the newbies! We were all new at some point and needed guidance. But understand that you also have to put in the work and follow the bread crumbs.
This site was created by Zip, and I found it by is his subtle profile on Reddit. He didn’t post it on the forum or direct message me the link. And honestly you can’t do that. While this peptide community is a helpful community, you can’t trust that everyone who shows up is who they say they are. Some are snakes in disguise who want to stop our access.
So please be discreet and discerning in whom and how you share information. Fight club rules…

FWIW, I only mentioned for them to Google this forum (via PM), no link was shared. Tried to be as discreet as possible. I love this forum, and would never want to put it at risk in any way. But if noone would have helped me find y'all, I'm not sure I would have ever stumbled upon you. And I would have missed out.
If I'm feeling helpful on Reddit (which is rare), I point them toward the Peptide Source subreddit, which has their own off-site forum, on which there are mentions of this forum. That's how I found my way here, and I think that's one of the safer directions to point people. You're linking a legit Reddit sub, plus then they still have to do some digging.
Just pointing people directly here by name, link or not, is the wrong move, IMO.

I appreciate your input. Unfortunately, I can't undo what is already done.MiniatureSnail said:
Don’t worry about it. As a nurse it’s your nature to want to help people. I feel for people paying enormous amounts of money for their meds, I really do. But I just can’t trust that people are all genuine, so I’ve had to learn myself to keep tighter control on what I share. But please don’t worry about it.amynurse said:I appreciate your input.

One word of caution there - unlike GLP1 agonists, testosterone is a scheduled substance. My personal risk tolerance has me sticking with my telehealth provider for TRT.amynurse said:
I'm not prescribed trt, just estradiol/progesterone. Not sure if those can be sourced or not. Paying a telehealth company $150 every 8-12 weeks just for a script.jestintime said:
He updates his spreadsheets frequently with info shared by many sources so always go for the latest copy which is linked on his signature.amynurse said:Ohhhh....that makes sense!! Yes, I often refer to his spreadsheet...I have it saved on my phone! Small world
