Anybody here have to deal with arthritis? What helped? Insurance isn't helpful and neither is popping twelve ibuprofens a day...
 
Did you try the 🔍 tool? There’s 3 pages of posts about arthritis.

It would help to know the specific type of arthritis - osteo, erosive osteo, rheumatoid, etc as they all have different inflammatory markers and may be less responsive to a peptide.

I have. Seems like some people have had good experience with tirz but all sorts of results are all over different threads... Would just like everybody's experience to be in one place and it seemed like this was the right subforum...

PsA is the one I'm most concerned about, but I'd love to hear everybody's experiences regardless if they're willing to share.
 
I have rheumatoid. Tirz helped in the beginning but hasn't helped lately. Idk if it's cause it's crazy cold where I am or what. I also tried tb & bpc, didn't see much difference in day to day relief but it did help overall soreness and stiffness after a workout.
 
I'm also curious... I have osteoarthritis in my knees. I've taken Synvisc which is a liquid membrane but it only lasted maybe a month... it was supposed to last 6 months.

Same for me, tried Synvisc, lasted about 4 months, switched to Euflexxa, that lasted about a year. Next step is Durolane but insurance can't seem to make up their mind on coverage grrr. My brother on the other hand has had very good luck with Synvisc, going on 4+ years with only 3 injections, he's running around the basketball court like the energizer bunny.
 
I'm surprised no one has mentioned KLOW

I have a family member with PsA. Humira worked until insurance stopped covering it this year. They are trying a generic replacement when the Humira stockpile runs out. As far as peptides, KLOW didn’t do much. We are considering options if the generic Humira replacement doesn’t work. Since they are of normal weight without other factors, GLP-1s aren’t on the table unless maybe a small dose of Tirz helps. I don’t want to introduce GI side effects.
 
I am also very interested in this. GLPs helped to a point, but that was maybe just less weight on the old knees

Glad it worked for your brother... at this point I would go for surgery if they could repair it somehow but that's not an option yet 🙁
 
I am researching KLOW and extra KVP for arthritis in my ankle. Just started a few months ago and it is helping.

I watched a video earlier today, claims GLP1 have a unique method to increase, or at least protect cartilage. Here's a link .
Gila monster venom, never in a million years would I have guessed that, very interesting. Honestly, never dove into the history, thanks for sharing this.

Amazing video! Thanks for sharing.

I had read the arthritic, pair-fed mice study when first looking into peptides; really made a believer out of me.

Yeah .. it just highlights the fact that all species are valuable and we shouldn't let them die out. You never know where a useful medicine is going to come from.
 
I'm using Cartalax with PEG-Mgf for a wrist issue. It's given me more relief than bpc/wolverine
