Guest guest Posted October 7, 2000 Report Share Posted October 7, 2000 Judy, I had those symptoms for more than 10 years and believe it or not they dissappeared for the first time about 2-2.5 weeks ago when I began low-dose HGH injections. I used to believe these symptoms wee caused by the dysautonomia that some CFS patients have but know think mine may have been caused by an HGH deficiency. I never went a day before without some tingling or numbness before the HGH. Steve B.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2000 Report Share Posted October 7, 2000 Judy, Human growth hormone can be dangerous at high doses and may accelerate the growth of an existing cancer. It is recommended that anyone contemplating HGH use get a thorough cancer screening, the extent of which often varies by the age of the patient. Older patients have a higher probability of having an undiagnosed cancer and therefore require more extensive screening. The negative stories you have heard probably involve older people trying to turn back the functional clock by taking doses that put their HGH levels below that typical of a person their age. Many PWC's have HGH levels far below the norm for their age so there is little if any risk in intervention aimed at keeping their HGH levels equal to that of a healthy person their age. In fact it is more dangerous to let them continue to live with an HGH deficiency. HGH is essential for the proper function of many bodily processes. A long term deficiency for example will cause your internal organs to atrophy. It can cause premature menopause, depression.......(the list is too long to mention).

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2000 Report Share Posted October 7, 2000 Judy, PS: in answer to your final questions, the safe dose in my opinion is the dose that brings your HGH levels to that of a normal, healthy person your age. This dose must often be gradually worked up to because if your body has adjusted to a long-term deficiency, it must gradually re-adjust to the normal levels. How long must you take it? Probably as long as the deficiency exists which will most likely be until the underlying condition causing the deficiency is cured - possibly for the remainder of your life. Steve B.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2000 Report Share Posted October 7, 2000 Hi everyone, I got the results of my MRI and everything is fine, in other words I was told by the neurologist that probably my tingling and feeling of streaming or electricity in my arms and legs and occasionally in torso have to do with CFS and nothing more, he ruled out MS. So if any of you have had this problem, is there anything one can do? What supplements help? Vitamins etc. How long does it last? Many thanks Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 7, 2000 Report Share Posted October 7, 2000 Steve, what is HGH? Where do you get it? Is that Human Growth Hormone? I was told that it is dangerous, there is a group of alternative doctors here in Israel who were advertising it as an anti-aging thing and then there were lots of adverts in the paper about it and then a rebuttal with material about the groups in the USA who are using it and that it can cause cancer and lots of other miserable things, lots worse than " aging " or even CFS, so if that is what you meant, what dosages are safe? Where and for how long do you need the shots, etc.? Many thanks Judy Re: Re:tingling in limbs > > > > > > Hi everyone, > > I got the results of my MRI and everything is fine, in other words I was > > told by the neurologist that probably my tingling and feeling of streaming > > or electricity in my arms and legs and occasionally in torso have to do > with > > CFS and nothing more, he ruled out MS.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2000 Report Share Posted October 16, 2000 Dear Anyone have Andy Cutler's e-mail? I want to get the book about amalgam replacement, and I remember that he had an e-mail where one could find out where to send a check and order the book. Thanks Judy B.
