DISH FOOLED ME AGAIN

[MikeD-C05]

Well, what makes me feel old isn't the 60-year-old back I got from working hard jobs all my life, Ironworker, Steeplejack, Truck driver, etc., or the torn rotator cuff that never healed correctly or the arthritis in my neck or the weak legs I have that make it harder and harder to climb stairs and ladders, or the 20 lbs I can't seem to lose. It's the effects of Covid twice and the permanent lung damage I got from it, or the RSV last year that seems to have triggered my heart into racing every time I exert myself (Heart moniter coming soon), it's the other effects of long Covid, like getting winded easily, but particularly, the noticeable memory loss that I should NOT be having at my age. Occasionally forgetting a name is one thing, but forgetting the street I lived on in Peoria 10 years ago, band names that I've listened to for years, etc., or something almost daily that's hitting me hard now.

Have you thought about taking Creatine Monohydrate 5grams ?

Creatine Monohydrate may help restore depleted celluar energy in Long Covid and ME/CFS ( Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). It bypasses the damaged mitochondria to rapidly regenerate the ATP, ( adenosine triphosphate production). ATP is the primary energy currency used by cells in your brain and muscles to perform daily functions, supporting physical and cognitive function. It helps with brain fog too.

I buy it in capsule form from Horbaach off of Amazon and I take 5 of them a day and drink WATER to activate the full effects. Like at least 8 to 10 glasses a day. It cost like $18.49 for one time purchase or $15.72 to subscribe to it. There is enough to take 5 capsules a day and that works out to 45 servings in a bottle, so over 45 days of use out of one bottle. I don't like using the big powder forms most body builders take , so capsules are great and very convenient.

I have been on it for 6 months and my muscles are popping and my head is clear. But I never caught Covid once. I have been vaccinated and boosted every year since 2021 in the fall along with my flu shot. I already got my RSV shot last year.

You can also watch videos on You Tube about Creatine 5g and it is full of good stuff about it. You really ought to try it and you have nothing to lose from trying it for a couple of months to see if you feel any better. It takes at least a month to start seeing gains and effects from it, because it takes that long to top off your muscles and your brain to see the full effect. Don't skip any days and be consistent each morning. If you decide to take it let me know if you see any improvement after those two months.

You are fortunate to have daughters. They can be emotional at times, but they'll be there for you. I know, that is a generalization, but I've seen it to be mostly true.

A daughter is a daughter all of her life, but a son is a son til he takes a wife.

We lost one our daughters to liver cancer in 2024, but I'm extremely grateful for the one I have left. She has quite literally been a life saver since my wife, her mother, died the day after last Christmas. Her strength is what has kept me going.

Sorry for your loss NYDutch. We lost a couple of children, one through miscarriage and our 6 month old son died too. I have talked before what we went through with that one. It is the worst thing a parent can go through. I am glad your other daughter has stepped up to be there for her parents.

I have a son and a daughter. He came first and he is always there for me! She came second and she, likewise, is always there as well. A little harder for her, she lives 590 miles away. He is a mile away. I was there for my children and they are paying that back.

You have posted previously, that you were a smoker most of your life, obviously that had caused some of your current health issues.

Possibly, except before Covid, I had a Pulmonary Test, and my lungs were at 2% blockage, about equal to having never smoked. A Sonogram found no evidence of plaque in my system, and in my Stress test, I never reached my target heart rate. 3 months later, Covid and difficulty catching my breath for months after, which spurred a CAT scan that discovered my lungs were covered with Pollups.

I also have 2 daughters. One is my best friend, and the other and I barely speak

Ironically, I do - 7.5 grams, plus Vitamin D3 and B12, Fish Oil, Turmeric, recently Nugenix, and my newly prescribed Staten.
I have been erratic with that, but for the last month I've been committed to taking them every day, thanks to the Staten

How long have you been taking it consistently on the Creatin? I am curious if you felt any better after a couple of months or not. The water intake is also key to really getting the full effect.

I also take Fish oil 2400mg , D3 2000mg and I take AlphaViril from HFL instead of Nugenix. My free Testosterone was 14 out of 18.1 possible. Total testosterone was 714 out of 916. That is high and I cycle my AlphaViril, Mon - Friday take twice a day and weekends off. I also take Arimidrol once a day to stop my testosterone from being converted to estradiol (estrogen) and CDG-Dim once a day to clear out any estradiol from being recirculated in my blood stream. This helps keep my testosterone levels higher.

Because if your testosterone goes up in number your estradiol does too unless you use an estrogen blocker. My level was 17.9 out of 46 possible which was a little low according to my doctor, so I stopped taking the CDG -Dim twice a day and went down to once a day. You do need some estradiol or estrogen for your sex drive, bones and joints, so like 20 - 30 is the sweet spot.

I'm running out of Nugenix this week so I'm ordering those others you mentioned. Now that I'm steadily taking the Creatine, I definitely feel like my memory is getting better. The times I lose a word or forget a name is getting highly reduced

Good, I hope it works for you like it has for me. I took from my early 50s till I was close to 55 playing with different supplements till I got it right.

The only thing I take that is extra and this is up to you. Is once a week I do take CLOMID or Clomiphene 25mg to trick my body into making more Testosterone. It is used for fertility for women trying to get pregnant and sometimes the doctor will subscribe it for men to also help make more testosterone which helps the man be fertile and the woman pregnant too. It tricks you body into making more of it's own Testosterone.

A great alternative to taking exogenous testosterone which you have to do for life. The side effect with this is your testicles shrink up and atrophy because your body will no longer make its own testosterone any more.

As opposed to CLOMID, where the only side effect I have seen is my testicles have gotten a bit bigger or feel fuller since it is working to keep the testosterone going. But my wife likes that side effect.

I use an online company from Canada to get my supply. www.faastpharmacy.com. Just type in CLOMID in the search bar and it will come up. You don't need a doctor prescription either. I buy enough for a year or 52 weeks. It isn't expensive and it does work. Clomid stays in your body for 5- 7 days, so every Saturday I take one tablet.

The AlphaViril from HFL helps keep my FREE Testosterone up and it is just good for the male body. Sam Robbins has been selling this product for over 20 years and I do feel great on it. Cycle off weekends. www.healthfitnesslongevity.com You can also subscribe to it on Amazon and it like $42.47 which is cheaper than through Sam's Website at $50.10. *Your area tax rate may be different than mine.

The Arimidrol and CDG-Dim is off of Amazon. Just make sure you get the SmNutrition Calcium D-glucarate - DIM. I subscribe to Arimidrol for $23.74 a month and the CDG-Dim is $13.45 a month.
