After 3 months on Tirz and making sure I was past all the side effects, I decided to add in KPV for it's anti-inflammatory potential. I noticed improvements in inflammation almost immediately on Tirz and wanted to see if I could optimize it even further. I am doing .5(500mcg) first thing in the morning. I started to see results after about 5 days. Zero ISR or side effect so far.
Very noticeable:
- Easier to get out of bed without any warming up. I used to sit on the bed, gently rolling my ankles around, moving my knees a little etc before putting weight on my legs. Now I just jump up.
- Hip pain that used to wake me up if I rolled over on it while sleeping is gone.
- Capral tunnel/wrist pain was almost gone by the 20 day mark. I still get an occasional ping of pain if I lift something heavy.
- I am not as sore after softball or playing with the kids. (I up my dose to 1mg on days I have active plans. maybe 2x a week as needed)
- More energy, planted a garden, hauled bags of soil, bent over a lot and felt just a little sore the next day. This would have knocked me out for 2 or 3 days before.
Not sure if it is related
- Weight loss increased back up to 1.2 lb a week once I added in KPV with no change to Tirz dose. I had settled in at about .5 a pound a week.
- Stomach issues are much better especially acid reflux
- Hands seem to work better, less finger cramping and I can see my knuckles again. Less inflamation. (Not sure if this is the Tirz or KPV and I just didn't notice earlier)
- Easier to wake up, not lounging in bed as long.
I know we are all just trying to figure out what works for us with very little human trail science to go on so thought I would share.
