    are you concerned?

    Group testing would allay most of these concerns for me. It hasn't happened yet, but I think it's always possible for DNP or Dermorphin being mislabeled as a GLP. So avoiding a vendor with either on their pricelist would be something I would consider. But most vendors don't have them...

    WBS

    Yes, I would still consider ordering from WBS, at least now that their JYC group seems to be doing the right thing. I still prefer group buys, using Amino Annex for individual vials in-between. But now I want HGH, and Annex doesn't sell that.

    Thoughts on tesa?

    Overpriced vials at some random reseller using jotform, but a good stack: Since I'm cheap, I would get CJC instead of tesa or just use HGH.

    Alternative to HOSPIRA Bac

    At Amino Annex, cost is $57.50 shipped for five: Otherwise, $12 each plus $7.50 flat shipping, which is good if you want a couple vials of peptides anyway. AllThingsPeptides has saline BAC (30 mL) for $5.63. Saline BAC seems good for most peptides except possibly reta, but even that may be...

    WBS

    So JYC sent less than 2 mg of sema instead of T30?? The sema was even lower than 98 percent on purity. This is pretty much as bad as it gets, relatively close to zero peptides and mislabeled as tirz instead of sema. Might as well buy from anyone else, other than JYC and maybe even WBS?

    Filtering

    The crazy thing is that even doing recon and injections in a dirty bathroom would be safer than getting an injection from some med spas.

    NEWBIE QUESTION: FILTERING

    Purity (sequence integrity of the peptide) has nothing to do with sterility. And most of what is in the vial is not peptide but filler. Filtering after recon helps prevent infections and immune responses, including immune responses from aggregates (clumps of peptide molecules) and foreign...

    Filtering

    Actually, I love this question, even though it has been debated several times. Basically, it comes down to your risk tolerance. Most people don't filter. I do, as do some others here. For one thing, most people and vendors don't test for sterility. Many will argue that subq injections will...

    On max dose of sema

    When I paid $550 for my first vial of tirz, that changed a lot of priorities right there. So even at the start, I learned to throw away food despite being cheap, and to not buy any food that was too addictive. And these injections, as I said before, help to undo years of learned hopelessness...

    Well, that's interesting. Because most people who are wary enough to start at 1 mg are not going to get to 5 mg in eight weeks. Or so it seems when there are a number of Reddit people married to 2.5 mg of tirz for 20+ weeks.

    And Benadryl can help with sleep too, as can melatonin, marijuana gummies, and reading the terms of service for every company you deal with. One hack with melatonin is to take a low dose of 1 mg a few hours before bed. On the prescription side, trazodone is relatively easy to get from some...

    More proof that reta users are horrible people who only care about themselves and their drug of choice. No respect for authority in general or the FDA in particular. And they litter too. I've seen old reta vials and syringes on the sides of highways. In tirz we trust, until reta we must 🙏

    So should people start on 1.0 mg of tirz? I don't think so. There's always exceptions, but almost no one does that. The 2.5 mg dose is considered the lowest, initiation dose for tirz, with a current maximum of 15 mg that is six times that. I think part of the confusion is because people lose...
