Hello everyone!
Still a newbie, I’m considering looking into some other peptides but I’m not entirely sure where to start, because I have some pretty unique challenges.
All I’m on right now is Tirz, been on it since August, lost 50 lbs and I’m at my goal weight, so I’m moving to maintenance dosing.
My health issues:
Ehlers Danlos syndrome (a collagen disorder that affects all the connective tissue in my body. Because the collagen is faulty at a genetic level, unsure if anything collagen related would help, but would consider being a guinea pig)
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (related to EDS, an autonomic nervous system condition that basically means my body can’t handle being upright. This is disabling for me, means walking long distances and cardio are difficult to impossible)
Long QT syndrome (exact same symptoms as POTS, except it can kill me and certain meds exacerbate it)
PCOS (probably the reason tirz helped so much, mostly symptom free related to this one right now)
So yeah, with all of that, the main things I’d love to address are fatigue, brain fog, and maybe something that helps build muscle to protect my joints since my collagen doesn’t want to do its job. I do have full body joint pain but I don’t really anticipate that getting better.
Because I know someone will ask, I do have the MTHFR gene mutation and take methylated B vitamins as well as vitamin D, levels look good right now.
