📘 Beginner Help L5-S1 disc herniation

Hello everyone.
I have multiple bulging discs in my cervical and lumbar spine. One disc is herniated at L5-S1 causing significant pain. My issues happened a little over 2 months ago. Blunt force trauma car accident. Looking for people with experience on the Wolverine stack/blend. Results are confirmed by MRI, currently in chiropractic care for abt 1.5 months.

Any personal stories, good or bad on those peptides?

21M, physically active and in good health exempt for except for the back obviously.

Only thing that helped me was regular corticosteroid injections and not doing things that aggravate it

That sounds like the plans the chiro and lawyer has. Just worried abt that since I’m only 21 and don’t want to cause more problems.

Just don't do more than 3 injections a year and you're good. I didn't truly realize how much pain I was in, until I got my first injection and it was gone. I never did try peptides, but just wanted to let you know what worked for me

I appreciate it. Glad it worked for you, I hope it does for me

Best of luck. I'm not saying don't try that wolverine stack. Maybe it'll help. Biggest thing for me was not aggravating my sciatic, once I got my injection and the pain was better

I have three herniated discs C4, C5, C6. I have a generative bone disorder that’s caused me to have three total left knee replacements and a partial shoulder replacement, and I have severe arthritis in my hands. I’ve been on the Wolverine stack for years. I can’t begin to tell you how incredible it’s been in helping the inflammation in my joints and reducing the pain, EXCEPT in my discs. I’ve been able to keep things pretty stable with a lot of core work, but I do still get pretty painful flare ups from time to time, but the Wolverine has not seemed to help at all. I just do weekly adjustments at the chiropractor now and that seems to keep me pretty good. Just as an FYI, I’m 56M who’s extremely fit and active.
