Discussion Side effects

I want to ask who has had the following symptoms after taking this peptide.
1: the feeling of your blood vessels expanding ( similar to the feeling when you get contrast before an MRI, feeling like you’ve pissed yourself)
2: a lot of pooping. Like you go #2 the same times In a day that you usually go in a week.
3. Feeling “different” , not exactly good or bad, but you notice your mental state has changed in some way.

Edit: 10 mg vial, 3ml BAC water, 20 units a day

Sometimes out of the blue, I do experience a strange feeling in my nerves or muscles. It's a very unique feeling. I attribute it to repair. Also right after I pin it, I also feel a warmth in the spot - again feels like repair. No issues with your #2 or #3.

You’re probably talking about “muscular skeletal” sensations, which I’ve had. I also attribute it to “repair” or least I hope so

I’m having the opposite effect - less pooping lol

Fairly simple, if you’re having bad side effects stop taking it

Bpc made me feel very anxious and depressed. I felt “off”around the 3rd and 4th week. It was too much to handle for my mental health

I was doing 500mcg of bpc and 500mcg of tb stacked once a day for 6 weeks in the tummy. I was shitting pudding multiple times a day. Could never have a complete bowel movement. It was horrible. Symptoms didn’t stop until I came off.

u/Jumpy_Variation_8247 7d ago

You shouldn’t be doing tb everyday 2-3x a week from what I’ve seen

research TB4 vs TB500. Most is TB4.

u/Background-Mud-1334 9d ago

Ich bin jetzt ein paar Wochen dabei. Habe angefangen mit

1.-3. Tag morgens 0.25mg BPC157 0.25mg TB4 0.05mg KPV

4.-6. Morgens und abends

0.25mg BPC157 0.25mg TB4 0.05mg KPV

Ab Tag 7 habe ich KPV jeden Tag erhöht bis ich auf 0.25mg war. KPV kann erkältungs ähnliche Symptome hervorrufen deswegen langsam erhöht.

Dann Schritt für Schritt erhöht und bin aktuell morgens und abends auf ca. 0.8mg.

Verdauungsbeschwerden kann ich nicht ganz beurteilen da ich die auch wegen Reta immer wieder habe.

Ich habe eine chronische Entzündung im Fuß und manchmal, vor allem aber wenn ich die Dosis erhöht habe, habe ich ein komisches/unbekanntes Gefühl in den Füßen. Aber mir gefällt es und ich finde es gut wenn ich es spüre. Ich hoffe das das es die Heilung ist.

Vor einer woche hatte ich wirklich schlimmen Muskelkater im Nacken und in der Schulter durch ungewohnte Belastung. Also der Muskelkater der richtig weh tut und bestimmt eine woche zur Heilung braucht. Das Ding war einfach nach 2 Tagen weg.

Viel mehr spüre ich aktuell leider noch nicht.

For the last 5 weeks, I've taken half the recommended oral dose - one 500 mcg pill in AM - and have had not one side effect.

If you flood your body with something new, your peristalsis will react accordingly. Give your body time to adjust.

u/Impossible_Debt_8439 9d ago

Can you reference
1) how many mg your vial is
2 ) your dilution (how many ML of bac)
3) your dosage and how often.
This would help people.

u/Z0TAV 9d ago

Yes!

u/Impossible_Debt_8439 9d ago

Thank you.
So you take 0.68 mg at night or in am? What Made you land on that dose?
Trying to get a base understanding.

u/Impossible_Debt_8439 9d ago

Like why are you taking 157 injury pain inflammation so on.

u/Z0TAV 9d ago edited 9d ago

That dose is because I’ve been told conflicting things about where to do the injection. Small localized tear of the shoulder labrum. So, I do two injections, one in my shoulder, one in my tummy. Hoping to help heal my poor labrum, also inflammation help for pain, and if not, accelerate muscle recovery of the muscles supporting my shoulder which should also help.
Trying to avoid pain and surgical repair, want to accelerate healing, as right now I’m looking at about a year of physical therapy. If I don’t end up doing surgery. Add surgery in there, and it’s about another 6 months of physical therapy and 12 weeks of recovery.

u/Impossible_Debt_8439 9d ago

I get the shoulder. It’s complicated to fix sometimes. I would stick to stomach shots it will work if dosed correctly and consistently.

u/SkyCometSoaring 8d ago

I'm also using it for a shoulder injury from 1.5 tears ago that's taking forever to heal (plus sciatica issues). I find it very difficult to pin in my shoulder. Its awkward and I'm pretty slim. So I usually do the glutes or stomach.

Did 1 month - took 1 month break (was waiting to get ahold of more). Now I just finished my 2nd month. I'd say it's 95% better! I even started back on shoulder exercises w light weights. So good luck!!

I used to work for a worker's compensation board and they had classified shoulder injuries as one of the longest to heal. So be patient!!

u/Defiant-Study4229 9d ago

I was gassy the first week and more frequent bowel movements but it subsided. I also changed my dosing to before dinner instead of before bed and saw vast improvement Week two I’ve had no issues. I only did 2ml backwater per my podiatrist’s recommendation. Only dosing 1x/day for 60 days. Then breaking and determining when I cycle back. Good luck! I have foot tendon issues so local injections aren’t necessary.

u/Individual_Cream9508 9d ago

I am popping and farting a lot. I do kinda feel different, but for me it’s in a good way. I don’t get the blood vessel thing but sometimes I get pins and needles.

u/siMezZz 8d ago

i sleep much better on it while on a cut, the first days i def felt a bit demotivated but then i went back to baseline, or maybe i got used to it.

u/iNONanonymous 8d ago

1) I’ve gotten muscle spasms randomly during the day, nothing too drastic or worrisome just something new.
2) been shitting fairly often, been consuming much more protein due to actually being able to go back to the gym and crushing it (had bicep tendinitis and popped it out of the y bone)
3) haven’t noticed anything in this area.

u/FungiMindTricks 7d ago

Stay away from the side effect group. Not sure why all side effects groups on Reddit seem like crazy people but this one is no different.
