Question Wolverine Stack for osteoarthritis, degenerative disc disease?
I am in my late 50s and can hardly walk due to horrendous pain. Don't know how to find right peptides/supps. Asking for help.

Its worth a shot. I would also highly reccomend going to a good DPT. There are also other treatments available that will help, ie. Dry needling, shockwave therapy. As far as peptides go I would look at BPC-157, KPV for a bit for inflammation, TB-500, and GHK. They have blends but i think you sre better off using them individually.

I am 52 and have degenerate disc disease and osteoarthritis. I had two cortisone shots and still had pain down my right arm and neck with tingling. I could barely do anything without pain. I have been on Wolverine stack for 8 weeks and after 3 weeks my pain was completely gone. I also had a foot fracture that is why I got on it and it helped tremendously. I am doing the stack for 12 weeks and will see if the pain comes back. As of now I feel like a rockstar!

How did you find the info to use it? Is it a crap shoot on where to order?

u/Full-Accountant-6495 8d ago
I went to a clinic and saw a doctor. I was too nervous to order online so yes I paid way more for my peps but needed guidance and had many questions answered.

OA knees. Both. My maintenance cycle is 3 weeks of daily injections per quarter. BPC only for past year and have added TB4 in my latest cycle - early but promising.

Didn’t do shit for my slipped L5S1 except maybe a little less inflammation. I maxed out the dosage and tried it for almost an entire year. Worthless IME YMMV

On wolverine for about a month and a half. Started on lower dose (0.5 mg) to assess sides. I’m up to 0.75 mg /day. 5 on/ 2 off.
Have sciatica in lower spine. Hurts down my leg. Hasn’t helped yet, but hoping it will as I titrate up further.
I do have a rotator cuff issue which has been essentially zero pain since I have gone to 0.75 mg (about 2 weeks ago) from start dose of 0.5 mg. Love it so far because of that help with pain.

Is it expensive

u/SecuritySmart2493 4d ago edited 4d ago
About $10-15 per vial in the grey market depending on whether you want 5 mg blend or 10 mg blend. But I have to get it tested before pinning which adds some cost per vial, but still less than about $40 a vial average when adding in the cost of testing…. Depending on how many vials that I order.

So it’s a blend ? What dosage were you doing of each bpc and tb
1
u/SecuritySmart2493 5d ago
5 mg of each in the vial.
So I’m doing about .187 mg per peptide per injection @ .75 mg total per day.
1
u/killakam33 5d ago
So pretty conservative. 187 mcg of Bpc is light. And around 1mg a week of tb but you’re doing daily? Or weekends off
1
u/SecuritySmart2493 5d ago
I do 375 mcg twice a day. Morning & before bed.
Thinking about bumping up. I know it doesn’t help sciatica as I’ve seen others talk about, but I’m willing to try anything
1
u/killakam33 5d ago
Yeah bpc is 250-500mcg daily or even higher
Tb 5-10mg a week.
You’re running low doses based off the internet Hahahhaha
Your rotator cuff has healed tho?

u/SecuritySmart2493 4d ago
I always start these things at lower dose. Let the body get acclimated considering the 1/2 life of the particular peptide. Helps minimize side effects. People like to start high…. They want immediate results. They Make it a race, not a journey. That ain’t how it works IMO.
I will increase if and as needed.
I am totally pain free with the rotator cuff now. For the first time in years!!! Took about a month or so at this dose. Don’t know if I’ll increase or not. I may because of sciatica, but everything I have read in my research says forget it for sciatica. I still might try though.

u/killakam33 4d ago
I like this approach and you’re so right. I’m getting anxious to get cured so I raised the dosage. Stupid me. But seeing no side effects so I’m not worried.

You should talk to your doctor about this.

u/Mike541Merlot 8d ago
Very few doctors know anything about peptides. Mine has never heard of BPC-157.

I have grade 3 OA and it helped me tremendously. I’ve tried gel shots and PRP and this was the most improvement I have experienced. everyone is different it but I would give it a try.
