hey everyone,Ive been thinking about what/or if there could be a conventional scientific therapy for POIS with the technology currently available which could help people recover quicker.Im pretty sure during the days of POIS there's a lack of Oxygen in the blood and to the head.
Thank you all! []

And thank you for all your contribution and trusting us so early in your participation at the forum []ps - Omer, I would highly recommend that you also test for "free testosterone", in addition to total. My endocrinologist and GP both feel that this is important. I think others here agree as well.
Yea man, doctors will only admit there is a problem if you are COMPLETELY out of range in a blood test. This goes especially for hormonal levels. The level of testosterone is like 200 - 800. So if your @ 205 they consider you normal, but you are def not at your OPTIMAL level of function.
With regards to Porke's comments, in my experiences with doctors over the years, this is spot on. It is something that annoyed me in regards to my test and GH readings. At least these days you can get copies of your results. In the past (>20yrs) you generally would not be shown your results so you would never know. In decades past there used to be this mindset that the doctor knew all and you were a medical illiterate patient who wouldn't have the capacity to interpret any test result. Things are a lot better at least in that respect.

But they want $30,000 minimum, which we don't have.interesting. ill have to read that post. if its for a high quality study i bet we can find 30 person with 1000$. 1000$ is nothing for a high quality study..

Omer, someone recently said it well about testosterone. I agree: for those of us whose POIS can be helped with T-treatment, MORE T than the average person needs is important, just in my opinion. I don't think we can be satisfied with just normal to low ranges. Of course this treatment should be administered and monitored very carefully, preferable with an endocrinologist.
I guess I'll wait until I start usin Concerta/Ritalin LA
