Just had surgery yesterday to reattach my left bicept to the elbow and surgery seems to be a success. However apparently it will be 5-6 months before I can begin lifting again. Any advice on any supplements that may help in keeping muscle loss to a less extent than without. Also should I stop my test or should I continue a low dose during this time, do you think that would help. One other thing I have been told is that HGH and Anavar would also help with muscle loss and may help shorten recovery. I can see how HGh at 5-6 iu/day could help, but because of the cost prob no way I could afford it. However, though expensive, has anyone else heard of using Anavar in such a way. I know it helps healing in burn patients and can help reduce wasting in HIV patients but not sure if it would help with this. Any thoughts on the anavar and continuing with the test would be so appreciated. I am really bummed out and dreading how I will look after six months. I am 46 years old and it has taken so much time and work to get to this point. I dont know if I have another big push left in me after this 6 months from now or if I can ever regain my size as it is as of now. Any help at all will mean more than I can express. Thank you
