Thanks,that helps a ton. Looking at the GH info on the boards, i may try and go 4 iu ed for 2-3 months and see how that goes. If what you say is true i wonder why sports medicine hasn't caught fire to it and used it in conjunction with recovery from minor surgeries like knees and such. I know i would sure as hell go to the doc every day for a shot and checkup if it was part of a rehab program. The bad thing about the doctors is that it seems they are satisfied if you can just walk. They really could care less that you want to get back to being "active" if you're not a paid professional. At least that's the perception i get from the ones in this area.
