An italian story to give some hope

General Discussion
#1

here is a story of a guy i knew on an hairloss forum and told me he had the same sides from popecia just after 1 mouth of usage and he had them for 1 year (sexual sides) .

he said me nothing about other sides (mental etc) so don t ask me anything cause i really dont know if he had or not .
here is the mail he wrote me :

“ho assunto propecia un mese, effetti collaterali dopo 15 gg. Dopo 1 anno di visite varie con pasticche di testosterone e gonadotropine, ho deciso di seguire dei forum americani e di provare mezza (quindi 0,5 mg.) di Arimidex due volte a settimana. Dopo 1 mese estradiolo sceso e testo totale e libero saliti ai livelli di un trentenne non di un settantenne come erano. Erezioni(prima difficilmente raggiuggibili e ancor di più mantenibili) tornate come prima, compresa l’alzabandiera mattutino ormai scomparso. trova un andrologo che te lo dia, io ho costretto il mio. ciao”

TRADUCTION :

I took propecia one month, side effects after 15 days.
After 1 year of visits with several tablets of testosterone and gonadotropins, I decided to follow the Americans forums to try a half (then 0.5 mg.) Of Arimidex twice a week.
After 1 month estradiol decreased, total and free testosterone increased at levels of a thirties and not as they were like of a septuagenarian. Erections (first difficult to get and even more difficult to maintaine) round as before, including the morning “flag-raising” (spontaneous erections in the morning when you wake up).
Find an urologist that gives you the drug arimidex , I forced my own to give it to me. bye.

Hope this can give some hope to someone .

cheers

So this guy recovered in full from doing this?

#3

Also what american forum is he reffering to?

I would like to know why they thought this would work.

#4

Also the key thing here is did he get his libido back? We have all had various meaningless erections from various drugs, but libido seems to be a tough nut to crack.

Any chance of finding his posts?

#5

yes his libido is back,everything is good now for him .

i don t knowwich forumsa he is talking about but i think some bodybuildes forums .

#6

Thanks Italysideeffect…

Did this guy have to keep taking the Arimdex or did his system readjust itself and is now working on its own again?

#7

he stopped i think,he didnt say it but from what i read (he sent me another mail before) he has finished to take any drug . so his system is back from what he says and it is all working good .

#8

I have read other positive stories for using Arimidex. Kemangd who suffered due to Saw Palmetto also made some progress by using Arimidex. I also want to try it but scared from it’s sides. I read it’s sides are irreversible.
Any comments or thoughts?

#9

what sides? and why ireversible?

#10

Here is what wikipedia says about Arimidex:
Side effects:

They didn’t state whether this was reversible or not. With respect to men using it it states:

It also states for men:

How are you feeling Italy?

#11

ok I applogise. I googled and found minor side effects. I must had confused it with other drug.
Yes I will now give it a try.

thanks a lot man. you showed us some hope

Good god Striken you gave me a heart attack… :laughing:

Estrogen is a player in this and possibly the only player. High estrogen in men will cause all mannor of symptoms right down the line.

Think Estrogen and DHT. We are hearing recovery storys with arimidex so try it.

…onhestly i can say i m really better.
I don t have anxiety and running thouths anymore,my body 85%of the time is relaxed and i feel confortable without all those pain in my muscles and headace all the time and my sexual abilities are always a rollercoaster but more frequently i can get strong erections with pleasure ;i still dnt understad what regulates this rollercoaster about sex and feeling tired/stressed cause really from one day to the other i feel ddifferent .
anyway in general i can say that i m really really better from what i was only 3 mouths ago … the reason ?..well,i didn’t take anything in theese mouths (no drugs/supplements) and i ve been working 12 hours each day and i always come back at home really tired an so most of the night i go to sleep at 11 or 12 am ,so what i think has helped me is the regulation of my bedtime, food and not beeing like a crazy guy always messing around .
Now my new step from 1 week is 1mg of cortison 2 times per week and i think i ll try 0,5 mg of arimidex twice a week from next week … this is not a doctor prescription and i m doin all by my self,so don’t get credits to my words cause i’m not a doctor .

#16

we are very different. do not go on thinking unless you have blood test. you will mess more than good.

guys I’ve been on arimidex for about a month. only real dif. I see is that I’m not anxious all the time. Don’t feel great by any stretch and no real remarkable increase in libido etc. Got blood test will see how I’m fairing, will stay with it at least for a little while. No sides, so far, testo made me kind of crazy and unbalanced. Would love to stop drugs entirely, but even six months of watching what I ate, quiting smoking and drinking, sleeping and excercise did not have me feeling any better. has anyone seen this www.gwenolsen.com (and on youtube) evidently a former Pharm rep whose neice died after taking some SSRI wrote a book talks about the skewed info from the drug companies, and (the obvious) how they look to keep you on any given drug to “manage symptoms,” I wonder if this woman would be worth contacting with our story, had a bad reaction to Zoloft herself. Just a thought, don’t know what to think these days, just have realized that from paranoia re: hair loss, I’ve been in and out of dr. offices, and on and off meds for longer then a once healthy young man should. wrong section for this, but there has got to be a way to get at the truth of these effects. Then sue the hell out of someone! Sorry know that rhetoric is useless, but come on…
anyway, on arimidex will post blood test results when I get them.

wdderbell,

Are you getting morning erections? This is very important.

#19

not every day, unfortunately, and when I do they are kind of mechanical and don’t really incorporate the balls (you guys know the feeling) ie, testicles still feel pretty saggy and unfull. Still no real sex dreams though I have flashes (women, sometimes naked appear). It also hasn’t helped me in (combat) situations…had a date with this girl no whacking off for a week, took her home fooled around…zippo. Now maybe this is part way nerves, new girl, doesn’t know about situation…etc., but response is just not there…even took a viagra, and really not much. Not saying that this girl was ready to go necessarily, (and thankfully she had to go to a party) but if it had come to it, I don’t think it would have worked. I know about psyching yourself out etc., but there is a baseline that I still…eight years later have not regained. Also nerves are always common with someone new, but that is usually just the flip side of excitement.
If this damn cloud ever lifts I’m going on a tear till I’m sixty and get soft the way god intended.
Do you think Merck took my social life into account when they patented this stuff? — kidding natch
will see what doc (new guy by the way) has to say about my tests, but so far, no improvement with arimidex.

Yeah…I experience the same bullcrap with women…it really sucks.
