Constant deteriorations the skin of the feet is injured even using normal flip-flops constant pain and unstoppable loss of muscle mass. Stimulating testosterone has been getting worse for a year now my legs are soft and I’m hard to do everything. I can’t believe this can be caused by finasteride someone is like me? I feel totally disabled
I’m the same it is because finasteride 100%.
I look nothing like I did from just a few years ago, and it was already bad then… less and less functional hormones and neuto steroids. Progressive loss of bone muscle collagen lipids. All masculinity have allergies dysbiosis liver issues pancreatic insufficiency. and much more. I do anything physical even going to the toilet and I suffer I huge onset of a stress. All food is causing systemic inflammation. Suicidal ideation irritability anxiety I cant be around anyone now… I seek solitude even though I used to love being around personalities of all types. The world was my playground but the same place has become my prison. Very bad arithymia and eratic BP is a concern. . Adrenals/insulin/Cortisol sensitivity dehydration poor circulation and allergies being my best bet as to why.
Despite all of this Drs and specialists find a way of putting the blame at my door, their post consultation letters are always an inacurate reflection of what was discussed. As though I have done this to myself.
So believe me, you are not alone in this.
Don’t look past finasteride as a reason for your issues anything is possible with this. It can eat into every single part of you. Downstream effects.
I knew I was out of runway 8 years ago yet I’m still here I had tarmac ahead of me that I never knew was there.
The amazing part in all of this is that no one believes it. Even the scientists studying this have a very narrow view of what it can do. Yet to me it’s clear as day. Everything that 5ar controls correlates with all of the symptoms. The fact that fin was developed from a mutated hermaphrodite gene says it all yet none of these journalists pro pfs scientists an Drs ever discuss this . Its the nail in mercks coffin and would horrify the public
Fear of Big Pharma is king.

I’m developing absurd infections on my feet just holding my shoes with socks causes me infections and inflammations my feet swell and hurt. Now I have a lot of pain in my back and difficulty standing up, the muscles of the buttocks and hips are non-existent, the knees hurt a lot. I’m depressed and destroyed I’d like to believe you but it seems really absurd that the finasteride causes all this it’s you and me and someone else at most. I think I have a strange form of ALS or Kennedy. As I try to raise the hormones I feel absurd pain back, arms, legs as if the nerves were attacked by a toxic reaction this happens in Kennedy syndrome. Or I think I don’t know why my body lives in a state of increasing inflammation and androgens are known to lower the immune system so increasing causes increased inflammation by slight suppression of the immune system. Instead of getting better, you feel worse, but no one is able to explain the autoimmune origin. I really don’t know what to do I’m in pieces. Thank you for your testimony and patience
What I am saying is that finasteride is the cause nothing else. This in this boat some either long term sufferers/ sufferers who had repeated exposure to multiple 5ari products find themselves in. You don’t have Kennedy or ALS you have pfs which shares similar traits to multiple degenerative chronic conditions.
Stay strong.
God is the one who knows your suffering my faith has brought me this far. I’m alone in this. No one is going to help me. The best person for me is me.
The last few years have been nothing but he’ll but I’d still rather be here than not.
Each day you fight is a another victory against this evil.
Know that one day your rewards will be great we don’t suffer like like this for no reason. That knowledge makes the fight worth it. The greater the suffering the greater the rewards.
Some of the strongest and most admired people in history suffered terribly in this world.
Life is everything including pain. Pain can bring huge spiritual growth. I choose life even at its most difficult. I’m not ready to die. God will choose the time not I.
I have been at the prescpyse many times but bottled it. I think there’s a reason why j couldn’t. It will be revealed when the time is right.
Lions don’t die of old age. That’s what we are. Know how strong you are. Most people in your old life would have fallen apart in the 1st day of pfs. Something better awaits you.

Don’t you think we should try to detoxify the body? We are in a very advanced and serious stage but can you think of a detoxification protocol like dialysis or plasmapheresis? I understand that it is a duty to appreciate every day of life that the Lord grants us but it is one thing to live it as a terminally ill person, another to live it better. If you have eliminated the disease with immunosuppression why did you not continue? Because of the worse side effects? Do you like this condition? I don’t!

I did not eliminate the disease from immune suppressants. I took out the smoke alarm while the house was on fire. They simply suppressed the symptoms temporarily and as a consequence I’ve got worse. I came off them because they stopped working. It was temporary.
Last month I was crawling around I could not walk everything I ate I was in agony with inflammation flaring everywhere. Drunk with anxiety and dark thoughts. Diarrhea thrn constipation. Pain in the liver and pancreas physique turning to jelly and new holes n my face each day.
I had a colonic I was overrun with candida and oils and fats. Immediately after I could walk. The toxic overload was released. I didn’t eat for 4 days my face replumped. I looked 10 years younger. I walked with a purpose my brain fog lifted. Then it all started to go south again when I started eating. So yes its the toxins. They are seeping into me through the leaky gut. Thr immune system is over active and thr organ function has been downregulated. No bile or enzymes etc. Adrenals are burned out too.
You won’t get dialysis without a diagnosis. Plasmapheris is hard to get. I’ve tried unsuccessfully.
Have a colonic.
I’m having another tomorrow.

I think it’s a problem of ammonia the liver can no longer dispose of I don’t know for what dysfunctional or deficient enzyme the ammonia that is normally used by the body to break down proteins we produce more to make up for the hormonal deficiency caused by finasteride at a certain point when the hormones return the liver can no longer dispose of ammonia that remains high because of the prolonged testosterone deficiency at that point testosterone contributes to increase ammonia because of its natural protein synthesis function that it performs. The result is that the body accumulates ammonia with depression and anhedonia suicidal thoughts loss of muscle mass due to accumulation in the cells weakness and pain. The key in my opinion is to find a way to restart the liver and dispose of ammonia. It is no coincidence that many find help in fasting because in fact it reduces proteins and synthesis so they release less ammonia this is a bit the mechanism of ALS

I’m thinking of trying zeolite for dysbiosis and ornithin. Unfortunately, proteins should not be taken, they make the situation worse. Do you want to try too? The end alters an enzyme that is sub-expressed as a member of the decomposition of proteins
I tried ornithine yeaes ago while I was dealing with all of these developing health issues well before I discovered pfs. It helped then but I’d doesn’t now.
Good luck

So you’ve always gotten worse? Are you eight years old that gets worse?
I have had pfs for 25 years. Ups and downs but a deteriorating path overall. I took it on and off years but that last 8 have been the worst beyond anything i could have imagined.
But boy do I know if I get out of this what none pfs people cry and moan about all day would make me cheer with joy
