sorry for my last post cause reading all the conversations,you already repied at how much time you took to get cured…
i’m ordering the testo booster
Catuaba Bark,Mucuna Pruriens,Tribulus Terrestris,Rhodiola Rosea,Horny Goat Weed,Tongkat Ali Extract,And finally…Passion RX to cycle each day.
where and what can i buy for Cycle? and for PCT?
…so i can start.
last point is I have heard you can die when you drink too much water , how much water do you guys drink daily ?
thank you CDnuts. i found your other post on there. happy for you man, cheers. glad you actually are here answering questions actively… respect.
Yes, that is the video ha… yeah he seemed pretty intense, but that caught my ear when he mentioned proviron. He said he was doing steriods for a while also, so you are probably right.
Holy shit, man; that is so great. You have really given me so much hope. If I could get out of this fucking nightmare, I will live every day of the rest of my life with a smile on my face. I’ve been on your routine for a couple weeks now. I guess I could give a quick update on how I’m doing…
CHANGES SINCE STARTING PROTOCOL
Lost around 8 pounds, though I have not lost any strength at the gym; in fact, I am still moving up in weights. I now have a 6 pack, and am starting to look like a damned underwear model (if you don’t include my shriveled dick, FUCK) I work out so much.
My back acne initially cleared up quite well, then had a minor resurgence, and is now clearing up again. I have had large cystic acne that wouldn’t go away on my back since I started working out about 3-4 months ago.
Mentally, I feel overall slightly sturdier. Not recovered by any means, but I seem to be more energetic and less foggy overall.
Sexually, I have had morning erections for several days running now, and actually have had dreams for a few days as well. Both of these things are very rare for me, but a few days of morning wood has happened before, so I am not reading too much into it yet.
I shall forge on!
Just don’t think about it and keep doing what you’re doing. That’s it. This is your new way of life now.
Now when you say you’re doing the protocol, are you doing it exactly as it is outlined?
Hey cdnuts + the rest of the guys,
My T booster supplements arrived today in the mail. I’ll start them tomorrow, and I guess I’ll start with passion RX. Got other questions for cdnuts: In which order did you take the seven supplements? I’ve got Ginseng at home, should I add it to the 7 main t booster cycling? Do you think I should take them as the guy on the website says (1 per day) or start like 1 every 2 days (so cycling would take 14 days)?
Also I’d like to point out good changes for this last week (4th week since I started backloading):
1- Eversince the nightmare started, I was diagnosed with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease. At first I didnt think it had anything to do with finasteride, but was it a coincidence that it all started around the same time? NO. So for the last week, I havent taken 1 single Protonic Pump Inhibitor pill for the reflux and guess what? It has GONE! Not 100% , but OMG!!! It was impossible for me to go through the day without P+PI but magically carb backloading did the job. I guess taking all of the carbs at night has something to do with it. I don’t know! As long as it is working! One less pill to take.
2 - My penis size is almost back to normal. Guess my T levels are going up with backloading. It still not as soft as it used to be, if i touch it, but I see it is hanging lower that the previous year. So are my testicles.
Oh, and on my previous post I mentioned that I’d buy DIM in case I’d feel too testosterone-y with the T boosters. I know I wanna feel T rageing in me, but I’ll explain my sentence. I figure if I antecipate that T is getting too high on me, I’d start blocking aromatase with DIM before it starts converting so much E, it wouldnt peak the next day, get me?
I’ll let you guys know what happens to me after I finish the fisrt week on the T boosters.
CDNUTS : What’s your age?
36
Hi cdnuts,
Did you suffer from penis curvature ?
I’m wondering if its possble to recover from this.
Great post cd, much of what you are saying can be tied in with inflammation all over our bodies, particularly the gut. I know that has been brought up a lot but i will elaborate when i get to my home pc im typing on a phone now.
Cd, did you have a low ejaculate volume after fin and did it also come back? Maybe u can post a link in this thread to your list of pfs symptoms thread?
Cheers,
No.
he needed 5 years to recover… 5 YEARS !
iam now 2.5 years off and i feel better yes, but how can you replace 5 years?
how do you felt when you were ill 1 week? , you remember? you couldnt do all that stuff you wanted and now 5 years…
5 years , other need 7,8,9,10 years or probably never recover.
how much money is 5 years of life worth? i want my money merck !
giving wrong information is a crime you stupid motherfuckers!
At this point, if I knew for sure I’d recover in 5 years I’d ball my eyes out with tears of joy. At least I’d know there’s and end. It’s the not knowing that’s hard.
But yeah, “ditto” to what you said.
It took 5 years of this regimen to recover? I don’t think so. I think it would have taken sooner to recover had he started practicing this regimen from the very start of his exploration into recovery regimes. I started this regimen (with the exception of prohormones and t-boosters) about a year ago and have had remarkable improvement. Sleep is much much better, erections almost every morning, spontaneous erections during the day (thankfully this just started to occur within the last month), semen has thickened up considerably and increased in volume, libido up, brain fog gone for the most part, able to keep the weight off and keep some muscle, genitals returning to normal size, etc… I think at this rate it will take tops another 1.5-2 years to fully recover. But it is very hard, especially the diet discipline, I miss normal food (ice cream, pasta, bread, etc…). If this is what it takes then so be it.
If I wouldn’t have been relentlessly proactive in my own recovery, I may still be stuck in your location. But that’s not me. I don’t stop…ever. And neither should any of you.
You can sit around and focus on how shot your life is and feel sorry for yourself, or you can do something about it. I was not going to let this drug dictate to me what my life was going to be. I do that. I make my own life. I make my own calls. No one or nothing else does.
And there in lies the clutch. You have some poor saps around here with an attitude so negative, pessimistic and defeatist, that even with this information sitting on the screen in front of them, they’ll just throw up there hands and make some bullshit excuse why it won’t work for them. And you know what? They’re right. If they start any endeavor with that attitude, it’s failed before it even got off the ground.
We all have choices to make in life. You can choose to make your life your own, or you can choose to be one of the sheeple…obvilious to your own power, as most people are. It’s a shame.
Yeah, it sucks what Merck did. It sucks that it happened to us. But Jesus Christ don’t let it be what defines your life. That’s sad and pathetic. Dust yourself off and get moving. Stop dwelling on it. You’re just giving it all the more relevance.
At this point it’s just a negative blip on my past radar screen. Nothing more. It was just an un pleasant time in my life that holds no sway over me anymore what so ever. I’m suggesting you all make it just a foot note in your life instead of the whole damn book.
VERY GOOD ADVICE CD!
I can totally relate to being ‘stuck’ in the doom/gloom mindset and I’m betting this had a lot to do with my wife filing for divorce last week. Ever since that last arguement we had, I’ve quit drinking, fasted 4 days, stopped TRT, stopped clomid and anastrozole, stopped anti-depressants(wellbutrin 300mg) and STARTED eating healthy and getting exercise.
For the past two weeks I’ve worked out EVERY day except last Sunday.
Lifting weights, upper body/lower body alternating, and walking a fast pace on treadmill for 2 miles every day. EXERCISE HAS MADE THE LARGEST DIFFERENCE than ANY medication I’ve tried. I feel so much better, no anger, no anxiety, minimal depression. The only reason I’m depressed now is because of the divorce and not being able to see my kids or cats.
But you are right on about taking charge of your life. That’s what I’ve done and it’s working very well considering the additional dire circumstances. I just wish my wife could have held on a little bit longer to see these drastic changes in me. It would have made a huge difference. Anyhow, I’m building up muscle, losing fat and thinking much more clearly.
By the time I go through the divorce proceedings in a few months, my EXwife will be looking at a much more physically fit man, even better than 22 years ago when we got married.
Anyhow, it’s good to have motivation, and an activity to take out my frustrations. Weights, Walk/Run 2miles, Sauna, Swim then Sauna again and shower. This is my new routine. Helps with sleep when your too tired to think.
CD- Great post above.
Also, some of you asked about more information on carb backloading. I’m posting links to 2 interviews with the originator, John Keifer. I listened to the SHR one today but not the 2nd. Thought some may want to learn more…

Hi Cdnuts,
Did you use any whey protein or creatine in your recovery process? I’m not strictly limiting this to building muscle as I have found many quality proteins will have several amino acids such as Tyrosine which helps with Dopamine levels and L-Arginine which helps with NO levels - to name just a couple. I would think having these readily available in the body could help promote recovery so thats why I ask.
Also, creatine has been said to increase DHT levels on top of helping the body recover after rigerous exercise.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks again for your help!
I’ve used both of them and use them currently. They are fine in moderation combined with a weight training program.
