Poll: How much do you feel recovered?

General Discussion
#2

It’s being 6 months ago now from the crash, I had all typical symptoms like anxiety, insomnia, panick atacks, a bit of brain fog etc etc… and of course sexual sides. In all this 6 months I’ve been improving bit a bit, getting rid of anxiety, recovering sleep…Some days sleep better than others… But never felt my oldself until 2 weeks ago. I didn’t even remember how it feels being yourself, I was suffering like brain fog and that shit but 2 weeks ago one day I felt so different, I though like “wow, im feeling like beofre”… Is great feeling yourself again… So since 2 weeks ago there are being few days that I feel myself, except for my sexual sides… ;(
I have still ED… Some days more than others… but never get an erection like before and also dont feel the same in the orgasm…
And for me, even although I have recovered from the other sides, having this sexual sides are horrible…

So if you ask how much I’ve recovered myself I’d say 30% in sexual sides and 80% in the rest of the sides… But still a fucking shit cause at the moment I have my sexual life destroyed… Actually I’ve had complete impotence for several weeks even months, and now at least I can get erections… So hope to keep improving till I feel completely my old self…

I left the poison 1 year ago, but my crash was 6 months ago and till that moment didnt feel the sides.

Nice guys. 115 views and like 8 votes…

Is it really that hard to press a button on a page? I made it so you can change your vote later if you ever feel any better. Idc if it’s 0%! Just put something ffs. Everyone wants to participate on this site but on their own terms; maybe help out a bit in compiling a poll that might help better gauge this whole situation.

Well I wanted to say that I’ve recovered 47.223% but that wasn’t an option on your poll :confused:

#5

Damn that 100% vote. Who was that? tear

#6

Wow 3 at 90%. Who are those people?

#7

The tides are turning with the 90%s! Who were those people, may I ask? Gonna assume Finatruth and…?

#8

Those members that have attained 90% & 100% recovery; have any of you had your test levels, cortisol, etc tested recently and compared them to your initial post finasteride results? Have your levels improved since?

Blood work is interesting to a degree. I have a record of when I was feeling my absolute worst. Then another one about 3 months later. I felt better, but still pretty awful overall. The doctor said he didn’t see many patients with as good of blood work as mine. So there is some correlation but not much. You can peg those blood tests to the T and still feel like garbage. Now keeping my bloods in a good range over time… I think that’s what has helped the most. I have had many times lately where I felt about 90%. Its just hard to maintain.

I am worse than ever. If you read my original posts my pfs was not too bad. Now it is way worse I was able to sleep fine for 7 years with PFS now I can not. At the same time sleep problems happened I also started feeling very tired from exercise, feeling much weaker despite exercising every day. I tested my free T and now it is lower than ever. about 240 the range is 300-700 before it was always around 310…

I have no idea why I have got worse. Blood tests do not show much apart from b12 being a tiny bit low. And low free T. Saliva shows low free cort.

Either some people are bullshitting their answers, or this is one of the most positive posts I’ve seen on this board…

Of course there’s not much info (how long they took the drug, have been off the drug, the nature and extent of sides, etc.), but in the end, the results show that:
39%: Less than 20% recovered
30%: Between 30% and 70% recovered
31%: More than 70% recovered

I personnaly answered 20%, so anything above 30% is actually prettu appealing to me.

Glad to see this many people are confident about their recovery. I would have thought alot more would have been near the 0 - 10%.

Hang in there, all !! In the long run, most seem to get somewhat better. That’s all we can wish for.

#12

Well I answered this only 2 months ago and I put 50%. Right now I’d say more like 70%-80%. I might look back in 6 months and say 90%? Hope so.

Good luck all.

Great news nopecia ! Thanks for sharing.

#14

Nopecia I’ve made the poll one that you can change your response; please feel free to do that if you’re feeling better.

#15

Done :slight_smile:

#16

Feel like I went from 70% to 10%.

I was feeling really good in the last few weeks/months, so I started dating. Got a date during the week-end that was supposed to lead to sex. I took cialis AND viagra to make sure, but couldn’t perform at all even with that.

Anxiety was through the roof, which explains it for the most part…

Life sucks. Really.

#17

In January I edited my vote to 70%. Now I’m back to 40%, if that. This is such a cruel phenomenon.

#18

30%
Glutathione IVs helped me alot

Hi The_Ruffneck

Could you please give more detail about GT like how often you get IV, cost, detail of improvement and if there are any side effects. I think if you can start new thread about GT then it will benefit everyone.

#20

I have had two, it is not a regular thing but the effects have lasted.Stress and anxiety were big issues for me i felt them disappear during the IV.Sleeping also improved.These effects have lasted, i also had excellent hard erections for about5-6 days after the IVs.Go back, check my liver detoxification profile test results, see that those kind of numbers could be similar for many others here.This therapy is a good idea.

#21

It’s crazy how we can fluctuate. I keep saying I’m somewhere between 20% and 70%, and varies almost from day to day. Right now, closer to 50-70%. Will enjoy while it lasts !
