Need advice
ad
Looking for some solid advice, I've had a couple back surgeries and and lost quite a bit of muscle and strength from being hospitalized and my mobility is still limited i have to uee a cane to walk and I'm wondering if some low dose testosterone along with some low dose Decan P could be beneficial to my recovery

I think asking a bunch of randos on the Internet, with your list of medical issues and age (I'm only 7 years behind you), is a recipe for disaster.
You should at the very least attempt to get on physician prescribed trt with your primary. That should be step one. Trt prescribed by an actual doctor and covered by insurance ends up being cheaper than any underground gear you can buy, and the bloodwork you're required to get is priceless.
in the future, considering your bloods are coming back solid and you're healthy, can add in things as bloods permit. Things can go downhill in a hurry and without a Dr to fall back on you can be in for trouble.
Thanks for the advice!
GH and those healing peptides are worth looking into as well
Ranger3252Back surgery was your first mistake my friend. It’s the last thing in the world I would ever consider. Back pain is something you deal with, nothing can help you at this point. Man up and have some pain tolerance, I have shrapnel-4” from my spine along with bulging and compressed disc L4/L5. Back/spinal surgery is ridiculously dumb.
I had no choice i got an infection in my spine had to have two vertebrae removed and replaced with a cage, 2- 10in rods, and 12anchors and screws i have firm grip on pain tolerance bruh!!!
I bet you are an absolute joy to be around. Bless your heart
anvilActually he is a awesome guy. I feel pretty honored to call him friend. We just have a low tolerance for ignorance around these parts. Low dose test and Decan p? are gonna do for nerve issues, spinal column damage a simple google search would answer that.
Merry Christmas Buddy
In theory yes, as suggested below, look into TRT.
Depending on bf% you might want to consider Reta. This will help you lose weight and in turn reduce side effects.
Deca/NPP can help joints feel better but they don’t get healed. It is the extra fluid they cause to build up in the joints.
At your age TRT could be helpful assuming your levels are below optimal, which to I’d assume they are given your age and condition you’re in now. best to get your test levels checked first. Idk what decan p is but I don’t think you need that.. first time on hormones is always test only so you can learn how your body reacts. At 47 and presumably overweight risk of side effects are much higher so you need to be able to know what’s causing them which will tell you how to mitigate them. I’d do this through a TRT doc. You have to be very knowledgeable to manage this yourself and I doubt you’re there.
Which form of T would you suggest
Whatever your doctor prescribes, which will most likely be test cyp 200mg/ml. I wouldn’t recommend doing this outside the supervision of a doctor at your age and condition you’re in now.
Test cyp is most commonly used for TRT dosing. Long ester and can get away with less injections. Irongame is correct if you are not medical, should be done through a doctor to help you manage.
The Decan is npp. And thanks for the advice i really appreciate it guys. I just want to feel better and improve some mobility.
I've seen npp labeled as decan p.
