Re: To Jane/and all/ HGH....

[Guest guest]

Hey Dimonds!

Just read the data out of University of Virginia. Lee Vance in the doctor.

1. It has not been established that low igf1 levels are bad and that it may be a sign of good health, until THIS is established, contending that low igf1 is bad might be completely wrong.

2. No INDEPENDENT studies has shown that HGH use reverses again. Eli Lilly's study at Bowman Grey Medical school says it does but they're making $$$$).

3. It's safety has not been established and even Eli Lilly admits that there might be an association between HGH usage and the onset of leukemia. The side effects found by UVA and some are admitted by Lilly are the following: muscle weakness, depression, psychosis, benign inter cranial hypertension (neuro problem), numbness tingling in extremities, rapid heart beat.

Anyone tries to sell you this, ask them about UVA research. That will stop them in there tracks because thus far, they see no anti aging benefits, but that it's risky medicine. They are still studying it though. Let's see what longitudinal data reveals........dimonds68 <Dimonds6881@...> wrote:

Jane, that really stinks what happened to you! I hope you find some answers to help you ASAP! I have to tell you this story. I went to a CFS support group a long while back, and they had a Dr who was a speaker there. She helps CFS patients.(yeah, all the ones that want the big bucks, and then you figure out you could do better alternatives on your own!!). Anyway, she was saying how she is treating patients with HGH!!! Of course each treatment is like mucho donaro! Then she was telling us that she could get our insurance companies to cover that, if we were slightly deficient. After hearing this whole thing, I was like.....hhhhhmmmm maybe it could help me somehow. THEN I was thinking, what are the side effects of this crap?? How safe could it be giving HGH to someone who is not deficent? The point is, how can these Dr.s and the FDA,

keep offering us medicines without telling us all the dangerous side effects? It makes me sad to hear how people are getting ill from meds. without knowing the long term effects. I will pass your story along to anyone I meet who is thinking of HGH!! When are we going to stop being human experiments? My friend has HepC, and was taking some shots for that, and now they are having a HUGE class action suit against the company, because so many people got sick with Fibro, and Athritis, and Cancer(she had Cancer after the treatment, and contributes it to the meds) Sad but true. At least there are people like us, who help get the word out! Anyway, I am babbling as usual. I hope you find peace and health soon. hugs Terry
