soldier here.

on my second chemo round, taking BPC-157 for joint degradation.

22 years old and I'm on crutches in my own apartment because a warehouse job destroyed my knees in six months and then let me go the week I couldn't stand anymore. No insurance. No payout. No therapy I can afford. Here's the part that should make you angry. I know exactly what would start healing me, BPC fixed an injury for me a year ago, and I can't buy an $80 vial because I have $0. Would go to the ER but they'd bill me $4,000 to be told to "rest and ice it" , the thing that actually works is the thing I'm not allowed to have. I'm 22. I did everything right and the system broke my body and walked off.

I roof for a living and my body was breaking down at 34, knees and shoulders shot. been on BPC and TB for recovery and i can get out of bed now without sounding like a bowl of rice krispies. worth every penny. back on the roof monday.
