yes, theoretically it is true, but probably the pharmacology of esters means that in practice the effects of Deca vs NPP can differ in some way

You notice a difference with NPP and deca? Tren ace and Tren e? Boldenone cypionate vs Boldenone U?

I don't, but many people claim to feel/see differences.

We react so individually to different medications that it's hard not to believe it, especially since these aren't isolated cases; many people say so.

For me, Deca really does work well for joints. I’ll be on a low dose forever.

Worth a try.

Man if you don’t get the surgery it’s only going to get worse. And the worse it get the harder the recovery. Stop masking it with gear nor drugs at this point it won’t do crap.

If you still want to go that route. Give klow a try. This stuff has changed my life. It a miracle drug for me. All my pains have gone away like magic.

I always get some pain on my recent operated shoulder when I do chest or machine flies. So I had to go very low on weights. Also my right knee started hurl it of nowhere. I couldn’t even squat down. After starting klow it’s all gone.

Yesterday when I sat on the chest machine. I was taken by how I had no pain and was able to go so heavy on the weight. I thought ok tomorrow this is going to kick back at me . Well I woke up with absolutely no pain. I’m in love with klow. My wife is jealous that I love klow

Worth a try. I’ll google klow
Need both knees. And surgeon said prob need a cadaver shoulder. So at 58 I know putting it off is not good. Just know at this point being self employed being down for months would drive me insane. I’ll prob always have a limp anyway from a prior 30’ fall.

Not really lookin to mask it but once I added deca I don’t wake up screaming in pain and fear the first few steps every morning.

That’s terrible man. I can only imagine the pain you are in. You are 4 years older than me. The older we get the more we start paying for our past injuries.

I’ll be honest IF it was me in your shoes and the age. I would do the surgery at least the knees. And take the klow now and after.

I know the down time sucks. But we can’t let that let the time go by at our age. Because it will just make recovery worse. I wish you the best brother

My knees are shot. Typical bone on bone. Doc has been pushing for both knees replaced.
For past couple years I’m either screaming f&)( all day long or during the night. At least 3 years of this. Waking up and first thing I think is mother ($$(;@ I hope I can walk today.
About 8 weeks into 600 deca 600 test. And I’ve noticed the past three weeks possibly four they haven’t been nearly as bad.
I’m in construction so I kinda don’t want surgery as fear of could be worse.

Anyone just stay on deca for this reason. Also does npp help as well.

I’ve tried cortisone gel all the new bullshit. Lucky if I get a week from cortisone

Ever hear of Knees Over Toes Guy?

100mg per week. I notice the effects are greater when I increase the dose but I don’t feel too comfortable going above 100-120mg long term.

I haven’t tried lower.

@King-kong2 Like @Sully1234 suggested, check out the KneesOverToes guy! Outside of any benefit from that or nandrolones, it's about quality of life. Sounds like yours is pretty shitty!! For me, the decision to be pain free in the various aspects of my life along with the mental clarity that accompanies that, is a no brainer!
