My question - would the use of HGH or IGF help during post op on a labrum tear of the shoulder or is it a waste of money.
Background, I had my MRI arthogram last week and today i got a message for the Doc that I have a torn labrum that will require surgery (dont have the specifics of the tear whether it is a SLAP tear or anything else until wednesday when i have my consult) to be able to get back to 100%. Because of how much time i would have to take off work i cant afford to waste my money but if HGH or IGF could shave off some recovery time it would be a blessing. Doc said it would be 3 to 5 weeks in a sling and 4 to 6 months of rehad and limited duty and i can only budget being off work for 3 months at the best and thats it so for those of you who have first hand experience that would be great!!!
BTW: Please dont turn this thread into a debate on who has the best peps and so on, if you do please feel free to PM me, i would just like to keep this thread clutter free
