Over the last 18 months, I have had two meniscectomy procedures to sort a lateral tear, the last surgery being one year ago. Since then, I have put a lot of effort into trying to get my knee back in functional shape. After much physio rehabilitation, I unfortunately still have some issues with pain and eventually decided to try BPC-157 (subQ).
It has been almost a week now, and I am very sure BPC has made the pain worse. Inflammation and some swelling has come back in the areas I felt within a few months after surgery. My first 5 days of dosages were 500mcg each, morning and night. I am now doing 250mg each, morning and night. I got the BPC from a reliable source, so I don't think quality of the peptide is an issue here.
Has anyone experienced this as a side effect? It's very strange to me and I'm unfortunately thinking BPC may not help my situation. Is it a perhaps a sign that the BPC is starting to kick in and repair those issues that have been lingering, and I should be patient?
