[thebrick]

Sorry I have not been around brothers. Been feeling real crummy this past week. I guess its the new chemo.

 

[MattG]

Yo Brick! Good to see you pop in bro, was wondering how you were doing...wish it was better than what it is. So how long are these new treatments supposed to continue for? I mean, are they telling you they're working or you gotta keep going through all this hell for a while?

Still did dinner at the padres today, and found the time to do an hour of chest...figured this way I can hit back a little harder tomorrow. Did close to 20 total sets of flat benches, incline benches, decline flyes, and decline presses today.

 

[thebrick]

Matt, I'll be on this treatment for as long as it is working. Since the cancer is on my bone (lower spine), they told me I would never be 'cancer-free'. The pain on my lower spine is my big issue right now. The goal at this point is to keep everything from growing more as much as we can. They are using a new treatment on me that combines chemo and antibodies. Its my new life from here on. I hope it works.

 

[MattG]

Christ, didn't realize that man, hope it works too brother...

Decided to jump back on mk677 for the hell of it a week ago...and wow, I'm so much fuller and pumped 24/7 it's crazy. I was disappointed last time I ran it but this time so far is straight up awesome! Also on 4iu gh in the am, and cjc1295 plus ghrp2 at bedtime...5 on 2 off. Been on all the others for around 2 months, so this new effect Def came from the addition of the mk677. Perfect compliment to the other gh compounds for sure.
