I'm not a doctor or medical professional of any type and nothing I post should be taken as medical advice. I'm not qualified to give any medical advice and I'm likely full of shit. My advice should not be considered valid. Always consult your doctor and follow his/her advice. What I post is at best a topic that may be worth discussing with your doctor. I'm just sharing my personal layman experiences and non-professional speculations. My math is terrible and anything math related (injection ratios) I post should be viewed with great skepticism and may need correction. If I'm in error on anything there is no need to PM (you can if you want). Just tell me I'm a dumb ass and post the correction. I'm good with that.
In light of concerns recently expressed, here is my new thread post warning waiver. It's sort of a compilation of warnings I've used on other threads. Is it too much? Suggestions? I suppose just shutting up would be a valid suggestion.

We certainly don't want our members shutting up. Communication is what makes this such a great forum. All I ask is that people don't tell others what drug to take, how to get it (unless they have a prescription) or dosages. I just want them to exercise common sense... do be a doctor, unless you are a doctor. The members we have that are doctors will understand and appreciate what I am saying.

It's a little long....
But "long" is what we all want, so there's that.

Short version:
Move along, there's nothing to see here. I'm not a doctor so I'm just providing page filler. Pay no attention.

I only share my experiences and answer questions about them in here. I do not give medical advice; I just share my story. Although we guys all have the same equipment* our stories are different and we can learn from one another if we have open minds and do not consider ourselves more expert than we really are.
* "the same equipment" -- well, you know, "the same" in general, not "the same" in details

Agreed David. I do get a little bitchy when I PM someone and ask them nicely to nod do something and they act like a school girl and publically scold me (without using my name but everyone knows who they're talking about). When I ask the offender to stop doing something, I always provide a reason. I am not really obligated to. I can erase the post, move it, delete the user, warn the user or, my favourite, privately caution the user which is unofficial. All of the others become public knowledge.. Anyway, I don't see any reason to give medical advice unless you are showing off to someone, and how would you feel if your advice caused someone serious harm. Just my rant for the day. Thanks for your support.
