----------------------------------------------------------- From: Marcia Message 12 in Discussion Hello Cat. It is probably better to start at a low dose, then ramp up. It seems like your doc did just the opposite. I had the same problem you did. I had carpal tunnel in both wrists too. I can only tolerate about .2. I hope this helps! -----Original Message----- From: cat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Pituitary Chat <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, 7 Jul 2007 6:37 pm Subject: Re: Reposting question on GH testing ----------------------------------------------------------- New Message on Pituitary Chat ----------------------------------------------------------- From: cat Message 11 in Discussion Question.....I started Nutropin gh injections @0.6mg.. side effects were bad and dr said my gh level was too high so he lowered it to 0.5...then i ended up with carpal tunnel in both hands..dr said dosage too high lowered it to 0.4...now sick to stomach again.but carpal tunnel is a little better...i looked at nutropin info for dosage and this it what it says: Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) Based on the weight-based dosing utilized in the original pivotal studies described herein, the recommended dosage at the start of therapy is not more than 0.006 mg/kg given as a daily subcutaneous injection. So...Shouldnt my dosage have started smaller? Am I reading it all wrong? What dosage do other people taking it take? Is humatrope (spelling?) and Nutropin and others the same??
