follicept - what's this?

[nameless]

maybe he should change is user id to "shameless"

Yea right, it's shameless to say that a company that is perhaps about to get hundreds of millions of dollars should think about the people who supported them and helped them when they needed support and help. Right! I'm upfront for certain, but I have a valid point. Hey champy I need a shoe shine...how about coming over and shining my shoes for a nickel. LOL.

Of course you're not going to come over and shine my shoes because you only work for free for people who have something that you want. LOL!!!

92 pages on this and there is really no evidence whatsoever it will do much of anything yet. Its all theory crafting so far on a problem as complicated as MPB. I know trying to build hype but how about the results and then the hype train? We all know the previous hype trains were all derailed.

This is a JarJar thread now. Entropy is basically zero from this point on.

I've been cringing the whole way through reading these posts. Can we please get this thread back on track again? Anyone? Good for a laugh if nothing else.

Hey listen, I admit that the things I said in my posts earlier today were ill-conceived, ill-advised, poorly written, and VERY redundant. I was working on two computers at work while typing posts at TBT on one of those computers. I was having a very hectic day, I was very distracted, and I wasn't thinking about, or paying attention to, what I was posting in this thread. I should not have been posting and I'm sorry about cluttering up the thread with this stuff. I shouldn't have done it because things were too hectic at work to also be posting in the thread. These posts of mine look pretty bad. I wish I could delete them. Argh!!!!

I still maintain that there's probably some validity to my overall point but these posts look unintelligent and over-the-top. I'm kind of surprised that it was me who typed such unintelligent stuff because it's usually me who says that some other poster posted unintelligent stuff.

I think we should move on past this issue and I'm sorry about talking all of the stupid stuff that I talked earlier today.

I've never read that

You're right, you haven't, since Devon never said that. Nameless is just a quack. It's no wonder researchers never answer emails/want to engage with us when we have people like him requesting discounts and stock for typing something into Google. He's too dense to realize that this is different than pulling over to fix someone's flat; we are the ones that need the treatment, and in turn, our "work" is potentially helping to get it!

Sorry to interrupt the argument, first time posting after long time reading. I like the science behind this approach although it's not yet proven. I just want to ask, assuming this works as anticipated/hoped, would there be any difference in its action in women vs men? And would it be appropriate for diffuse loss, as in easily applied? Also noting the mention that it could increase the minoxidil dose systemically, is this supposing minox was applied in a close timeframe relative to the follicept, or if you stagger it by a few hours (morn/night) then this wouldn't be an issue.
I understand it's all hypothetical at this stage

I think at this point the most reasonable thing to do is open another thread so we can start fresh and remain informed about follicept progress (most of of are legitimately interested in hearing from them)

There shouldnt be room for balding brothers to attack them self when we are with the same goal.

Devon said when he receives the IGF-1 hes going to make a video applying the gel. Let Devon start the new thread with the video being the first post

[Hairismylife]

When does he expect to receive the IGF-1?

[tf2legend]

When does he expect to receive the IGF-1?

April 17-24

(possibly before that)

[Hairismylife]

Support you as always Devon!

[NeedHairASAP]

OK needhairasap so you're saying that this is the new scientific order and according to you this is how things are going in the treatment development process today. So please tell me which of the below hair loss researchers are also using this new method of treatment development in hair loss research? Which of these researchers are asking regular-guys at websites to contact chemical companies for them to help set-up clinical tials:

1. Jahoda

2. Christiano

3. Lauster

4. Cotseralis

5. Histogen

6. Replicel

7. Shisheido

8. Glaxo

9. Anybody besides Follicept


After all, since this is the new way you should be able to come up with at least one more company, one more researcher, who is asking regular guys at hair loss websites to contact chemical companies to try to find chemicals for the researcher in an effort to get clinical trials set-up?????

First jarjar, tell me which one of these are a bio-med/tech startup founded in the last 5 years. Then, i'll answer your question-- as you still don't seem to understand the difference between a researcher, a 30+ year old multi-billion organization, and a med startup at a university incubator.

Also, worth noting, Devon didn't seek out our help. People offered when he said he was having trouble tracking down a supplier (which we later learned was truly not an easy task becaues of limited suppliers). When he got the offer, he said "year sure thanks". This is different than the way you're characterizing follicept getting help.

If the igf fail will remain only bim, if allergan doesn't confirm phase 3 we are ****ed for the next 30 years when we will have serious stem cell growth factor and not the prp shit we have now.
Basically next weeks will be one of the most important of our life, IT MUST WORKS, i can't sleep anymore i must know now if i'm ****ed or not i can't focus to anything anymore, i'm walking like a zombie looking for a mirror and other guys head, i'm going to explode very soon

Don't count on Bim. I think it has come to an end.
However even if it fails we still have CB and Replicel which have high chance to be commercialized, 2018~2019 though.
Not to mention SM and Pifofocus and Set for maintenance.
But I must admit that if Folicept fails we are fcuked for at least 3 years.

You can already buy setip' at good price on blackmarket
I think Setip + Fina or duta, or ru could be the good deal !

There are some other things happening too. As much as people joke, pilox may actually be interesting. AAPE. Tons of stemcell stuff pouring out everday. Research is moving rapidly compared to 10 years ago (or even 5 years ago).

keep you head up.
