I previously posted that I had on hand a supply of RU58841 from Kane, Purity Prod, and Xi'An Lyphar, and I was intending to get them all tested for comparison of purity and structural confirmation.
I do currently have these three samples on hand, and I was up until yesterday planning to follow through and get them tested. However, I have since decided there is no value to continuing RU58841 for me past the supply I have on hand (about 4-5 months worth), so I will not be proceeding with this. Testing these would cost me a day of going to the lab which is not close for me and dropping the samples, plus hundreds of dollars for the testing itself.
This made sense when I thought I was going to stay on RU58841 indefinitely. However, based on my analyses here and here, I no longer think RU58841 is likely a particularly viable or worthwhile treatment to pursue, and I can't see the point in testing these sources if I will not be continuing to use it long term.
I have a lot to be stressed about right now with hair and life (including taking proper care of my scalp expander for pending forehead reduction surgery which is currently implanted against my skull and I need to resume expansion of to minimize risks of the plastic breaking down or tearing), and I can't be taking on additional financial or time costs to assess treatments that are no longer relevant to me.
If anyone is interested in how to get things tested, I will make a post shortly to summarize how to do it, and perhaps if you need it, you can get your own source tested directly yourself at a lab local to you.
Sincerely sorry, but I have to take care of what's most important to me and my hair, which is no longer RU58841, and I can't waste resources on things that in my opinion don't matter. I feel bad but it is what it is.
