TB-500 + BPC for a chronic proximal hamstring tendinopathy, what actually moved the needle?

Got a nagging proximal hamstring tendinopathy thats been hanging around for almost 8 months now. Did the whole physio block, heavy slow resistance, isometrics, avoided the stretch like the plague, the usual. Its better, maybe 70% on a good day, but if I ramp mileage or do a hard hill session it flares right back up.
Been thinking about layering in TB-500 alongside the BPC I already cycle. BPC alone felt like it helped the acute stuff but I dont think its doing much for the tendon remodeling part at this point. From what I understand TB-500 is more about cell migration and new vessel growth in chronic tendon tissue, which sounds like exactly what I need.
Curious if anyone here has run the two together specifically for a chronic tendon issue and what the timing looked like. Did you load TB first then add BPC, or run both from day one? And did you notice flexibility changes before pain changes or the other way around? Ngl im trying to figure out if im being impatient or if this is actually a case where the combo makes sense vs just BPC alone.
