...and I'm going through it right now. If you think you got it bad, check out my horror story.
I'm 4 weeks into my Primobolan/Testosterone cycle. A week ago from last Sunday I came down with what can only be described as the worst flu I've ever had. I'm talking, can't get out of bed, severe body aches, can't swallow because your throat is on fire, 102 temperature, etc. I noticed right from the start, my urine was very dark, so I figured I was dehydrated and drank as many fluids as I could swallow (even ice water hurt to swallow) and stopped my Dieselbolan as a pre-caution. I also stopped my excess protein consumption and all the supplements so as not to stress my liver and kindneys further (this is how bad I felt). Come Wednesday, I did another injection of test and Primo to keep my levels stable. I started to feel better, but my urine was still getting darker. Come Friday, I had the onset of jaundice. Saturday was worse and I almost went to the ER. Doc said if I have any fever, or it gets worse to go. It seemed to level off, but I had urine and blood work today and my billirubin and urine protein are off the charts. I'm waiting to see how the blood comes back tomorrow and hoping this can be cured and that I haven't got too much damage to my liver and kidneys. Obviously, I stopped my cycle and will have to go into PCT, which right now is secondary to me getting better.
Even though I did everything right, a freak sickness came along and infiltrated my body. What part, if any, the gear played in all this I don't know, but I know Primo increases red blood cell count. A healthy liver can handle this, but maybe not a stressed one like mine thats not operating 100%. Prudence dictates that I stop putting all foreign substances into my body for right now. More importantly, I'm trying to escape with my health intact and its scary. I can't believe this is happening to me.
Everyone out there, take your AAS use seriously. These drugs are serious business and can complicate matters seriously and unexpectedly. Remember: Life can turn on a dime...
Peace.
