Dizziness, Nausea, etc.?

[Harleymarleybone]

Greeting friends.

I am on the 10th week of a cycle and doing 500ml test cyp and 500ml EQ per week. (I doubled the dosage from 250 each per week after the 7th week since I wasn't noticing any weight gain or other positive results. Now however, I have gained 10 pounds. I am a pretty big gorilla at 6' 2'' 255 pounds, and have been training for 12 years.) I am 49 and this is my first cycle of any form of steroid. Anyway, I felt dizzy and a little nausea today.
Do you think the concentration has been builiding up over the last 3 weeks and the dosage is too high? I am only doing two more weeks and then on to my PCT. But if the dizziness continues I might taper it down the last couple weeks. What do you think. Any advice is much appreciated.

My guess would be check your bloodpressure

Definately get your blood pressure checked. Go to a Walgreens or whatever pharmacy is close and check it immediately.

134 over 76. It looks like the systolic is getting in the high range. I'll keep an eye on it. I'm not sure I want to see a doctor until I am finished up with my cycle when it should go down again.

Yeah mine tends to go up a little too, so I just keep a close eye on it. Do you have a neurologist available to you? Dizziness and nausea could be related to something else, or it just could be vertigo. If you have insurance might as well get seen by a physician.

Shit, it was 142/94 today. I am cutting my dosing in half. I was going to see a doc after my cycle. I didn't want the issue of gear use to come up since I don't want that shit in my records, in case I have to switch insurance at some point in the future. I have a new doc I have never met yet. I guess I could go and not mention it if he asks, but, after my blood work and all, any prognosis he might make would be based on false info. Not feeling quite as dizzy the last couple days. I think if I cut my dose, it'll be okay.

Well it is your call. Personally you won't get a whole lot of gains on that amount of gear(half the dose). But afterall, your health is more important.

When u go to the doc tell him you're on steroids so that he can correctly analyse and prescribe u the right remedy. Don't worry about the doc mentioning this to somebody since most docs have the patient-doctor relationship private.

eq can be tricky

I have heard that if you are in the situation where you have to apply for insurance in the future - say I lose my job, and get another with new benefits, it is possible insurance company can access your records, and deny you on the basis of your using steroids. So while, the doc has to treat you now, and keep the shit private, the insurance company can make decisions about your coverage based on your medical records. So I am very distrustful of telling a doc. Maybe, I'll research this a bit more.
