First injection

[Johnin AZ]

Took my first injection last night around 8 PM. 100MG test Cypionate and 50MG Deca in the quad. No problems with the shot itself.
Could not sleep (ended up getting 3 hours max) and feel like crap today. Just run down. Managed to squeeze in a workout earlier but I still feel like hell.
I knew there would be DOMs to deal with and have no problem with that...but am I supposed to feel like crap after the first few injections or something?
I'm 42 6 '3" 255 pounds. Have cycles under my belt...but many years ago. I'm going to try and sleep early tonight.
What about the HCG that I'm going to inject....that going to keep me awake too?

Sounds like sage advice..learned my lesson. Never bothered me when I was 25...but at 42 it's a whole different ball game. Start HCG tomorrow and we'll see how that goes. Sub Q is simple.
Have A-Dex on hand which the clinic wants me to start taking right away...I know it'll help keep E down, but it's damn expensive and I kind of wanted to save it (until needed).
They are 1 MG capsules and I'm supposed to take 3 per week.

Any advice on this?

Is the A-dex for trhe T or the Deca? I have to start the same dose of T soon and they did not mention gyno or offer any prescription.

Good to know about the sleep problem, mine is bad enough now. Although I think that my low T is actually part of the problem.

It's for either. If I hadn't gotten the Deca, they would still have wanted me to take the Adex. My E was a little high (not much) on my bloodwork.
I'm on 200MG Test Cyp and 100MG Deca per week, split into 2 doses.
I hear that a lot of guys won't even start taking the Adex until they have signs of gyno etc...wonder if I can get away with that. I think the HCG may raise E though...so maybe everything works together. That's what the clinic told me, but I don't believe everything that I hear either.

ana PREVENTS the creation of E, if you have symptoms your E is high and taking ana at that point wont have any bearing on the high E you already have just reduce aromatization of more so I advise against waiting until you have symptoms.

HCG will increase your test level which means more T to aromatize into E.

Good info...I'm gonna start taking them. HCG inject was easy today..

Still haven't taken second injection. Looks like I developed "test flu" and have felt run-down for the last few days (after getting over DOMS in my quad). Still able to train.
Throat real sore now and will get it checked for strep tomorrow...hope things improve soon.
Think it as anything to do with my gear (compounding pharma stuff) or that it's just my first injection in a very long time?

do you inject the deca and the test at the same time? Same pin?

Yeah, both compounds at the same time in the same pin. Good news is that my Strep test was negative and throat is feeling somewhat better. Hopefully tomorrow back at 100% and back to my injections.
