Headaches from Test Enth Cycle

[Francisco d'Anconia]

Hey peeps,

I need your advice. I'm thinking about quitting my cycle already. I took my first shot of Test Eth 500mg last Sunday and I've been getting headaches on and off all week. I've also been tired as hell.

There are also some other factors that might be contributing. The same night I injected I went out with my friends for one last party. I had about 4 or 5 beers so it wasnt that bad. But I know drinking is bad on cycle so thats one contributing factor.

The other is school and work. I just picked up another part-time job and am going to school part-time. So two of my days last week were from 7am till 12pm working. I knew anyone would be tired from that. So last night I got a full nights rest, about 10 hours of sleep. But I still have headaches today and feel a little tired.

I'm in good shape, 5'11" 175lbs and am about 10%BF. I've always had lower than average blood pressure. But I know the test can pump it up.

I'm taking 1mg of Armidex a day. I take it before I goto bed. Before I goto bed I look a lot more puffy and my nipples are puffed out. So I take the Armidex and by the morning I'm "deflated" or back to normal.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. My next shot isnt till tomorrow night so I'm gonna wait and read everyones reply's before I decide whether to stop the cycle or not.

18 per cent of ppl who take adex suffer headaches....you may be one of the unlucky ones ..maybe try lowering the dose?

I supposed I need to go get my BP taken. I dont have enough money to go see a doc so I'll have to use one of those free machines.

The drinking on cycle is bad idea in my opinion. Ive seen it flair gyno up after a hefty night of alcohol. The 1mg may of ARIMIDEX
may be too much,,I'd cut that down to .25-.50mg daily. Also split the TEST 2x per week 250mg per time.

It costs about 50-100 bucks for a decent home BP unit, if you cant spend the money on one then you really cant afford to taking AAS.

Hey thanks for the advice I called up my ex who is a nurse and she tested by BP with one of those usual "hand pumpers" (inside joke) to be about 118/58 so I'm good.

118/58 so I'm good on the BP.

Thx for the advice alin. I was taking the 1mg as to eliminate the puffiness. Another forum also suggested I cut it in half so I'm gonna try .5 for a week and see how it goes. Thanks.

I did not know you could get them for that price. I ended up having my girlfriend take the test which showed 118/58 after the first week. So I think I'm ok on the BP.

Thanks for the advice I'll pick one up tomorrow.

Well maybe i can afford AAS but im still not buying an at home BP unit

Well I think your Adex dose is too high, .25 EOD Should be enough and if your gyno prone which you say you are than .25 Ed should be more than enough man, that is what may be causing your headaches.

Thanks man, your not the first person who said that. After collecting everyone's responses the collective solution seems to be to cutt he Adex down.

I'm gonna shoot for .25 EOD then if things get "funny" around the nips, I guess this means "tingling" and not just "puffiness" then I'll go ahead and do .25 eod.

drinking a plenty of water and breath in fresh air it help you to relive your head ache.

 

[Francisco d'Anconia]

I just wanted to say thanks for everyones suggestions. YOU WERE RIGHT. I changed the Armidex dosage from 1mg a day (thinking from reading on elitefitness, I could curb the bloat and gyno) to .50mg every other day and poof the headaches are gone.

Also my joints feel better which I know is from the increased estrogen. 1up peeps! Guess I'll have to deal w/ the bloat and just keep the femara on hand for gyno. -laterz

Well I guess I spoke too soon, the headaches are back and at the same intensity as before (mild-medium). So it must of not been the Armidex.

I also split the inject's into 2 shots a week. Last sunday I injected in my quad and it hurts like hell. Im limping everywhere I go.

To make things worse I feel like I have the "Test Flu". The site isnt red, its just swollen and hurts. Also I have no energy and dont feel like eating. I feel sick as hell toook a half a day off work.

If this continues I'm really gonna have to quit the cycle. I mean I cant workout feelin like shit and my leg hurts so bad I can't walk.
