HGH - Shoulder Pain

[Cardinal Slin]

Finished a cycle about 4 wks ago now, on pct (nolva and tbomb) and started up hgh,slin,and 12.5mcg daily of t3. Since a week after the hgh I started getting shoulder pain which could/or could not be related?

I am on between 2-6iu daily of hgh 3 wks now and the pain has spread from the right shoulder to the left shoulder. It is getting in the way of my training and cannot do chest or shoulders. Left doing only biceps/triceps/legs and sometimes back.

I am starting to lose a little size because of that but my main problem is getting back to training chest and shoulders.

I am currently on fish oil, glucosamine, chronditin, msm all in liquid form.

It got better for a bit but is now getting worse.

Has anyone experienced this before with hgh or is it probably the lack of estrogen because natural test is not fully back yet?

Thanks

Hey hows it going?
You are doing 6IU's twice a day (total = 12IU's per day) and have been on for three weeks?
Or are you doing 3IU's twice a day (total = 6IU's per day)?
How are your fingers?
Any tingling and/or joint pain?
I would say first that you even at the lower 6IU's per day you are starting off with too much. It has been recommended to start with 2IU's per day and build up 1/2IU every two weeks due to the severity of the sides starting at over 4IU's.

Oh and how is your sodium intake?
I know I have to really watch my sodium when on higher doses.

Hi going on 4t

I very rarely do 6iu - that is what I do on the weekends.

I started off on 2iu once in the morning after about 10 days I would start doing 2iu once in the morning and 2iu post workout. On the weekend I normally train twice so would do 6iu taken at 2iu each time after workout and then 2iu upon waking.

Hands are not too bad - I dropped the t3 and shakes seem to have gone. I sometimes get a tingling (weird feeling in my arms - like they are weightless but it makes me anxious. Joint pain - it really is only the shoulders and I don't know what to do about it!

As for sodium, I keep this quite low but is there a reason other than water?

I have experienced amazing results in 3 wks - my bf has dropped about 3% and I can see all my abs now where as before I could just see the top set properly.

Thanks for all your advice.

I have read where guys taking as little as 2IU's have had issues with the shoulders. We all are different and its tough to figure out what is causing some of this stuff. Have you ever had any history of shoulder injuries?
I would say it is the amount you are taking. Your choices are:
1. Reduce the amount to 3IU's per day split however you like or all at once.
2. Stop all together for 2 weeks and see if pain goes away.
3 Double your dosage and see if you can lift your arms up after 2 weeks.
BTW who bombed you? That sucks!

I was taking 2iu's a day and I would wake up with my arms asleep! Shoulders down. Not too much pain throughout, but definetly annoying to not be able to use your arms in the morning.

LOL - Thanks !

Dr. Sketch bombed me but it was a joke - not serious, he only took 2 k points from me..

The rath of the Dr.
Seriously just notch it down a bit and see what if it improves. When I first started using GH I went from 2IU's up to like 6IU's per day in a very short time, I don't remember how fast but it was very fast. The sides were awfull but damn being off for the last few months I really miss it. I think I need to start a GH ananomous group. LOL

Thanks going on 4t,

sorry to hear that you are not too happy now that you are off

Do you mind me asking you what sides you experienced because other than a big of dead arm syndrome (and very rare shakes - i think from t3), I dont feel too different. I was wondering why hgh use may cause me this shoulder pain I am experiencing?

Do you know?

Thanks again, you have been a wealth of information.

I like GH and am about to get more so no big deal. It was a divorce issue. Someone was taking pictures of my stuff in the refrigerator and I had some explaining to do. The funny part was they were more interested in the Pregnyl than anything but it wasn't worth the issues.
The pain in the shoulders I would say is from swelling and water retention at the joint which will go away hopefully around 3 weeks as will the numbness in the fingers. As for the growth of your finger and feet those will be permanant.
Jaw pain is another one that I had, that one really sucked, TMJ syndrome issues.
