Pain killers and gear?

[Discipline]

Please help! Has anyone ever experienced any side effects from being on a cycle and taking pain killers? No, I am not just taking them for recreational use, I have a pinched nerve in C-5/C-6 and was prescribed Percocet. The next thing my doctor wants to do is give me an epidural...Anybody with info? Much appreciated!!

i don't condone the use of opiates during cycle or off. aside from the fact that you can get just as bad a habit from the percs as you can heroin, there are many side effects: insomnia, itching, constipation, trouble urinating, mood swings, etc. none of the side effects would be increased necessarily due to the use of gear. so if you need them for the pain i would use them but use them with caution. some people have a very high affinity to dependence with opiates.

Well if you are injured you shouldn't be on a cycle bro....especially if the injury is serious enough to require painkillers. Painkillers can mask pain you may get while lifting...that may lead to further injury. Either stop the cycle or turn it into a cutting cycle and stop lifting weights.

I guess I should have clarified...I am not on a cycle now and haven't been since I was prescribed the pills. I definitely take this stuff seriously and really appreciate your feedback. I am just not sure how long this guy will want me to stay on it and furthermore, I really don't know much about the whole epidural shot and any possible contraindications. I guess I don't have to worry right now anyway because my guy has pulled a disappearing act and haven't heard from him regarding my order in a while. Thanks again guys for the feedback! Anyone else know anything about epidurals?
