question about gh sides

[needsize]

I've been running jintropin first at 2iu for 3 weeks, then 3iu for 3 weeks, now its been a few days at 4iu. I've been getting the wrist pain, nothing crazy though, but now my hands keep going numb, basically a pins and needles kind of thing. To my knowlege this is normal, but my question is what about the gh is it that causes these sides. I cant for the life of me figure out why it would make my hands go numb?

isn't that called neuropathy?

You experience carpal tunnel. You have two nerves that run up your arm to your hand. When these nerves get pressue on them, the numbness follows. If you do a google search for GH + carpal tunnel you will see that this and edema are possible side effects of high GH use.

The one page I read says it is due to water retention. NOt sure why GH would cause this as opposed to steroids that cause water retention.

thanks, I have noticeable edema in my hands, I thought it was still rebound from the show but I guess not, good to know.

i brought up neuropathy because of the tingling in your hands. i went on WebMD to read more on this. it is caused by several things but i have no idea if AS use could be one of them. needsize read up on this subject if you have a minute.

Hey need.......this is common, and actually a good thing. First, it tells you that your GH is real and unspoiled, and second, it tells you about what dose is best for you. I'd go back to 3iu and see if the hands improve. If so, 3iu is where to stay. You are still young and making your own endoGH. At my age, I can go a much higher dose before I get sides. I get a dull headache that won't go away at my max dose.

telling needsize to go to a lower dose, is like telling him to stop training all together,.....it aint gonna happen! ahhaha

 

[needsize]

thanks guys, and alltraps is right....

IM, I was actualy happy that I was getting the sides as it meant my jintropin was good. For now I'll try riding out 4iu to see if it gets better, but its not bad now either, not interfering with anything. Main reason why I dont want to lower doses, is I'm using it alongside a heavy cycle and insulin to gain as much size as I can, and it seems like lower doses of gh arent really going to help with that

happens to many people once they hit 4-8iu ed. Usually goes away after a week or so. Get your self a pair of wrist wraps while u bench. I know that bench press and curls hurt the worst durring this period.


I useto train with a pro here in Jacksonville FL and his wrists would hurt so bad I could hardly lift but like i said it only happened once he started his gh and usually went away a week or 2 into it.
