update on my condition :-(

[iron_matt-CB]

ok so last week i posted up that i was having severe stomach cramping in my lower abdomen area, went to the doc and they did blood work came up a little high on the wbc count but everything else was normal...well it got better then i started having really bad lower back and stomach pains again, i couldnt sleep 2 nights in a row it was soo bad....went back to the doc yesterday and they took more blood and ordered a ct scan for later this week, well i get the call today that my iron count was way low! he said that a low iron count is due to loss of blood and since i have no external bleeding then the bleeding must be happening internally! the fucked up the thing is that this didnt show up in the blood work 2 weeks ago and now all a sudden its low! so he said i should go in and see a gastrointernologist (spelling?) and get an endoscopy and a colonoscopy to rule out anything serious...this fucking sux! could steroids have cause some kind of ulcer or something in my intestine? ive felt really good the last couple days so maybe the problem is gone but im gonna go thru with this anyway and i also stopped my cycle just in case that is what caused this fucked up mess in the first place...all i know is im worried sick over this and im dreading the prep for the procedure which includes no eating the entire day before and taking 3 bottles of laxatives to clean my ass completely out...life sux right now

I had the same thing a couple of years back it took two Drs last one was a stomach specialist I had an ulcer I had lost so much blood (tests showed i had only 3 units left in my body) I wanted to sleep ,had stuff to do but couldn't remember what it was, did stuff out of the ordinary that wouldn't normally do (stupid stuff).
Those last few months are a blank to me it's like part of my memory is gone. Working out was hell no sooner did i sat there gasping for breath like a fish out of water my partner would say it's your turn again RADAR.
THe Doc sent me to ER i walked down the hall to sign in and the 2 ladies said ok we need the sigs of the ambulance drivers, I told them i walked here,they were dumfounded told me most are unconcious after loosing that much blood

I wish you the best.

Sorry to hear about this man. Sucks cause i know you were just bulking up after your comp like a beast.. Im sure you wont loose to much once its all said and done. you can gain it right back. But most of all i hope its not anything to serious. You back on Your TRT dose than? or did you ever come off TRT?

 

[iron_matt-CB]

My shits are fine bro.. No blood or darkness at all.. Very wierd

Fatboy.. Ya I switched back over to trt and I've never been off at least that dose.. This whole thing has scared me because when you have ug gear, who knows really what the fuck you are injecting into your body.. It may have nothing to do with the gear at all but my health is most important to me and this whole ordeal has put things into perspective for me..I'm done putting on size.. I'm 240 now and could get into single digit bf levels at 210-205 so that big enough for me..stay on my pharmacy grade stuff and leave it at that... In thinking long term now

Good luck bro hoping and praying the very best for you.

Ulcers are caused by a germ. Not booze not drugs. They may just aggrevate an ulcer. When Imy RBC was low they did a endoscopy and colonscopy because they said I must be bleeding. I just had minor anemia because I stoped eating meat. I eat meat every day now.
