3 Weeks on Cycle and some strange sides not resolving.

So 3 weeks in on a cutting/strength cycle of 300mg/week equipoise and 80mg/week Test.

I'm on TRT...so really just added 300mg/week equipoise. In my sport, being a big fatty with bulk is useless and counterproductive.

Symptoms:

1) 2 weeks ago my blood pressure felt like it was going pretty high. Like massive pumps, but it wasn't in my muscles, it was my feet/hands and sinuses.

2) Pumped up and almost tingling sensation in my feet.

2) Swelling in sinuses, throbbing of sinuses.

3) Headache at times

4) Hands had some pumping/swelling sensation also, that has resolved in the past 5 days.

5) Some kidney/flank pain on left side. Have a history of some kidney stones there over the years.

So, I stopped taking eq 17 days ago, and no Test for 2 weeks also. Today going back on test 80mg/week like normal.

Since stopping, the kidney thing has gone away over the past 5-6 days. Went to urologist, did some xrays and going to do an ultrasound just to see how things are for an annual checkup. Nothing in the urine like blood/infection. No stone is thought to be present.

Still now, my feet and sinuses, particularly later in the afternoon/evening I'm still having the throbbing/pumping sensation and sinuses througout the day are blocked up.

Checked BP again earlier, second time, 124/75.

Did labs 10 days ago, estrogen was in check, maybe too low, but I've had those symptoms, and it isn't this situation. Test was 1150ng/mL, but that is likely half that at least now since I've not taking anything for weeks.

Creatinine was above the range by a few tenths almost on the labs. AST/ALT fine.

At this point, just hoping over the next 10 days as the EQ finally clears out and I reach around 25 days of not taking it, things will slowly resolve itself.

So are these just typical sides anyone else had experienced?

Thoughts and input appreciated.

I've also taken some diuretic meds, doesn't make a difference except I pee more.

Thanks
 
80mg test per week???! bro, that is completely useless, natural testosterone production is 150-180mg per week on average so u are completely shutting down your test production for 80mg of test per week! as for the eq, it's a great choice to run along with test, but need at least 400mg per week run for 12 weeks and u it won't kick in until being on for 3-4 weeks...
 
Thanks for the replies. Maybe you all missed the part about I'm on TRT. I have been for years and there is not PCT ever in my future. My natural levels are below normal along with LH supressed and have been for years. Don't care and isn't the point here anyway. I'm on a lifetime of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) using Test Cyp.

80mg/week is my normal Test cyp and that puts me at 800ng/mL 3days after inject from labs over the years.

Anyway....I digress.

The question is the tingling/swollen/high bp feeling in my feet/sinuses and still sometimes in my hands. Just not as much in the hands as previously.

Wondering if anyone has had these strange sides is the question here...not my dosage and cycle and life in general of TRT.

Thanks
 
Sounds like High blood pressure but your BP seem normal those sides are not good ones to have for sure ..... But as Matt W ^^ pointed out it is not a good idea to be an armchair doctor so I would go to the doc if the symptoms get bad or don't go away.


Sounds like you reacted to the EQ but that is no more than a guess you will know more in the next 10-14 days as the last of the EQ gets out of your system.

What mg per wk of test are you taking total and how often are you pinning it. What I mean are you getting your testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) shot on 1 day and pinning the 80 mg on another day?? and what is the total of test you are putting in your body?
 
EQ is used for increasing RBC. That can increase BP. I've had a hard time with EQ. Everytime I use it my Bo gets jacked along with hematocrit. That's why I just go with deca.

Hey quick question deca gives better "bulking" rusults as well does it not?? I am asking because I have never run it and was thinking of EQ or Deca along with the test. Also I want the Deca joint phenomena to help my shitty knees out, does EQ have any joint benefits??
