Cant workout for a month or so(F**K)

[TheInspector]

Bros,

Unfortunately I have to put off my upcoming cycle due to some health problems. My doc says I am experiencing rebound headaches from Aleve. I suffer from chronic daily headaches and I have been treating it with Aleve for the past 5 years.

Well my doc said enough is enough and he has put me on a Beta blocker propranolol and ordered me to quit the Aleve cold turkey. Apparently the Propranolol is going to help me get off the Aleve and lower my blood pressure to ease the rebound headaches to come.

I have now been off the Aleve for 5 days now and I have had a splitting headache ever since 24/7 until today when I finally got a 3 hour break. So I figured no headache I could shoot over to the gym for a quick workout considering I had not been for 5 days.

BAD IDEA!! After 3 sets of bench I could barely drive home my head was pounding so hard. I now realize if I am going to see this through and get past these headaches I am going to have to stay away from resistance training for at least a month to let my body do whatever its got to do.

So on to the real reason of this post what can I do to keep my gains and size while I am sitting at home with my thumb up my ass. I have not cycled in over a year so everything I got is basically natty. Should I be so worried. I have a clean high calorie diet. Though I dont know if I should be eating as much over this next month or so. What do you guys think? Any advice or similar experiences would be really helpful.

i would think since its all nat. it shouldnt drop to much but i would eat eat eat and even if you do lose alitle you will get it back fast as soon as you can train again

Ask your doc if he will put you on topomax. It is specifically for migraine headaches and will work almost instantly. Only lousy side effect is that you will develop a shitty, almost metallic taste in your mouth that generally surfaces when you eat or drink most foods with sugar in them. This is why the drug has also found its way onto the weightloss scene because the lousy taste that you will get is a mental and physical deterrant to eating sugar laden foods. But it will kill the headaches, allow you to train, and probably even help you to clean up your diet, if it isnt already.

That is not the only "lousy" side effect. It also destroys ones short term memory.
