chest pains and pvc on cycle, should i stop?

[Dannyboi]

Hey Guys ive been running a cycle of Test Cyp with a dbol starter and at the end of week 3 started to get chest pain. Its a mild sharp pain(almost more of an irritation than pain), feels like in the heart area, anyway i had it for over a week till i went to see my doc. He gave me an ecg and told me that i have developed a PVC in my heartbeats which occur once or twice a minute. Got chest xrays, blood and urine tests and they came back good. though the doc thinks it could be life threatening if i keep heavy lifting so im going for an echocardiogram tomorrow. My question is should i stop this cycle?? has anyone experienced this before?

running 25mg dbol ed from day 1-21
1000mg test cyp week 1 frontload
500mg from week 2-10

Using Arimidex as Aromatase inhibitor (AI) at .25ed.

Ive missed my first week 4 shot by 4days (250mg every 3.5d) should i completely ditch this cycle now and start post cycle therapy (pct) or wait and see if the echo clears me for heart problems and continue on? do you think my levels will be messed up since ive missed my shot by 4days..... such a lot of money potentially wasted but oh well i guess its better to be safe then sorry.

before cycle i was 237 at week 4 up to 253
im 6ft3 and 25y/o

Thread Bump. I stopped my cycle and ive been on BP meds for the last 4 weeks. Got my blood pressure checked this morning again and its still 145/95 which is the lowest its been in 6 weeks..... Dont know what to do. Does anyone know a good BP med for high blood pressure? ive still got chest pains... it sux, seen 3 docs and they dont seem to have any idea. My blood pressure is usually around 118/70 off cycle, and after this 6 weeks im getting worried! Anyone know a good BP med for steroid related high BP?? Thanks

I just saw this and was going to ask your bp. 1,000mg my man, quite a lot. You have to watch your bp very well on cycle.

Your doc is the guy to ask about bp meds. I have pvc's during exercise but don't notice them. I had a stress echo and was ok'd.

I take coq10, garlic, red yeast rice, niacin, b-12, calcium/magnesium. It works well for me, but check with your doc first and keep monitoring your bp.

Hey brad thanks for the reply. Yes I know 1000mg is a lot especially since I was running dbol as well. Made the mistake of listening to a friend who swore by front loading. Thanks for your advice but would you be able to tell me your daily intake of those foods you take? Thanks heaps.

Oh and by the way I've been on 2 different Bp meds. First was hydrochlorothiazide at 25mg which did absolutely nothing, then perindopril at 4mg for 2 weeks and so far barely any drop at all.

I will. I have the doses written down and I will post it when I get a chance. I also take fish oil and probably something else. Also, need to lower salt intake and eat as clean as you can in the meantime.

I'll post dosages later. I searched around and combined the different bp/cholesterol supps that people took and saw results.

 

[rowdybrad]

coq10 600mg
garlic 2500mg
b-12 2500mg sublingual
niacin 500mg
fish oil 6,000mg
red yeast rice 2400mg
calcium 2000mg
magnesium 800mg
then I take a multi and ON whey.

It has worked for me. My bP is lower on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) than it was before I started.

Hey mate thanks for your advice. I will try to get a daily intake of those things you outlined as much as possible. I'm up to try most things. Went to the doc today and ct chest and bilateral angiogram shows that my heart isn't enlarged and my artery system is fine. The doc still has no idea why I'm getting chest pains though. Blood pressure was 160/92 which is still dangerously high. Thing that's hurting the most is the fact I can't work out, which I'm sure plenty of you guys know the feeling!

 

[rowdybrad]

Go ahead and give it a try bro. I found the coq10 on ebay for cheap from a manufacturer, but it's good stuff.

You might not want to think about it, but it may be mental. Only saying that because a few months ago I started having panic attacks. At first it just felt like chest pain and irritation. It felt like it was in my heart. Long story short, a stress test, echo, x ray and er visit later it turns out it was just anxiety/panic. It can make the chest wall tighten and spasm, which feels just like chest pain.

Next time you have the pain, feel around on your chest to see if you find any sensitive spots. I still have it in the back of my mind, what if....

My blood pressure had jumped up high as well and my pulse would fly. For a while, just taking a few steps would make me pour sweat. Just know that an x ray and echo would have shown a problem, so lay off salt and take them supps and just take long walks and try to relax as much as you can.

Whatever the cause, I hope you get back to normal. You don't realize how freaky that shit is until it hits you personally.
