Feeling crappy on DBol/Test C Cycle - Suggestions Please?

So Im trying my second cycle. my first one was (test E only) at 500mg/week. Had no gains, no sides, no increase in libido, and figured maybe my gear was bunk/underdosed.

Started my second cycle on Monday. Decided to try dbol 40mg / Day and Test Cyp. at 500mg/week.

I started taking the dbol on Monday and did my first injection 250mg on Wednesday.

I've been feeling crappy sice about Tuesday. Lots of back pain/tightness seems to move between Kidney area and upper back (just relaxing, not when working out). General feeling overall kinda rundown. Lethargic, tired, appetite seems to have gone down and achy in muscles all over (kinda flu-like feeling).

I'm guessing that it maybe the Dbol is causing this. My plan was to run it along with the test for the first 4 weeks at 40mg day. I've been drinking about 6-7 litres of water a day and taking milk thistle as well. At first I was taking dbol 20mg in morning and 20mg around supper time and was getting headaches and kidney area pain. I then switched to 10mg every 8 hours but still lots of discomfort.

Just wondering if anyone can suggest what I should try?

- Keep on going the way I am, things will probably get better?
- Lower the Dbol dosage?
- Stop Dbol all together and just continue on with the test
- Maybe it's test flu? I've heard of that before, but I don't think it would be causing the back pains/tightness.

appreciate any recommendations/suggestions from the veterans :)

Thanks!
 
Sounds like symptoms of low test to me. Your test cyp isn't anywhere near kicking in yet and the dbol will have started suppressing you. If that is the case then yes, it will get better as soon as you begin metabolising enough test.

It could also be a bad reaction to the dbol. Some people just can't run some compounds. It's too soon to be test flu.

You should probably get some bloodwork to verify your test is legit this time too, and that nothing is bad is going on.

If it were me, this is what I'd do:

Halve the dbol dosage to 20mg a day, and make the next scheduled 250mg test injection a 750mg dose instead, then resume as per normal with the rest of the test injections. That should give your test levels a boost in the right direction. If you begin feeling better you can then slowly up your dbol dosage back up to 40mg daily if you can handle it. If not, drop the dbol.

Some people experience exactly what you are experiencing on orals... Some people just don't tolerate them well.

I'd honestly drop the dbol and stick with the Test, up your water intake as well. See how you go.
 
Alright, thanks for the suggestions guys.. I think I'll try cutting it down to 20mg and up my next test injection as suggested. If things don't start feeling better I'll drop the dbol all together. I'm also taking synthroid for my thyroid and a high blood pressure med. Possibly an interaction between them and the dbol. I've been keeping an eye on my bp and thngs are fine that way.

I did try an anavar cycle at abour 40 mg long back (i know ..dumb), and had no issues like this, but I know it's a much milder aas.

thanks again!

No worries bro. If your hypertensive already I hope your keeping a good eye on your blood pressure and e2 levels. Elevated e2 can exasperate existing hypertension. Not to mention dbol aromatases like a mofo.

If you don't start feeling better about 3-4 days after lowering your dbol dosage I would definetely get some bloodwork and drop it the dbol.
 
I get lethargic and back pain from dbol. I don't know in your case if it is the dbol. Try stopping by a gnc or vitamin shop and buy some taurine it always cure my back pain from dbol.
