Hey everyone,
31 y/o M
5'10"
185lbs @ 14%bf
7 yrs training exp
Lab results showed serum test at 387 pre-cycle
After doing a ton of research, I eagerly started my first cycle last week.
500mg Test E (250mg Sunday / Wednesday)
Adex (waiting for 2nd week or 1st signs)
After my first pin (z-track method 25g 1.5" 25g), I began feeling like I had the flu fever, nausea, aches (which I expected) and developed horrible PIP. The flu finally diminished the day that I had to pin again. After my 2nd pin, I got the flu again even worse. Diminished right before 3rd pin, and again came back 3x worse after my 3rd pin. I have been trying to just man up and wait it out but I can barely get out of bed and it's taking away from my job performance. PIP feels like a dagger and is lasting about 7 days. I would be able to tolerate the PIP and am not as concerned as I am about the flu.
Has anyone ever heard of this happening before? Is my body just not able to tolerate test? I have a friend using the same stuff and he was only sick for a couple days, now he's fine. At this point, I have decided not to pin today. I am pretty bummed. I was looking fwd to this first cycle. Any suggestions/comments?
