31 years old. 216 lbs. 14% bf. Been training for 9 years. First cycle in 6 years. Here's what's going on:
Currently on day 26.
Started with 3 10ml bottles of QV 250. Yes, the newer stuff that comes from IP. Batch QVE-012 and exp 08-2012. We can get to whether it's legit later. The supplier uses it himself, and supplies other people I know who have had good success. Can't say whether it's from the same batch, however.
Here's the schedule thus far. Shooting every 3rd day, so @ 500mg/week, it's actually 583mg/week. I figure the QV is underdosed.
Day1 - 500mg
4 - 500mg
7 - 250
10 - 250
13 - 250
16 - 250
19 - 250
22 - 312
25 - 250
Finished bottle #1 on day 16. More on this later.
Day 7 - .25 Adex
9 - .25
11 - .25
13 - .25
15 - .25
20 - .50
22 - .50
24 - .50
26 - .25
Within one day of the first 500mg shot, I started to feel a little bit of tightness in my chest and anxiety. Could be that I just hate needles. I kept checking my blood pressure and it was always within normal range, despite it feeling like it was coming out of my chest when I layed down to go to sleep. After the 2nd shot of the frontload, more of the same. After the 3rd shot of 250mg the feeling started to subside. Tightness in chest was gone, but still had the heart pounding at night.
Day 13 came around and I started to feel a little like I was on. Just a general empowering feeling, starting to feel "it". On my day 15 chest workout, my bench jumped 25lbs. I had more endurance than ever, and just never seemed to tire. I felt like it was starting to hit. Then came the Day 16 shot. I only had about .75cc left in bottle #1, so I got the last .25cc out of bottle #2. Here's where things get wonky. I didn't feel the shot. I had zero post-injection pain. I couldn't even feel the oil in me. I even questioned my buddy giving me the shot, if she really put it in there. But I figured, hey, maybe I'm just getting used to them. Next day, barely any soreness.
Back workout on day 17 was good, shoulders on day 18 was great. Went up 10lbs on db shoulder presses from the week previous. I definitely was feeling "it". I also noticed that my testicles were sore and drawn-up really tight. They were like this for about 3 days straight before the pain subsided and they lowered back down. I figured it was just them starting to shut-down. Libido had increased as well. Day 19 shot, again, felt nothing. I was getting a little suspicious. Then...my arm workout on day 20. Crap. Had no strength. I also had noticed the "on" feeling I had, had vanished. But I figured just a bad day. Libido was now gone and the "it" feeling was nowhere to be found. Day 22 shot came around and yet again, no pain. I decided to up the dose 25% thinking that maybe bottle #2 was underdosed compared to #1. All three bottles are the same batch, btw.
Had a decent workout that day, but nothing spectacular. If you notice the adex dosing, I tried playing around with it. I thought maybe the adex was killing my libido and causing me to lose that feeling, so I stopped it. After 5 days of no change, I thought I'd just try upping it slightly. Still, no change. I've only gained 4lbs as yet this cycle, and have zero appetite, and no libido. Although erectile function is still present, the drive is gone.
Does anyone have any thoughts as to what the hell is going on? At first I thought perhaps the first increase in stength and libido was all placebo, but all the other effects made me think no. But being on day 26 now, you'd think I'd be seeing some increase in weight and/or strength. Could the adex have cause these issues? I'm really at a loss here. I doubt that different bottles within the same batch are dosed differently, and even if they are, I lost the feeling within 3 days of my last shot from bottle #1. Hardly enough time, no?
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
