Hi.
Female Competitive bodybuilder-currently runnning 1st test cycle although not new to cycling. This is my first year with experimenting with steroids. I've cycles Primabolen, parabolen, winstral and anavar before, however 1st time with test and my diet (off season) has not been like it is when I'm getting ready for a show, but I'm not living off of McDonalds and cakes and pies, just an occasional cookies, over the holidays and more carbs and fats such as peanut butter. Anyway, I went from contest weight in November 134 to presently 162.5. My blood work was done twice and prior to starting the test, my test levels were below 200 avg for a female I guess but on one month of test it went from under 200 to 1290. I am strong and weights have gone up greatly-here's the big problem, I've not only gained weight but have had constant ongoing fluid problems with swelling in my ankles, calves, hands and face-so much so that my feet (per my dr) when I went to see him and he saw how much water I was retaining he took my blood pressure twice, ekg and did blood work again. Blood pressure is perfect 108/60-estrogen is normal. He gave me a prescription for lasix, would not prescribe Maxide or Dyzide since I don't have a blood pressure issue. Took lasix, Fri night, Saturday and Sunday-still WATER RETENTION and swelling. Was prescribed 20mg of Lasix 2x day. Does anyone have any idea of why the fluid will not go away and has anyone ever had this same problem? I'm getting restless. I feel great otherwise. I know its a vain reason but what the hell. I used to wear skirts and heels to work-now I would not show my ankles to anyone if they offered me a millioni dollars! I don't want to give up the test but I'm outta ideas-ANYONE????? I'm just now starting to clean up my diet and hitting cardio hard but I know there is some fat in there too but not on my ankles-I take off my socks and have huge indentations but the ankles are so swollen that my dr said he has never seen a young woman with that much swelling only common in older women. Heart is fine, kidney's and everyhting else.
Anyhelp/suggestions would be greatly appreciated-sorry for the long post.
