SICK during cycle...what to do ?

[BigPal]

Ill be starting my first cycle in a few weeks and Im trying to get all my questions answered BEFORE I start.

I was wondering what to do if I were to get sick? Say the flu or a stomach virus that has you throwing up or crapping and you cant eat.

Do you still stick to your injection schedule?

Do you abort and start PCT ?

Thanks again guys, Im learning lots !

If you get sick just stick with it until the cold/flu passes. A lot of people usually get stick after a few weeks of injecting. They call it test flu.

How long does this test flu last ?

Symptoms are what ? Fever, bodyaches, vomiting, diareha ?

Just ride it out if it happens. Test flu for me was never anything as severe as vomiting. I only know of one guy who got diarrhea. Usually just fever, body aches, cough, etc..

Hmmmm Test flu. I have never heard of that. I usually get something once a winter, usually nothing more than the shits but now I get to look forward to this... can't wait.

I'm sick right now, but it's not a real issue with my "cycle" because I plan to be on for about a year at least. Im just taking my ancillaries, drinking a lot of water, and trying to eat and sleep as much as I can.

Speaking from experience...as I have had a whole mess of sickness from this sustanon cycle...if you can power through the sickness and go workout, then do it. Sometimes the workout actually makes you feel better.

If you can't manage...skip a day. You have to be a bit balance, IMO.

And I have to say I hope you don't get very sick. This has been a bad cycle for me...with flu-like symptoms, major bloating, bad skin, reddening of the face, site injection pain (massive at times-limping, not sleeping properly)...the gamut.

hey bro...dont worry about it..as long as it not some major illness..you'll be ok not training for a few days..i am on week 13 of my 16 week cycle and i've been hammered by the flu and tummy bug three times now..if you get sick..just take it easy for a couple of days..try to get in whatever food you can manage..once your better..hit the weight hard!

i've hit 237lbs 3 times...and each time i've gotten sick and dropped down a few pounds..now i am 238lb again...if not for being sick..i think i would have hit 240lb by now easilly. but thats life broski..

Im going through this right now. Bad shits for 4 days now. Just stick with it. Its depressing because ive lost several lbs and I cant eat cuz it just comes out the other end right away. Im just trying to recover and then Im going to get right back into it and stay positive!

im sick right now and im on week 10 of a 16 week first cycle and after reading this all my symptoms point to test flue,
this sucks i couldn get out of bed the last 3 days and my diet is next to nothing,
im gona go to the gym tomoro no mather how i feel

 

[brownchoclit]

rest..and go when you are well again. no point working out when you are still sick. plus a few days off will give your body some much needed rest..most people dont de-load as often as they should..they just keep hammering it week after week..so a couple of days off will do you more good than you think

i am on a Sustanon (sust) cycle and i made a post about a major illness kicked in it wasnt really that major i just labled it major so people can come in and view my thread but like i said i am on a Sustanon (sust) cycle week and a half ago i got ill i was 2 weeks and few days in my cycle got the flu/sore throat/cough etc etc all that other bullcrap that comes with the flu, it wasnt Sustanon (sust) flu as my familly had the same symptoms so Sustanon (sust) flu was out the question, but i stopped going to the gym to rest but still took my shots when they were due, my first plan was to take a week off but a memeber form here told me to play it by the ear 3 days later i was good to go back in the gym i did notice somthing different about having this illness which was that it lasted longer then normal 7 days str8, while i was with this illness i had to change my diet as i couldnt get my clean diet but made sure i still got the cals that i needed i was really just eating anything and everything but now that iam flu free and back in the gym i am back on my diet

i always get sick on longer cycles. you just have to deal with it, rest as much as possible. use vit C and zinc. plently of antioxidant rich foods.

 

[Jack The ripper]

i am dealing with these symptoms right now. Dont really know if its cuz of the test shots. But my mother has the same symptoms. I have been taking my scheduled shots on time. Dont know how long this will last. But i dont think working out during this time would be a good idea.

I got a cold, a flu and two infections during my current cycle. Never took more than 2 days off from gym and got in every last calorie (4500).
