Started EQ and feeling sick

[lzicc]

I've been running test cyp for about 6 weeks at 400mg EW now. I added EQ to my cycle. Last Sunday I took my first shot of EQ at 200 mg and later on in the day I started to have flu like symptoms. My motivation and energy level went down and I feel very lethargic, get winded easy, my sex drive is very low and sweat real easy. It was like a switch. I took my second shot of EQ/Test this Thursday but still feel like crap from the original shot. This past Sunday I skipped the EQ and just took the test. I still feel the same so far. I've been feeling this way ever since I started the EQ so I am thinking about the EQ.

Is this normal in some cases? I've ran EQ allot of times in the past and never had bad sides other than a raised RBC which is normal for me. I would have thought if the EQ was causing me to feel this way and so fast, that these symptoms would have gone away by now.

Any thought?

eq shouldnt cause that, what you are describing sounds like "test flu", which is basically if I get any painful swelling from a shot, usually from too much BA, my body reacts with flu like symptoms for a day or two

I agree....Or I wounder if sometimes A guy just gets a little flu type bug that anyone can get and has nothing at all to do with steroids. It is possible...
But most likely like needsize said Test Flu..Is there EQ flu? Just kidding....

These shots of the eq were painless. I've gotten this way before, but it is usually when I start a test cycle that I will feel like this for a good week.

I've been doing some searching on this issue and below is a cut and paste from an EQ profile, so maybe it can cause this, although I never had a reaction like this from EQ before.

The feared "steroid fever," which can occur when using veterinary steroids, is rare with Equipoise since the product by Squibb is highly sterile and pure. Those who experience flu-like symptoms when they begin taking the compound should reduce the dosage for a short time.

Your body is just reacting to all the juice in your system. I've gotten Test flu in around wk 4 (usually) and around week 10 or 12, it just depends on what your body is actual doing. Test flu can happen anytime.

I agree.. Are you using vet gear? I used to get that with QV every time I tried it on the 5th week. On another note that seems like a waste of EQ at that low of a dosage. I've had to use much more then that to see even a little result and just found EQ not even worth it unless competing then maybe if that

The Test is HG and is from an US pharmacy and the EQ is a UGL. I am wondering if maybe it could be from the test. It just started the day I took my first shot of EQ so maybe it is coincidental. I've been feeling this way for about a week now. It hasn't got any better.

I think it just might be a coincident. You just may have gotten sick..

I find it hard to imagine the side effects would start so soon, especially the low dosage and the half life of EQ being 16days...you would have had such a small amount in your blood within 24hrs

That is my same thoughts exactly. If I would get sides, I would not think that they would happen so fast and I've taken EQ in the past and never got any sides from it. Maybe I am just sick although it hasn't gotten worse or any better. I feel like I am in the early stages of the flu the whole time.
