What kind of an infection? And dont stop the cycle. Last thing you want to do is your test levels drop and you still got the cold. May be a slower recovery.

dont know exactly but it is in my throught. coughing up green shit ,fever,etc etc......

Typically if it is literally a chest infection (diagnosed by a doc...not just having chest congestion), I'd stop working out at least for a week. But if it is mainly in your sinuses (head cold for example), I'd keep going with the workouts.

In any event you can add my vote for not stopping the cycle. I can attest to the fact that is not a good idea. Too much muscle loss.

your best option is to get a sputum culture to see what's growing in your chest. it usually takes 4-5 days to get the results back. that will tell you which antibiotics you will need to fix you. from that, you can check the hepatoxicity and interactions it may have with your aas. if there are no interactions, i'd get the antibiotics and run them until they are complete. i'd keep working out but keep it real light. take some glutamine and a multi-vit to make sure your immune system gets all that it needs while you recover. you may need some form of airway clearance to help get the junk out of there.

i hope that helps.

remember, i am not a doctor and my suggestions are no substitute for real medical care.

mabusincarnate: good looking out , real helpful info. already went to doc in mexico and he gave me some injectable antibiotics with something to help clear out the mess in my chest and throught. for sure will go pick up some multi vit, i did not think of it ,i always just pop milkthistle , cranberry extract , calcium , and flax seed oil on or off cycle .

try drinking lots and lots of water to help flush the mucus and infection out of your system and load up on multi vitamins

It's not uncommon to have a cold and then get another one a few weeks later that will probably be worse than the first one.
