although i've yet to use Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) i've been using slin off and on since '99. one thing i cant stress enough is to always start out at a low dosage, especialy if you are using humalog.
what im getting at here is even though you worked your way up to 10-20 iu's at the end of your last cycle, when you go back on start out at 4. After a rough break up and working 60 hours a week and going to school full time my training and dieting has slipped in the pst month. im now at my lowest weight since wrestling season in high school 3 years ago. i have gone from + or - 195 to 175. all muscle loss. I cant believe all the hard work i put in disapeered so fast.
Anyways back to the point, i jsut started getting back into the game again and shot some slin last night for the first time in over 3 months.
being stupid and impatient i ignored my own advise and shot 8 iu's. now i've done well over twice this before with no probs even with low carbs. but after this shot i got a good feeling of what hypoglycemia is all about. this is even after taking 100 grams of dextrose psot shot. i was at work, unloading a trailor, another big mistake as my job is rather physicaly demanding. about 45 minutes post shot i started getting light headed and my heart started racing. I've felt this before as i have intentionaly delayed my carb intake to get a feel for the warning signs of hypo but this time it was much more serious. i was getting worried, all alone in the back room, trying to get my job done and going deeper and deeper into hypo. i started drinking a coke, wich did nothing at first. so i grabbed another i started feeling beter but not thinking clearly. i was getting extremely tired and very hungry. i grabbed two snickers bars and finaly started feeling better.
after all of this i was confused as to why it took so many carbs to get back to normal then it hit me, i did not have another carb meal an hour psot shot. i had also eaten very little all day before the shot.
combine this with a relatively high dose for the first shot of a cycle and its was a recipe for disaster. luckely i work in a grocery store and food was readily available, and i had the knowledge to understand what was happening.
so too sum up this lenghty post dont start a cycle of humalog at over 4 iu's. i firmly believe you build up a tolerance and you need to start light.
