    Quess what the doc gave me today

    i went to the dr. today to get a Hydrocortisone injection. i have had six of this type of injections in my shoulders. but this one was to be in my neck. i thought it was no big deal but when i got to the office i was informed that when he said neck he ment spine. with a X-RAY manchine and dye, and local. the local hurt like hell. the dye didnt hurt at all. but the steroid hurt like i have never felt. it hurt in my right arm, neck lumbar, right and left leg all at once. he said i havr thoracic outlet syndrome. and three injections total will be needed. after the injection i stood up and got the worse headache i have ever had.

    the doc sat me down and made me stay for about 30 min. when i was feeling better he told me i could go and i joked about going to the gym and getting some gains out of the roids. ( i know cortisone isnt AAS but he didnt know that i knew). he then tells me that Anabolics might be in my furture to help strengthen the muscles in my should.

    i had to give my best poker face and not jump out of my skin. i just said if thats what you think we should do. and i added that i would do anything to get out of surgey.

    i was going to start a cycle (my first real cycle) on sept 1st if my source isnt a rippoff. i have 20ml of test E and all the ptc ande nolva, i was just waiting on the EQ (24ml) and some more Prop.

    should i go on as planned. my last Hydrocortisone shot will be in 2 weeks and he told me to keep working out and doing lots of cardio to help with the pain, plus the 90 percocet i get per month.

    just give it to me straight. thanks

    yeah i understand the bad sides of the percocet. i take 1000mg of milk thistle on or off gear. and i'll keep you in mind with any extra gear if you do the same for me. lol

    You doctor gave you a cervical epidural injection for thoracic outlet syndrome? Not a good idea. Epidural corticosteroid injections help with discogenic cervical spine disrease and NOT thoracic outlet syndrome. His diagnosis might be suspect...

    the percocet is standard 10/325mg. i only get 90 or 120 per month. so i awlays have pain meds on hand. but its my script, so its not a rec drug. i need it for cronic pain.

    I thought maybe the percocet would ease the pain until the effects of the procedure wore off, I'm sure it's painful as h*ll....Hang tough man and good luck
