    Treat the symptoms Bro - take a gram of Tylenol every 4 hours - take a couple of grams of Vitamin C - remember it might be a real bug - AAS use lowers your immune system - so treat it like a virus by upping your fluid intake - dosing with extra vitamins and getting more rest Bro - keep us posted - oh and if all the extra vitamin C gives you the runs - take some Immodium

    Lol thanks about the avatar

    It just pisses me off cause today is chest and tri, and i was planning on upping the weight. I feel like crap. I can deff tell my appetite,and fluid intake is weak. I normally drink 2.5 gallons of water everyday, i have only drank 1 gallon, and only had 3 meals. I do take a daily mens health supp,along with other otc tabs. i have been a little leary taking the tylenol. thanks for the tip, I will deff hit it!

    Everyone reacts differently,but most get the test flu earlier in the cycle.I'd take Powerlifters advice here.
    Get better soon bro!!

    Ya bro just as powerlifter says "treat the symptoms" it very well could be the real bug. I just seems stange you would get Test flu the 5th week in.
    I never had any probs with Test Eth, but always got the Sust flu once or twice in the first 2-3 weeks and the symptoms only lasted 24 or so hours. You feeling sick 5 weeks in really makes me think you might really be sick

    Good luck with the cycle....feel well soon

    i get co codomal from my doc and have to take it ed. go to the pharmacy and get some weaker ones. it realy helps. what you can do for a few days is take enough codiene to help as it realy helps me when im in pain. a way to get it itc is to get nurofen+ and co codomal and take max dosage of both for a few days. my doc advised this when i ran out at the weekend. you get i think 12.8mgs codiene 200mgs ibuprofin from each nurofen + tab and 8mgs codiene aqnd 500mgs paracetmol from a co codomal. so 2 of each 3 to 4 times in the day is ok. my co codomal is 30mgs codiene 500mgs paracetomal. so doing this would help but dont do it ed as codiene is addictive over long periods of time.

    Can't get that here in states Bro. Tylenol No# 3 is a controlled substace here in the states - by prescription only

    Thanks bro. I have been treating it on a regular basis now.
    Just got back from the gym,and it turned out pretty darn good. I didnt feel like doing anything when i first got there,but i actually upped my flat bench weight to 385,and was able to press it out 5 times. Man my strength has gone exploded.
    I had a run in with a bro at the gym and it almost turned ugly. I will post about it later on.
    My throat is still alittle sore and my nose is slightly runny,but i dont have that weak, lite, flu feeling anymore.
    i appreciate the help
