Weird muscle/joint pain, from my cycle?

**Stumbo** · 10-26-2004, 04:15 PM

Im currently doing a cycle of test(600mg/weekly) equipoise (500mg/weekly) and dbol (55mgs daily).

Ive been on the dbol for 4 days, and i just did my first injection on saturday. Yesterday I trained my arms and i have been having a ton of pain in my bis/tris anytime i do anything. For example, I gave a girl at my work a hug today and squeezed her as hard as i could and after i let go my bicepts were throbbing for the next 30 minutes. I also have a bit of pain in my shoulders/elbows any time i do anything out of normal range of motion (example:reach for somthing on the top shelf)

Ive been drinking a ton of water, so i doubt thats whats causing it. Im going to start taking potassium and see if that helps any.

Any advise/ideas whast going on?

Thanks guys

Eq dries my joints out big time and aggravates tendonitis for me. But if you just starte it's too soon.

yeah, thats what i was thinking, and thats what it seems like, my joints and tendons.

The only thing im taking that has started working is nolvadex (20mg/daily) and the dbol . Ive never had this happend on nolvadex before.

It wouldn't be the nolva. Go ahead and stop the dbol for a week. If the pain goes away, thats it. All these compounds react with everyone differently. On Dbol, my neck glands swell up so bad it hurts to turn my head, so I don't use it. But if I had to guess...your one of the many guys whos joints dry out painfully from Eq.

What can i do to combat this? Potassium gluconate? Tarine?

BTW, i just started taking letro tonight, is that going to make matters worse?

Im cutting back on the dbol , btw, to 27.5mgs/daily

I'm on week 9 of test/deca and i've had bicep pumps for at least 4 weeks. My arms are always tight and full. not in pain but have that pumped feeling all day. as a matter of fact, just bending my arm to shave causes a bicep burn. i think this pump just goes with the territory.
