BP and Test

**ILuvTestEn** · 02-11-2007, 04:56 PM

I'm currently 5'8, 218lbs, and 13%bf. I'm just finishing my first cycle of
30mg DBOL /day weeks 1-4 and 250mg Test E/week 1-10. My BP has never been high before and I've noticed after the cycle my blood pressure has risin slightly to about 140/89 I think. Is their anything I can do to keep my BP low when I increase the dosage of test next time.

mine did also. but i did 500mg my first wk then 750mg my 2nd wk starting and my bp went really high to 172/110 or something cus of the higher dosage.try to make your gains with a lowest dosage possible.if your bp rose that much with the test keep an eye on it and stick with 250 mg.

If your BP is consistently high when juicing, you should seriously consider using an anti-hypertensive med when you are on your cycle. There are literally hundreds of them. Your doc should give you them without too much hassle. Not enough guys on gear monitor their pressure and they definitely should.

I always had 120/80 wich is ideal and after my first cycle of 600mg test and 300mg deca now my bp is 140/80, its been 2 months now but I think it was the sodium because my fat intake was very low to none. This next cycle I plan on cooking all my food myself and see what happens.

I would't use d/bol in your next cycle. A lot of guys seem to get high B.P when throwing d/bol in thier cycles. In some people, it tends to make you hold onto too much water especially combined with test driving up B.P. Try another compound with test or just do test alone and see what happens.

Yea, I think for my next cycle I'm gonna stick with the Test E and have my wife take my BP every week.

Are there any combinations of anti-hypertensive meds and steroids that I should avoid using at the same time?

depending what your "normal" BP is will tell you if you should be very concerned....this will make it apparent if it is because of the juice (prob is). Just supporting what has already been said. your BP is not too bad...just keep an eye on it. taking any med..it will cause more side effects...but with hypertension it is a good idea
