Bad joint pain

[lakris]

Hi

Started my first cycle with injectables couple of weeks ago. Doing test e and equipoise. Injecting 2ml in glutes twice a week.

The problem is that last friday i started getting bad pain in my knees. It was so bad that I had trouble sleeping. I started taking some pain killers and now I have to use them cos the pain is now bad in my lower back..

I am going to the doc if it doesent seem to get better by tomrrow. But I am wondering if this can be caused by steroids. As i said i injected min my ass and i think i screwd up an inject. Forgot to switch sides so injected twice one week in my right glute. The second time i hit a vein so it bleed some, i cleaned with alcohol swab. And the are became swoolen so now i have a couple of red lumps on my ass an severe back pain. Coinsidence ?

Sorry for the spelling, english is not my first language.

pain in your knees from AAS? No. All your pain (even if you had an infection) would be localized to the area of injection. Feel those two red spots and try to see if they are warm to the touch..if they are...go to the doc. Obviously dont say youve been injecting AAS. Did you suffer a lifting injury? Squats or deadlift maybe, that could have hurt your knee and later on your lower back?

Never heard of joint pain from what you're using. In fact a lot of people say that EQ helps joint pain in the same way deca does.

Im with MMA, possibly you hurt them another way. How long have you been on cycle? Are you doing cardio?

Weird, the headaches are gone and i feel much better today. Dont know what caused this, cause the past few days i've had to use pain killers just to get by. Today i just felt minor pain in my back

I'll just take it easy the next couple of days.

as for the possible abscess, 3 days have gone by and it looks smaller and slightly less red. Dosn't feel warm. I'll be keeping my eye on it and try to include injects to some other body part.

Started cycle 3 weeks ago. Apart from this everything seems to go fine, using test e, eq and tbol. Arimidex each day cause i am gyno prone. Gone go on for 16 weeks and trying to gain some muscle and get rid of some fat. I eat real clean food, but still i have gone up from 220 to 235. Must be retaing water.

Well thats good news, how much adex are you using?

[lakris]

Liquid arimidex, doing .25 ed. Not doing any kreatin either. Hoping to get down to a lean 210 once i am done with this cycle.

One thing is for sure, i am never going back.

Getting paranoid here.. The red spots are aqtually hotter than the skin around it.. Is this an abscess, and do i drain it ang get to the doc?? Not a crime to use or buy anabolic steroids in my country, so telling the doc is no problem.

Do you use amps? Maybe you injected a piece of glass?

fried has been suffering from joint pain for the last 18 months he tired all sorts of perscriptions - went to a new doc - his was vit D was super low and that was the issue... get your blood checked.

I get back pain too which seems worse when I take the Arimidex. I have never previously had any type of back problems. Some people tell me that it can't be the arimidex contributing to the back pain, but I went on an official medical site and, low and behold, one of the side effects was back pain. I am still suffering from it actually, trying to figure out alternatives. I am gyno prone so I need something.

...go to the doc. Obviously dont say youve been injecting AAS.

Why on earth would you suggest that someone lie to their doctor? Doc can't help if you don't give him the right info, and doc isn't allowed to report you (at least not in the states). If you're afraid to tell your doc what you're doing, don't waste his time.
