    Antibiotics... Please help..

    About 6 months ago i did a 14 week cycle of 500mg deca 600mg test per week

    After about 13 weeks (no adverse effects from ASS) i got an ear infection and started taking antibiotics, subsiquently i started getting swelling in the feet and ankles (doctors called it pitting edema) but had just come back from mexico so didnt attribute it to ASS or antibiotics or a combination of both.. (I had all kinds of hospital tests, heart scans, kidney scans... all clear...)

    2 weeks ago i started the same 14 week cycle of 500mg deca 600mg test per week... 6 days ago i got an ear infction again and started taking 500mg amoxcillin 3times per day... the swelling in my feet has started again today could this be a conflict between my cycle and the antibiotics or does my body just not agree with ASS..

    Please help...

    So you don't think it's the ASS alone?

    Just because it's the first time I've taken ASS since I ended up in hospital, was worried it was the ASS.. I've only been on them 2 weeks, will they have kicked in already?

    Pitting Edema can be caused by heart failure. Did you tell your doctor about the AAS? AAS can change cause hypertension (high blood pressure) and fluid retention. Did your doctor do an EKG on your heart?

    The ear infection could be because of fluid retention from the AAS. You need to tell your doc about the AAS. He might give you a lecture, but won't/can't get you into trouble with the law.

    Do you have any trouble breathing since the edema started? Do you feel like you have fluid in your lungs? Or like your drowning when you lay flat? If so, go to an ER now and tell them. Otherwise, tell your doctor about the AAS and get the edema fixed, even if it's not caused by CHF (congestive heart failure) it can cause it if left untreated.

    I would rule out the antibiotics as the cause. How old are you? Have you been on antibiotics before AAS?

    Yes always getting ear infections due to a perforated ear drum...

    Last time it happened i was admitted to hospital for 2 weeks, i had, chest x-ray, cardio angiagram, kindey scan, countless blood tests, MRI on my hips and legs even had a heart monitor on for 24hrs... all came back negative and in good health.. dont really feel breathless or anything feel my heart fluttering every now and again but i think thats me just being anxtious more than anything...

    I was honest about everything i had taken including AAS, how much, when and for how long... I was discharged without a real explanation just saying it may or may not be the steriods ...

    now its started again i feel sure its the deca i have to have a problem with, or even the deca and antibiotics together but its gonna be a trial and error process i think.. i have tried some support socks and they seem to have done the trick for now??

    What do u reckon??

    How do you know that exactly?
    I mean, where did you read/study that aas do not correlate with antibiotics?
