Week Two, Cycle Number One, and Flu like Symptoms

[Shootsteel]

I have read around and around the net the past few days trying to find an answer to this question....none have satisfied me so sorry if this sounds repetitive.

Using straight Test-E @ 600 per week single injection on Sundays in the AM.

Yes I am using an AI

Sunday night approx 8 hours after my second injection I started feeling feverish.....went to lie down....took some Tylenol...went to sleep.

Monday woke up and I am worse.....stayed in bed....no appetite....went to sleep.

Tuesday woke up ...feel worse...now I got swollen neck nodes and by PM I have a sore throat....tylenol...sleep

Wednesday ....Shitty again but better

Thursday......Shitty but better and throat is not sore any longer

Friday.....better and eating

Coincidence? (I hope)

or have others really went through this and did it pass....

Thanks in advance for your help

Injection site does not look abnormal.....can't even tell where the needle went in.........thats my puzzle.....I guess I will know for sure this Sunday.

Hi Shoot,

"test flu" is most definitely real. I suffered from it for almost two weeks. Your body is reacting to all the hormone flooding your system and it triggers an immune response. Do a quick search for "test flu". You'll feel better soon.

Good luck! :-)

Maybe 2 300ml injections would be better?? Pretty much every thread I've read they are all doing 2 shots a week. But I am no pro. Just pointing out what everyone else been doing.

[Shootsteel]

Thanks man....just the info I was looking for.....I did the searches but did not trust the responses.....guess I gotta gut it out

Test flu. Split shots ex Monday morning 300mg Thursday 300 mgs. Keeps a
more constant hormone level. One shot a week has you peaking then hitting bottom.

I will split it up starting Sunday and report back results Monday......thanks again guys

[Shootsteel]

Ok...here are the results....I could not wait so I started the split shots on Saturday......waited for the body response......here it is Sunday and it looks like I am good to go......nerve-wracking


Thanks again for the support guys.

[ironbeck]

why is week 9 not that great?

[binsser]

lolol it isnt that from what ive seen alot of is when most start seeing sides me being one of them ie acne ive seen about 4-5 cases so far within the last 4 months where every time at the same week they all have had a breakout of acne some where or another like me basically thats why ill never use it again as on prop and tren i get nothing its like they say everyones differant!

Arrgh.....Flu came back yesterday.....still feeling week today. Not as bad as the first time though....so that is positive

I am writing this to document one mans experience .....hopefully people will read this and become aware of what happens/whats possible....I will keep this thread up to date

[Shootsteel]

Pinned again yesterday......feeling fine!

[mwilkinson]

i had it before on test e. definitely makes it hard to stay motivated to lift. i go with the guys and second the idea of splitting up your pins though. i did mine every 3rd day. it keeps levels more consistant. i found i got pretty good results from that too.

[Shootsteel]

ok looks like I am out of the woods with the test Flu ...I switched from once a week to twice a week pins as some had advised....note to people who experience it ....you will get through it....it sucks and for me it lasted 10 days....but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
