Test flu. Ouch my body. Please help.

[ZaLkeN]

Got sick after 1st injection. Like crazy sick, diarrhea, vomiting, dizzy, everything that happens with the flu but it seems like x10. Been about a day and I feel almost 100%. Probably will feel better once I get a little more in my belly.


I know for sure it's test flu but is it possible my dosage is to high? Running 750mg testosterone enanthate(every 3.5 days) with 250 iu hcg(every 3.5 days) and 25 mg exemestane(every other day)per week. This is my third cycle and I haven't ever had these symptoms before. Will this happen after every injection? Or maybe I should lower it to 500mg a week. Is lowering the dosage ok to do during a cycle? I feel that might mess something up. Or do I need to just suck it up and it will go away by itself once my body has adapted to the hormone imbalance. I can't get sick like this every 3.5 days.

Got plenty of clomid and nolva in standby for pct.

Suggestions?

Sounds like dirty gear to me. . . I had the same shit when I was running questionable oils.

It's from a pharmacy though :/

No shit? Shit, that means it can't get any cleaner.

From what I understand getting any type of flu symptoms while on cycle is a direct result of your body's natural immune system fighting off what it believes to be an invader. Once your body gets used to the fact that this new invader is here to stay, the symptoms usually go away.

Exactly, but I never really experience this or have seen others report this on clean gear. Possible though. . . .I dunno


I just always associate this with not the cleanest gear.

Just seen your post in the juice pic section. I can't consider that shit any sort of Pharma grade. Maybe, but it don't look it. All of the shit out of the Pharma grade shit I have seen out of India comes in ampules and the most common one is Omnadren. That shit, I have never seen.

Maybe I should PCT off then? I think I'll try one more injection and if it doesn't go away I'll consider PCTing off.

Here's a little more info I've dug up.

"Test Flu” varies from individual to individual based on their immune system. It’s the intercorelation between your immune system and your endocrine. If you overload one then the other responds unfavorably. It’s your body’s auto immune response to the foreign substance that has entered your body and caused and influx of hormones. Your body sees the large increase as foreign and tries to get rid of it. Triggering an inflammatory response and raising you metabolism. Once your body builds its resistance to it, the symptoms relieve or even resolve. This usually takes a week or so.

“Test Flu” doesn’t necessarily mean your gear is dirty or that it’s good to go either. That’s more of an urban legend than truth.

Generally, the “Test Flu” is far more common with the short ester preparations like propionate. If you are using TestE then maybe consider to change to Test Cyp
A good rule of thumb is the shorter the carboxylic acid chain, then the greater degree of possible tissue irritation that can trigger the auto immune response. The reason being is these esters are acids, so they cause a localized reaction that the body reacts in a common defensive fashion and thus creating the “Test Flu”

Now this not always the case in every person because please remember we are all engineered differently. So everyone reacts differently to different things.

Give it another week or so

You get that shit from a real pharmacy out there?

Yea man. It's basically legal here haha. They forge prescriptions at the drop of a hat. If you have the money, anything is possible in India.

Kinda cool, wonder if it's 100% legit? Can you just buy other AAs too?

Yea the place I got it from offers ampules as well as being an FDA approved facility for production. They offer just about anything you could want.

I can agree with this, annoying little fvckers. When I get em', I just dump them into a sealed sterile vial.
