    started today - flu like symptoms

    Started cycle today. Going to run 750mg weekly test cyp, 600mg weekly EQ, 40mg ED Var.
    Frontloaded so started today with 750mg cyp, 600mg car, 20mg, 12.5mg aromasin .
    Also, I take supplements of red yeast rice, COq10, slo niacin, krill oil, tudca, and NAC.

    While pinning test, I got a cough. I've only had tren cough 1X, and today wasn't as intense as tren cough, but it was uncomfortable. I still have somewhat of a tight chest from it. After pinning around noon today, I worked out around 2. Immediately upon finishing around 315 I felt like shit. Cold, aching skin, and feverish.

    Now that you guys have all the facts....WTF is going on with me? Any ideas? Anyone experienced similar sides? Do they go away? If so how long until they do. I am not looking forward to my workout tomorrow feeling like this....

    It's uncommon to get flu like symptoms right after pinning have you taken your temperature to see if it's elevated? Did you aspirate before injecting?

    Only time will tell just keep an eye on the injection site and keep a check on your symptoms and see if they get worst over the next few days

    Maybe 1-2 weeks and you will feel better, imo it's a phenomenon related to sudden challenges presented by hormones to homeostasis processes. Just let your system adapt.

    Have you ever run Test that high? I recall you previous cycle with Tren .

    No, never. Have run Tren up to 200mg EOD, but never test over 300. Further complicating this problem is that this weekend marks a huge milestone in my life. Therefore I have a very full, very fun, weekend planned. I NEED to be better by friday.....will these sides subside fully by then? If not, is there any way I can speed up this process?

    What I was thinking. Tren cough can be had with any injectable. It's when a small amount of oil gets into a vessel and the kings try to expel it. Test flu is uncommon period and when it actually happens, it's a day or more later. Most times it's not even test flu, but just a cold or virus even still.

    So if I am understanding correctly, you guys think the flu like symptoms could be associated with the cough? If that is case, can any of you estimate the duration of these symptoms?

    Wife pinned me, and if she did it incorrectly after all of that school, I want my 200k back.

    My thoughts exactly.
    Could just be getting sick too.
    Some days you eat the wrong thing and feel like death.

    So guys, if this is in fact the case, is there anything I can do to speed up the process.

    I doubt you can speed it up. It just takes time for your body to adjust.

    Vitamin D (D3) can help with flu like symptoms anywhere from 5000iu upwards for a few days.

    Most of the guys will adapt rather quickly, myself I've been feeling that way since going on TRT, on blast dosages it's just worse after every pin.

    I've never found a real solution, but a mild stimulant might come in handy.

    Probably not. Your body just has to adapt to it's new normal.

    Quick update - Went to bed last night with slight fever, chills, achy skin, cough, all the flu symptoms. Took 1000mg advil right before I went to sleep. Woke up this morning, felt great. I have no idea what all that was about, never experienced it before.

    I can tell you one thing though, the plan was to front-load yesterday (tues) and again fri night or sat morning, and I will NOT be pinning that 2nd front-loaded shot until Sunday evening after this weekends events. Not risking inducing those symptoms again, or worse, inducing them for a prolonged period.
