puffy cheeks, 9 days out

[Maniac17]

I am 9 days out from a show, using prop eod 80mg and tbol 40mg ed.
I got puffy in cheeks, is that a common test side effect or? Cause 9 days out my face should look like a skeletons face.

I know tbol doesnt aromatize but it bloated me even more than dbol . Just my experience.

good chance the tbol is dbol .

same with you Octaneforce.

And now when I think about it, I also had a very unsettling stomach for a while, diarrhea, after practically every meal I went straight to the bathroom, I didn’t think it was caused by the gear but who knows.

I do hold some water but nonethless I am pretty shredded, first week I gained 8 pounds in caloric deficit though, maybe normal..? First cycle, no AI.

Getting my bloodwork checked on monday.

Drop the oral and maintain on Test. Start water cycle 7 days out with Diurex 3x day. A day and a half before the show maintain the diurex but only 20oz of water per day. It's a little too late for restricting salt but do it anyways.

I didnt consider that. However when i ran the tbol i felt kind of crummy, typical to tbol.
When i ran the dbol i felt great. Awesome sense of well being. And i actually had to
Step up my ai so i wouldnt cry during movies lol so it was definitely legit dbol. The tbol didnt do that. I definitely want to try tbol again from another lab to confirm though

Thanks. Will do, my coach already gave me instructions for peak week, kinda similar as you, just dropping the test also along with tbol.
