WTF! My hands are numb!!

**narddog** · 04-15-2010, 01:21 PM

I woke up and my hands are numb! I have been doseing 6-8 ius a day for two months. i stopped taking today. Any one had this happen or know what to do? This sucks!

Back off an iu or 2

**narddog** · 04-15-2010, 01:49 PM

Is this just a side that will pass if i drop 1 or 2 ius or should i lay off all together? I plan on running the gh (Humatrope) along side some test e for another 10 weeks. should i keep my dose lower the whole time?

You want to run the gh as long as possible. Consider cutting your dose in half, then escalating it to where you are comfortable. 6-8iu can be a stout dose

**narddog** · 04-15-2010, 02:08 PM

Thaks bro. So this is just a temp. side that should go away with a lower dose?

**956Vette** · 04-15-2010, 02:08 PM

Absolutely

**narddog** · 04-15-2010, 02:13 PM

don't mean to hijack, but then how do pros do 20+ ius of gh, does your body begin to handle sides better the longer you use it?

who told you they do 20+ius?

**Jumbo18** · 04-16-2010, 04:49 PM

I've constantly heard it being spread around many boards. rumours i suppose? or what?

The pros have more steroids in them then a beef cow. For the average human being 6iu to 8iu is good enough. I've been on 5iu/ed for a year and a half and I still get really good results. narddog, don't worry about the numbness. HGH will retain water in the joints. The pressure irritates the carpal nerve in the wrist. When the nerve gets choked your hands go numb or tingle. If you tap your wrist with your finger and you feel a zinging feeling like an electric shock, it's the carpal nerves. If the carpal nerves are impinged for a few days they will be permanently damaged and you'll have to have surgery to correct the problem NAH, just kidding. The numbness is totally reversible just go down dosage 1iu to 2iu for a week. If the tingling persists just go down another iu or two until the tingling goes away. Work you way up slowly.

i'm getting the same problem but i'm doing 8iu's pwo 3x/week (basically eod). I have been on it for 11 weeks now with no side effects at all and then two weeks ago it hit me hard. I also have noticed increased fat loss and good vascularity around the same time. So I guess this is the GH "kicking in"?? The results i'm getting have been great so I have just been dealing with the numb hands/arms/waking up 10x a night with numbs hands/arms etc. Some days it even gets to my shoulders and it feels like someone is trying to pry my shoulder apart with a screwdriver. I'm hoping that it goes away on its own as I don't want to back off the dosage when the results i've been getting are so favorable. Anyone think I should?

My thinking is that you'll have a long time to get buff why suffer while doing it? Just back off and get your sides to go away. You can take a few weeks off looking like Arnold. When you work back up you'll look buff again. You're gonna be using HGH for a long time why suffer?

Some freaks out there really push the limits and their bodies are able to accept it...most of us dont fall into that category. I agree with scotch and karo

During the day you're active and moving. The synovial fluids in the joints are lubricating everything. At night you're sedentary and not moving so the fluid accumulates more in the joints. Just back down the IU a little. You don't need to suffer to look good. Just back it down until the sides go away then work back slowly. Take your time and enjoy the experience.
