how long till CTS goes away?

**Sinned** · 12-09-2010, 06:11 AM

was on 4iu for 6 months and then worked my way up to 8.

After 2 weeks on 8IU's, I started getting CTS symptoms (numbness, tingling, etc), so I backed down to 4. Now I've been back on 4IU's for about a week and the numbness/tingling is still there.

In your experience, how long did it take for the CTS symptoms to go away after you backed down your dosage?

Appreciate any advice you can provide.

from what i have read and what i am expieriencing. it never really goes away it just get more mild. more of something you just notice, but doesnt really effect you. keep in mind im a newbie so i am sure there are more people that can back this up or tell me im way off track either way the advice will come.

I work on the computer quite a bit and using 5iu/ed. I have CTS all the time. Yeah, it stinks but it comes with the territory. I would have CTS without HGH so the HGH seem to aggravate it a little more. It also seem to come and go. If you don't normally have CTS and your onset of CTS is due to HGH, I'd wait a week or 10 days. It takes a little bit for your body to absorb the water from the joints back into the body. Good luck.

CTS usually bugs me on and off the whole time as well.

Are you injecting ed or 5/2and how many ijects daily? The more injects I did the less cts I had.

CTS goes away when you are off gh, as long as you are on you will have CTS to some degree mostly dose dependent, effect of hgh last long time after gh use has been stopped, about 6 months or so past the use of gh, so you have no CTS then yet benefits of gh while on steroid cycle.

I was off of HGH for about 3 weeks while I was traveling for business. My CTS was almost gone. As soon as I started HGH again the CTS came back. For me, the benefits of HGH even with the CTS sides is still worth it. Look good feel good. Oh, the vanity of me. LOL

as long as it goes away, I can manage. but the thought of it being perm would make me reconsider HGH

What are your goals for hgh use? Fat loss, body building, anti-aging, etc? At 19.5% body fat you should also be focusing on your nutrition and excercise plan! Dialing in a lifetime nutrition plan and exercise routine is much more cost effective than hgh!

I'm around 10% BF with a rock solid diet.

I had the tingling in hands as well, but was taking too high a dosage for a gal (5) and there is another member on these boards who says that 5 is almost too high for guys.

I backed off from 5 to 2.5 and it is less intense. Seem to get it when putting pressure on the wrists..like during spinning class and at after I fall back to sleep after early PM dosing. It is a side...pain in the a$$ side.

yes, 5iu of legit gh for a guy who trains regularly and on AAS will result in big changes to physiqe within 60 days of gh intake, BIG CHANGES in lean muscle mass to BF%, 6-12 months of use with AAS will transfer that same guy into a national/regional competitor no matter how heavy or hard he trains as long as he trains and stimulates the muscle.

8-30 iu a day is much more common among the freaks you see on magazines, but for the physiqe most aspire to AKA fitness model level....5iu will do the trick.

Girlgymrat, you were on 5iu/ed? I normally tell women to start at 0.5iu/ed and see how they feel. Most women I know take 1.5/iu to 2iu/ed and feel great. Lean and tight. I've been on HGH for a while now and I did some tests at 3iu/ed for about 3 months and I didn't feel as strong as 5iu/ed. I tried 10iu/ed for 3 months and besides being too expensive I was puffy all the time. My body really likes 5iu/ed. It took me a while to do enough experiments to find the "right" dose for me.
