Considering my first run for medical reasons. I have two 10 ml vials of 200 mg/ml cyp. Planning to keep it low and simple at 400/wk. I have three 5000iu hCG, and Clomid and Nolva on hand.
Working on bringing my diet further into check, as well as a more strict and structured workout regimen. I am in the gym every day except Saturday and Sunday, and do consistently work out, but I have hit a plateau with my gains. I just wanted to run some of my numbers by you guys, and kind of introduce myself here.
I'm not sure which of the panels you all could use, but I'll spit out the most obvious, and if you want to know what other panels were please ask.
I'm 25, male, 195 lbs, 5'9'' barefoot. I am not necessarily overweight, but I am carrying some excess fat that I want to cut before I begin anything. Plus, I have tons more reading to do before I decide to jump in. Enough with the nonsense, here is my bloodwork from last week:
DHEA: 11.200
Free Test: 107.6
Test: 4.92
Estradiol: 47
FSH: 2.99
LH: 3.66
I had to request all of those specifically as they were not included in my last CBC.
I want to be clear that I am not doing this to try to compete as a BB, or even for any sort of personal gratification. I have severe knee and lower back pain that I've lived with since I was 9 years old. A lot of my research pointed out that building muscles in the abdomen region, as well as muscles in the back will greatly help to take stress and impact off of the spine. Same said for my knees, muscles built in that region will be protective. I must say that since I began lifting a year ago, my joints feel a ton better. I quit taking my heavy-duty pain med to focus on building muscle, and the muscle I have built has helped. It just takes me a whole lot longer to recover from weight training than it does for someone else due to that joint pain, and I could really use a push to help recover (especially from beloved squats).
I went to my Dr. and explained to him what was going on. I explained that I see people around me, my age and older, playing softball and volleyball and having a good time. I want to join, I want to be a part of it, but I know that I'm either in too much pain in my joints, or I'm too dizzy from my medication. It's depressing beyond words. So I asked him about a small cycle, as opposed to our pain management plan (i.e. Oxy). He cited a prostate risk, said it would not be beneficial for me, and wrote a script for PP to get me out of his office. I don't like where the pp's led me the past two years, and certainly don't want to be doing that for the rest of my life.
I have no idea if I posted this in the right place or wrong, and I'm sure I'll get flamed for something I missed or am doing wrong, but I really want an educated opinion since I can't seem to get it from my physician. Hope this wasn't too long or posted in the wrong place, and thanks for everything.
