Ultram & my Liver

[Dmitri Diablo]

A little history: I feel as though I've been beating the crap out of my liver for the last few years. It seems I had to have a drink every night, to help me go to sleep. Back in November, I got really sick with a lung infection. I took that time stuck in bed as a chance to dry out. I had 2 drinks on Xmas, and 3 on new years eve. Nothing since.

Now, the only thing I worry about, for when I start my first cycle, is the Ultram I am taking for my shoulder.

Is this combination going affect my liver?

stay away from orals then on your cycle

the tremadol your taking also has tylenol in it so i would avoid orals like gixx stated

Oh damn! This shoulder is killing me!

So what's recommended then? Any Suggestions?

What happened to your shoulder? If that's hurting you can't give it 100% in the gym can you? If that's the case I'd hold off on anything until it's fully healed.

As they said.. no orals, your liver is under enough stress from the tramadols.. If you research and feel its right for you, look in to injectables such as Testosterone E/C/or P.

Partially torn rotator cuff. Which is why I want to start my first cycle... I've been told that if I can gain some extra muscle/strength, I can put off surgery, or avoid it all together.

I had no intentions of using anything orally. From what I've been reading, I think test c will be my friend!

Sounds to me like deca would be your biggest friend. It has done amazing things for my joints and a one-time shoulder injury. Test needs to be stacked with deca though.

Dr. Richard Rydze (former doctor to the Steelers) has admitted to off-label use of HGH for patients with partially torn rotator cuffs, tennis elbow, torn biceps and hamstrings, and Achilles tendon tears. He claims it's successful in speeding up the recovery. Might be worth looking in to.

** Upon further looking, I've found quite a few doctors who use HGH for treating these kind of injuries. Also, I saw stuff on PRP injections too which looks really promising too. You might want to ask your physician about these treatments. If he doesn't do them, he might be able to refer you to somebody who does.

Thanks for the info Honkey.

I have already received an injection from a Dr. It was only Triamcinolone. About a month ago, and nothing has changed for me.

On a side note, my wife works in a hospital pharm, and she did a little looking into the Ultram. As it turns out, it likely has caused my weight loss.
