Swollen (edema?) Ankles on AS?

[Dragon666]

Test Prop 100EOD / Masteron 50mg EOD/ 250 Test Enanth PW / DBol 20mg ED
On Week 4

About 3 days ago my ankles starting swelling up, and I have a nice round looking foot. There is some obvious fluid retention in my foot. Never experienced this on AS before.

Some research tells me it could be the excess water retention from the Test/Dbol, and/or a possible heart issue...

Anyone experience this before, can give me some insight?

sounds like you are just bloated.

I hope so. O.o

[gixxerboy1]

try cutting some sodium, drinking more water. Also you taking an ai?

[Dragon666]

Unfortunately I was informed my research chem supplier has delayed my package that was supposed to go out 3 weeks ago, with my AIs. *sigh* So no AI. Foolish for starting w/o them on hand is what Im thinking to myself now.

Yup thats bloat alright. Drink alot more water to help flush it out, and either compression socks or/and massaging it upwards will help the flow.

Also, upping your Mast dose to ED may help due to it being a DHT.

and Its most likely due to the DBOL. Do you really feel you need it? you are doing prop along with enth so you dont really need the jumpstart IMO. but then again, i wouldnt do DBOl cuz of hte bloating issues and estrogen issues.

The AI will help, but ^^ may be some other options you can try if the AI is takign so long.

And go with AR-R, they are fast the times i ordered it.

definitly stop the dbol...its not needed...I ran almost the same cycle in july...(short burst cycle)...

I ran
day 01,04,07,10, and 13 test en 300mg
days 14-31 masteron 100 eod...test prop eod
arimidex 1mg ed
days 34-44 nolvadex 10mg ed
day 34,37,43 and 46 hcg 2,500 iu's
day 40 hcg 5000 iu's

if i started to look bloated I would take 1 single diuretic tab and increase water consumption.

never start a cycle without planning everything out in detail on paper and then having everthing needed for your cycle....i purchase my cycles in reverse...I buy my pct first...any AI's needed second than my gear last...just my opinion...

That amount of water retention is really unhealthy (your symptom is called pedal edema, but could be caused from a variety of things). I'd at least drop the Dbol.

You might have lymphadema it's what those super fat ppl have hanging off there legs like an extra 30lb of strange colored crap..I got lymphedema when I was extremely heavy, not fat but 275 very solid so it's not just for super fat people..Of course I didnt tell my doctor I was on hormones and they might have mis-diagnosed it, maybe just edema from high water retention,estro retention from high levels of androgens..I dunno I got like blackened veins in my foot so you might wanna get it checked out if an AI or watching your salt intake doesnt help..

lymphadema is just poor circulation in the lymph nodes. Typically its a heavy person thing.
high estrogen decreases the circulation, DHT helps increase it. as for hormonal actions, there are other factors but thats a general explanation for AAS'ers

Update:

Took a single shot of 200mg Masteron the day of the original post, did three sessions in a FAR (Infra-Red Frequency) sauna, consumed more water than normal and dropped the Dbol. Today, the bloat totally gone, none in the foot, none in my ankles or lower legs... totally cleared up.

What is your bp?

[wmaousley]

water retention for sure, this is normal

[The Incredible Dump]

I think these guys are probably right but, swollen ankles and feet can also be a warning sign that you are dangerously close to a heart attack. Maybe go get checked out at the docs?
