Nandrolone for tendons

[dec11]

Dec Im sorry I didn't put my stats down first, I thought I wasn't going to get much help but some of these posts have been helpful, especially scotchguards post, and don't worry I am definately not going to run twice as much test as deca lol.

Okay so here are as much as I can give you for my stats.

Age 26
Body Building for 4 years
weighing 220lb maybe just over that now
Height 6ft 6"
I don't know my body fat percentage sorry

Anything else, just ask..

P.S. I appreciate everyones help, I am here as I would like help from people who know what their talking about, not just from some guy in the gym who doesn't seem to know what their on about compared to some of you guys.

I don't have any knowledge of eq though, that I must say and will read into it.

good job.

running more test than deca is a myth, as long as you have supplementry test of, say 100mg pw going in (most would do 250mg pw), you shouldnt suffer any negative libido probs from the deca.

Tendonitis is a real PITA to get rid of. My tennis elbow (lateral epiconylitis) took five months to fully resolve. Now I'm dealing with it in my thumb/wrist on the same side.

The only real cure I found was time. Rest, icing, heat, and NSAIDs like Ibuprofen will relieve the symptoms and speed healing, but ultimately it's a time thing. Ultrasound can really help once you are back to full range of motion and minimal pain, however do not use it if it is flared up.

Regarding using Deca to treat it, don't. If you use any steroid to treat it I would go with Anavar. The side effects are much lower, and it has the same result. What you are looking for is a boost in collagen synthesis. Deca, EQ, and Anavar all do that. It is due to a boost in progesterone and estrogen. Test will not counteract the Deca in this way, because test will in fact aromatize to estrogen. The danger is if you are taking an AI that is dosed too high and you are dropping your estro levels too far. Then it could be an issue. You will also get some rise in free DHT from test, which will compete with progesterone at the receptor, but the amount of test will determine the extent of this competition.

The big thing is that I would not try to built strength actively while still in the throws of recovering from tendonitis. This is a sure way to hurt yourself worse, because you will increase muscle strength in areas where the tendons are already marginalized. If you just want to heal the tendons you could try running Anavar at maybe 30-40mg/day for 6-8 weeks while keeping your lifting the same (do not try to add strength and avoid exercises that cause pain). There is no guarantee or scientific studies that show that this will work. There is lots of anecdotal evidence that it will, as well as scientific backing for the processes involved, but no studies which directly link it.

BTW, I would avoid cortisone injections if I were you. They may make it feel better for a time, but they may also lead to you doing more than you should and causing a downward spiral of reinjury. You are only supposed to have them a maximum of three times in the same location as well. Cortisone injection also precludes the possibility of using ultrasound as a therapy. You can do one or the other, but not both.
