    annoying facking migraine, how come nobody else has this problem?

    I had to stop my first cycle due to heavy migraines, here is my thread about it:
    http://forums.steroid.com/showthread...cle&highlight=


    headaches went away one week into PCT, I was making great progress and was in peak condition but I got facked with migraines. after 4 week PCT, I decided to start my second cycle (I Decided to give Slingshot System a try since i want to compete).

    now it's day 3, I only had 100mg of prop(on Day 1) + 30mg Dianabol ED + 50mg Proviron ED, and I had an incredibly sick migraine for last 4 hours. and it's becoming worse ...


    How come I can't find anything about relation between migraine and steroids on google? looks like nobody had experienced it with such a severity.

    I did MRI last time and Doc said to stop the cycle since it increased pressure inside my brain. I have a really high pain tolerance but this migraine is not tolerable at all ...

    What Can I do? Shall I drop compounds one by one and see what is causing these headaches?

    well that is part of the reason we say only run 1 compound for a first cycle.

    I know it now but i think it's easy to see that it's from Testosterone, since I ran an anavar only cycle before and I had no problem.
    and the previous cycle was test + primo + proviron.
    I will drop proviron and will see what happens. if migraine happened again it's from test for sure.

    maybe it the proviron. Maybe the primo or the test no way to tell.

    I would run a low dose test only and see what happens. Do you monitor you BP?

    yeah I do monitor my BP and it's not from that.
    I'm not running primo so it's not from it fo sure.

    but I have no visual symptoms whatsoever so I guess it has nothing to do with Scintillating scotoma. i had it for 10 hours yesterday until i fell sleep. Pain is on the right side it's completely disabling. It's weird because last time they started from week 5 of my cycle, this time on day 3.

    I too also, and have always have, deal with headaches while on cycle. Unsure what causes it but id suspect either high blood pressure (which i currently have but am treating) or elevated hormone levels. Ive come to learn that increased water intake and tylenol can be very useful.

    Have any of you migraine sufferers ever tried Oxygen therapy? I have read that using an oxygen tank for 10 min or so help a lot of migraines. It is also supposed to be a great hangover cure.

    I have recently had to stop my cycle because of a similar problem. I went to doc and had MRI... nothing wrong with my brain apparently. My doctor said that although he would love to give the headaches as a reason to stop taking steroids he didn't think there was any connection (I stopped cycle anyway... figure best to sort it out). Mine were slightly different from what you discribe, they are brought on only during my workouts, but can be crippling... i.e. week before last I went to do legs and on my last rep of my first set of squats I had a sharp pain in my left side of my head. It was intense at the time and I had to sit down for a minute or so, I stopped the session and went home and had a headache all night and into the next day.

    My doctor is recommending I see a physiotherapist, he believes that the headaches are caused my a torn or strained muscle in my neck/head which is referring pain as a headache. These types of headache are very common ('tension headaches' account for 90% of headaches apparently). You can apprently not be aware of any pain in your neck and just get headaches. Anyways, I will be going to the physio this week and see what can be done about it. Hope this helps.

    doesnt sound like migraine tbh mate. any migraine ive had has been fully within my head not one area.

    ive had the following symtoms, nausea, depression, dizziness, temporary loss of sight, visual disturbance, mental confusion, loss of coordination and severe headache.

    i can have all these at once or afew or maybe only one of those symptoms in any one attack. i usually feel down in the dumps for a few days before migraines strike
