stiff joints

[LocoLeprechaun]

Started test enathate a week ago 500mg on day one three days later 500mg more my question is my joints are so stiff and full of water I can hardly walk has this happened to anyone else and what could it be from?

[flexer01]

yeh......dont worry. if your having lots of trouble then you can always add a touch of deca to your ethenate. worked for me!

my problem is though It hasnt even been a week since I started there is no way they test could be kicking in already is there or iis this some other side effect aslo using t-3 could this be the culprit bu tIll tell you what this qv is sitting like a rock it hurts days after should I cut it with some b-12 will that help or just deal with it for 12 weeks

never heard of joint pain on eth or even t-3. I just finished test eth with t-3 and no problems. Also like you said i highly doubt its the test already. I say wait a week or two and see how you feal. You could just be sore from something you did not related to lifting/as usage..

gearhead how did u do your t-3 this is my secound time using it the first time I ramped up and down evenly but I read an article about how your thyroid shuts down real fast so I tried their suggestion and did 25mcg the first day the 100mcg the secound and then the third then thats when I started having these pains so now I backed it off what do you think? It could very well be from something else but I just want to make sure.

Since you are introducing new stuff into your system, you may be dealing with an initial water bloat. It's completely normal and should begin to fade out within the next week or so.

Is there anything I can do about the bloat I have been using 1ml of ldex since it started I was thinking of using some ephedrine to help get rid of the water. My jonts are so sore I can barely walk up the steps and also I have alot of pain in my lower back I have had water retention before but never had this kind of joint pain.

yea that kind of jump in t-3 could be bad and shock the body a bit. I found that running t-3 above 75mcg my body didnt like it at all. What i mean is i was sweating like a fean,fealt crapy(like the flu kind of fealing) and overall mental ability was strained(couldnt think straight). I ran t-3 two ways. First was the triditional ramp up ramp down. The second time i did it mostly the same dose except for the first day wich was 25mcg for 4 days than went up to 60mcg for a few weeks. I backed down the same way. Basically its the same ramp up/down method but faster ramp up than a long level period than a fast ramp down. That way worked better.

thats what I am going to do now I ust hope I didnt screw it up already by doing the 100mcg so fast yhea well live and learn
