Possible Slin Side effect?

[x|Fluid|x]

I had been running slin for about 3 weeks...

A bunch of little red dots started to accumulate around a pimple that I had on my arm, then it spread down my arm, up my neck, on my face, to my other arm, down my lats..almost everywhere! It looked almots like excema(sp?). I stopped the slin for a week, and took some allergy medicine..now its starting to clear up..do you think this could be because of the slin, or most likely due to something else?

I found this on RXlist.com. Hope it helps somewhat.

Local Allergy: As with any insulin therapy, patients may experience redness, swelling, or itching at the site of injection. These minor reactions usually resolve in a few days to a few weeks. In some instances, these reactions may be related to factors other than insulin, such as irritants in a skin cleansing agent or p.o. injection technique.

Systemic Allergy: Less common, but potentially more serious, is generalized allergy to insulin, which may cause rash (including pruritus) over the whole body, shortness of breath, wheezing, reduction in blood pressure, rapid pulse, or sweating. Severe cases of generalized allergy, including anaphylactic reaction, may be life threatening. In controlled clinical trials, pruritus (with or without rash) was seen in 17 patients receiving Humulin R (N=2969) and 30 patients receiving insulin lispro (N=2944) (p=.053). Localized reactions and generalized myalgias have been reported with the use of cresol as an injectable excipient.

How long have you been using it at 10IU's? I am getting ready to start after I get back from company training.

I was running 10iu's for about 2 weeks

the last week before the rash, I was doing 10iu's in the morning, and 10iu's post-workout.

Good results then? I dont think i will do the morning regimen. Post workout for me only untill I decide. My biggest problem is that I am cutting right now and dont want to gain really any bodyfat. I have read that slin works for this I just need to exercise complete control over my diet.

Great results, I loved it! My strength didnt go up very much, but my muscles just seemed alot fuller, made me look alot bigger.

I did get some fat around my mid-section, mostly my love handles, but not enough to worry about.

How much weight have you gained Fluid?

[x|Fluid|x]

I actually didnt weigh myself, i was going to wait one more week...but just by guessing, I would say about 5lbs.

has anyone else gotten the side effect from slin?

Brah, Slin does play around with your hormones.
I got killer acne. Never got any acne on my cycle, then when I started slin, breakout!

My friend started slin 5 days ago, he started at 188 (4%bf), is now at 194.
bf unchanged

i hate to say it but in five days, your friend did not put on six pounds of muscle, maybe 2lbs muscle, 2pounds water, 2 pounds fat, probably more fat than anything.

it is hard to notice it at first, i gained 8lbs in my first 2 weeks of slin, I am the very skinny type, and it even put fat on me.

Would adding clen or eca to mix help any with the fat.

id add clen maybe, but not eca around slin shots, caffeine has been show to decrease insulin sensitivity.
