Steroids and Migrain headaches

[funk_d]

I was reading the instructions to my sustanon 250, and it said people that have migraines should be monitored.... Does anyone know anything on the topic, cause I get them bad and im pretty scared I was gonna start in 2 days

[TKO]

I got real bad ones from Dbol, but I don't do Test, so I wouldn't know bout the Sust

[funk_d]

TKO did u stop use or continue??? did u have a history of them?? and if so were they worse than when u werent on the Dbol??
Shit man thats some scary shit...

[bigshug]

sust didn't give me headaches and neither does enant.....anadrol on the other hand......wouldn't call them migraines, just "walk around pissed off all day" headaches

[funk_d]

does anyone have a history of migrains though?????

[tinytim]

dont know much about this subject but smoe headaches come from being dehydrated.... i know on D-bol you should be drinkine h20 like a fish .....hey it might help the head ......;0

For Me, generally I only get headaches from gear that has a tendancy to raise my Blood Pressure, i.e. Tren, D-bol, Drol. I have a history of Migrane Headaches Bro, and i get a few here and there. But, i dont think it has much to do the Test....

From my experience:

I did sust for 12wks and had a headache for 6 wks straight. NO lie. The last six.

My theory is it's part of that sust flu mess. Which the sust block cortisol and then there's nothing stopping errant electrical impulses form the base of the neck to the frontal lobe. Asprin, acetometifen, won't do a damn thing. You'll have to either stop taking sust, suck it up till the headache subsides, use imitrex, zomig, or a central nervous system depressant. Good luck you might need it.

I do not have a history of migranes but test gives me off and on headaches. I dont know if they are migranes but they are REALLY bad. All I want to do is lay down but I cant even fall asleep because they hurt so much sometimes. Also they are generaly at night.

I do have a history of migraines, I got them a lot as a kid, and I only get one once in a while now.

Migraine headaches are not a simple headache; they are crippling and they can literally make you want to die just to get rid of the pain. It is not at all uncommon for migraine sufferers to experience vision, hearing, or equilibrium loss during an episode.

I will often hear people say something like, “I have such a migraine today”. When the fact is that they would likely be balled up on the floor in the fetal position hoping for the sweet touch of death to relive them from the pain if they were truly suffering from a real migraine.

I have been given prescriptions for just about everything including off-label prescriptions of everything from Dilantin to Librium to Mellaril; none of it ever worked (well the Mellaril worked but it also chemically lobotomized me). Then one day they just went away, although every once in a while I will still get one – it is scary shit.

I don’t think I ever got a migraine that was induced by any anabolic or androgenic compound. In fact, the great frequency of them stopped right around the time that I started using steroids, although I think that is just a coincidence.

i hear when you get the headaches to increase your h20 intake and a lot of time it can help reduce or get rid of the headache.

Naw man, I never got headaches before the Dbol.....I still continued the dbol, but the headaches were not every single day.....they'd hit 2-3 times a week

To help reduce or get rid of a headache:

Do not smoke and avoid second hand smoke.

Apply a small bag of ice to the spot from which the pain is radiating.

Or the other extreme, use a heating pad, hot towel on the area and the base of the neck.

When you feel a headache coming on or during an episode. Make an L shape with your thumb and press firmly on the back of the neck where the indenture is on the bottom of the skull. Sometimes you can feel around for the exact nerve that is involved in the pain.

Get enough sleep daily. If a headache comes on go to sleep to avoid it. Meletonin eases headaches and is a side-effect free sleep aid.

Also the corticosteroid prednisone stops a headache in it's tracks. It's not as effective while on a AAS cycle and may be catabolic to muscle but it stops a headache. Day 1 60mg , D2 50, D3 40mg, D4 30mg, D5 20mg, D6 10mg and your cured. If the headaches aren't severe 5-10mg of prednisone will cure a headache in minutes.
