if its not an injury u should start feeling good in 3-4days. chomp on the fish oils, Fluids and I love Vit C 1g.
also pick up some Taurine (otc-cheap) (helps keep the cells w/fluid).

all good suggestions. use ice too, 20 min on.


no reason to stop using your AI completely. it is beneficial to use an AI, bulking or cutting. it'll help keep more of your test from converting to estrogen, keeping more test in your system. like ODB said, cut it back, maybe to EOD. everyone responds differently to the aromatase enzyme. some need more. you obviously need less. you have to play with the dose to find out what works best for you. ideally, blood work would tell you where your estrogen is

Having water in your body doesn't mean you won't make as much lean gains, actually being able to push yourself harder from the water serving as cushion might help making better gains. And water retention mainly depends on your diet not on anything else... if your diet is clean, you'll stay clean...(at least it did for me? sorry if i'm wrong)

and sam made a point..

Thank you very much JM for the feedback, and I'll do EXACTLY what you guys say. I'm in pain right now. It's not my shoulder anymore...it's my knees. So, I'm going to get the supps. and get my estrogen back on the rise. I start working out again next week. I just hope I can rebound from this. (Jointwise) If I didn't have you guys, I probably would have fought through the pain not knowing what's causing this and injured myself. So, thank you guys a lot.

12.5 mg of Arimidex? The typical dosage lies between .25 mg and .50 mg ED or EOD. Im curious to find out what factors influenced you into such a high dosage?

Aromasin...not adex

Whichever, lower the dosing you'll be fine lol
