Test Flu

[MontBlanc Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close MontBlanc]

Alright bros,

I started my cycle which consists of
525mg/wk Test p
350mg/wk NPP
25mg ED DBOL

I havent started Dbol yet i wanted to see how my body would react and man was that the right choice. I started early last week and since then ive only gotten two day of lifting in. I get intense flu like symptoms, the whole 9 yards. My boss even sent me home one day last week because he said I looked ill and by the later part of the week I couldn't even get out of bed. Ive been living off ibuprofen which lessens the symptoms and during the weekend i pretty much took it easy and stayed in bed. It seems the day after I pin is when its the worst. I wake up in the middle of the night with drenched sheets due to excessive sweating. Ive heard of test flu but is it usual for it to last this long?! I'm thinking of switching to a different brand of test p. And run that for a bit until i feel comfortable and get the npp back and throw in the dbol finally. What do you bros think?

I think the "prop" and the "Phenylprop" is definately the cause. The propinate ester is known for the "Prop fever".
Should get used to it unless your gear is very high in bacteria or some other contaminate.

MontBlanc,
I was doing 800mg's of a test blend that gave me incredible night sweets and flu like symptoms, I ended up having to stop. When I did, so did the symptoms. Your doing 875mg's I don't know how many cycles you've done, but try backing down and see if that helps. You may be over doing it with to much. JM2C

hey mr big,
Im assuming u meant 500mg not 800? and 875? u meant 525? Yea i think i am over doing it a bit but i wanted to keep test to nandrolone ratio in strong favor of test in fear of deca dick. Maybe ill clock it back

No I meant 875, your doing 525mg/wk Test p and 350mg/wk NPP together. The NPP is contributing to it also. I think if you were doing just the 525 of test you wouldn't be getting the symtoms.

I know a guy who took 100mgs. eod of that prop. and it took him around 2 weeks to get used to it.. Alot of guys get that from prop.

I'm doing 300mg's of prop and 400mg's tren e with no flu symptoms, I'm in to it 2-1/2 weeks now, everyone will react different to different amounts.

when you say "the whole nine yards", do you mean diarrhea and vomiting? if so, it isnt the test. also, your sites are ok? so signs of infection or chance of dirty gear? just wanted to make sure we cover those bases...
like mbig suggested, when i've gone through this, i'm usually good in a couple of wks.

Hey brothers,

MrBig, right I didnt even think of the npp. Yea your correct, then you my friend are one of the lucky ones.
mbig, thanks for the duration i think ill be one of those guys prop is killing me.
sam, well i dont get diarrhea or vomiting i figured my case was the worst. My sites are ok they do swell a bit but ive been known to swell up and go down over 3-4 days. Alright, imma keep pressure forward with the cycle and just load up on ibuprofen. (4 pills are doing it, but still sweating like an animal)

Once again, Thanks bro i was really second guessing myself. I really appreciate the help

yea, if its test flu, you just have to push through it until your body stops reading the test as a foreign substance that needs to be removed. hang in there!

For the night sweats I put down a towel on my pillow and a beach towel down on the bed, that should help alot.

This sounds like me, every cycle no matter what I get Test Flu. It takes me a week + to get through it, I have found that sweating it out like a fever works for me. Lots of cardio. I suffered really bad on Lixus labs test 400 I suspect it was high in bacteria. Suck it up and youll be fine
