Shortness of breath on Deca

[Poco32]

Anyone had breathing issues on Deca?

I'm running 750/wk with test right now. I can't even squeeze a fart out without getting winded. Worse than when on tren.Haven't had bloods done yet. Just wanted to see if anyone else has struggled with this and if there were any suggestions on cause.

What's your bp?

Haven't checked it

[Poco32]

How much test with the deca?

600/wk

[Big B]

600/wk

So 600 test and 750 deca?

That's 1350/WK by the 2. I'm sure your BP is up causing you to lose breath...

Never run it that high before. Never had an issue like that.

Haven't checked it

You are running that much gear and haven't checked your BP? Can I be in your will? Only if you croak quickly though. If you are in a wheelchair drooling on muffy for a couple decades I will pass.

Brother, do it smarter. Blood work and monitoring yourself.

I took several BP readings over a 10 minute period and they average out about 120/60

It's been a while since I looked at the literature but AAS stiffen the vasculature. This is because the smooth muscle in the veins and arteries have androgen receptors. So they get hypertonic and cannot function properly. Most people don't realize that the vasculature pumps to aid in circulation. So on high doses the heart has to pump harder leading to higher O2 consumption and less cardio fitness. Over time other things happen and other things can cause acute shortness of breath. If you drop the dose by 2/3 for 10 days it should get better. Better yet drop it to 100 mg/w Test adn it should resolve faster.

You should also donate blood. Chances are your hematocrit is high which can lead to more stress on the heart and organs and lead to shortness of breath. Another thing is water retention. Clean up the diet and drop sodium and that should help as well.

Very good info! I haven't injected either for about a week. Will dose lightly until issues subside. As far as giving blood, I can't. I received two units of blood after a tear in my esophagus lining in July that caused me to lose a lot of blood. Last time i checked my levels were still a bit low but that was about 8 weeks ago.

I took some cialis last night to relax the smooth muscles in my arteries. It seems to have helped some. I'll keep a check on BP daily. It was good today but may have been helped by the cialis.

Got to remember, the higher the test dosages, the higher the sides will be on the other compound(s) mixed with it..
