Sorry for lack of updates....current situation just had knee surgery and kids summer started so been laying low. Come Monday I'm going to try to get back on the bench at least and work upper body best I can. No heavy weights on lower body for 4-6 weeks.

Currently running primo depot (Metenolone enanthate) at 200mg/week, test cyp around 300-400mg/week

@Beowulf2Actual Wishing you a speedy recovery bro!

This might be my last update for a while. I had my knee surgery on the 30th and around the 2nd I started feeling really weird. Shortness of breath with hardly any exertion, heavily sweating, tingles, very fatigued.

Long story short, went to yhe ER sunday, blood clot in my lung from the surgery. And sent home with blood thinners

Saw cardiologist today and have a echo tomorrow and get to wear a holter for 30 days. I was diagnosed woth very very mial mitral valve prolapse almost 20 years ago and I get checked every 5 years or so. So, part of this is to do with that and part is the clot (thinners). He wants to also make sure my MVP hasn't changed and/or turned into AFib. I dont think it has but it's worth a check

Naturally the doc wants me off the testosterone. I guess it makes sense since I won't be able to donate blood and the volume and high RBC count that naturally comes with gear for me. I usually have to donate ever 8 weeks.

I dont know what to do other than follow the cardiologist orders. A stroke or heart attack isn't very high on my fun list but going back to less than 250 testosterone is going to suck as well....that's about all I make without TRT.

Open to any thoughts on the topic but it's looking like I'm hosed for about 6 months

Sorry about the blood clot, but getting off Test so fast is not good, you should still be on TRT and you can donate bro just dont say it
minimum stay on 125mgs test, very bad for health to just jump off and PCT no go with your heart issue @Beowulf2Actual

I appreciate you taking the time to give your thoughts. Im a novice/intermediate at best and it's got me a bit freaked out. So I appreciate the knowledge from.those of you woth years and years of this.

Rgr that. Ive been reading various articles and seems like if I stay around 100 to 125mgs a week like you said, I should be ok.

So I'm not going to bleed out if I donate blood? Lol. Im actually going to try to find the blood mobile in the morning before I take thw first dose of thinners since it's been almost 2 months.

Do you think running just cyp at that dose I should be ok? And drop the primo completely till I'm off the thinners?

You're not going to bleed out more than normal bro lol
you can just give blood at any bank and not tell them on test, same with blood work
test cyp 125mgs /week 2 injections splits is fine bro
and drop all other gear just self TRT

AND you need to keep log going tell us abou trt and your recovery process @Beowulf2Actual

Thanks bro. I appreciate your feedback a lot. They dont even care I'm on T anyway. I do the therapeutic phlebotomy anyway. Never been on thinners before so I was worried they'd freak out that I dont stop bleeding or something when they pull the needle.

I'll maintain the ~125mgs/week and no other gear and keep you all posted.

Aside from that, the workout part is going to be a struggle getting back into. I can't do a whole lot without just being absolutely out of breath. Ive been trying to do some light swimming laps in the pool for now and some walking. May try some bike riding or light rowing tomorrow as well. It's really just hit miss on how my body responds to the exercise for now. Super weird feeling

thats a good day bro @Beowulf2Actual how about food what you been doing?

 

[Beowulf2Actual]

thats a good day bro @Beowulf2Actual how about food what you been doing?

Been lazy AF. Not gonna lie. Pasta, steak, more pasta. Hard to be motivated right now. Very fatigued feeling. So what's the experience of people donating blood on a thinner. I need to do at least once while on these because I was already high on RBC and hemocrite.

Thanks for keeping me accountable. Im trying to get moving again. Hoping to find out any limitations soon. Nuclear stress test next Friday to check foe any blockages. That should be my last test for clearance
