You're 24 and on Doctor prescribed TRT at 200mg/week right out of the gate? I'd call your Doctor, yes - if he tells you to go to the Emergency Room, go.

Yeah he did. Same with my roommate who was got on 9 months ago. He took a prohormone and had low t. The office is closed right now. Its thanksgiving. I feel relatively normal right now except shakes when i get cold and maybe a fever. I dont have a thermostat. ive been reading online and people are calling this the test flu or some ****

Seriously, is the entire world on TRT? This is one of the things that scares me about PHs. Seems like everyone on here is on TRT.

Lots of people are on TRT today - some PH/AAS related and some not. Glad you're feeling better. If the doc said you should go to the ER then I would follow instructions.

I wasnt able to talk to the dr. THe office is closed today. If I never take another shot again will I need a pct to go back to my lvls from before even if they were relatively low

That 200 mg is the upper end of TRT and bordering on a cycle. You should have started at 50 to 75 mg injected every 3.5 days. After 8 weeks you run bloodwork to see where estradiol, free testosterone and total testosterone levels are. You also rate how you feel and adjust from there.

If you only injected once then PCT is not required.

There is a FB group called Testosterone Replacement Therapy Discussion that is run by TRT professionals. Go there and research before you get hurt.

Not common but it happens. It’s called “test flu”. If you think about what that did to your testosterone level for a minute-it sent it from low to super physiological level in hours. That’s a shock to the body.

Honestly if ur that concerned about what’s happening to you.... you should go to ER now... make sure to tell them the ENTIRE true story of what to are taking.... and then speak to your dr tommorow about PCT...etc.... end of story

Read this thread, specifically Spurfy's posts:



Obviously take it fwiw.
Interesting...glad he recovered in 4 days...

right now I feel pretty normal. I worked out and felt high energy. Maybe i recovered already? Do you think when I sleep tonight I could have those symptoms again?

I dont know. Spurfy claimed he feels crap the whole time he uses test unless he also uses torem as an ancilliary to keep his LH from being suppressed.

And then most guys who get "test flu" end up fine in a few days.

Well hopefully nothing happens tonight. If so i guess ill have to ride it out. Why isnt test flu recorded as an actual side effect. Because honestly i researched this before I started taking except I never ran into anything about "test flu".

The expression "test flu" would hardly qualify as a rigorous scientific/physiological term. Youd need to think like Spurfy: what are the possible physiological causes for the symptoms, and how are they being brought about?

Youre more likely, then, to find data on things like "CRH output" and "LH suppression" relations than woolly lay concepts like "test flu".

If you still have immediate worries about this, flag the doc and go to an ER. If you present in the right manner, theyll do a check of EKG, BP, CRP, etc and let you know within an hour if youve fukt with your heart.

What I’m waiting for is a response to why your “doctor” started you at 200 mg once per week. Again, this should have been more like 50 to 75 mg every 3.5 days.

I agree. My roommate was started on that as well. No idea why this guy does this

You also said your roommate had normal test levels and the doctor still put him on TRT? Also didn't you say you gave yourself the injection? Something's not adding up. I feel like you and your friend are not on TRT but just doing a cycle and injected 200 mg off the bat without knowing exactly what you were doing. No doctor would do what you described

lol guys .. dont scare this kid with things like "messed with your heart" etc.. dont listen to them - you will be fine. If your body has an immune reaction to the injection just stop injecting test and everything will be good (asuming that youre not on trt here and just injected 200mg test by yourself). one injection of 200mg of test wont kill you and wont harm you in any way. Just calm your head - and when you still have flu symptoms threat it like a flu ... go to see the doc next week if its not over.
