Asthma and test E

New member
Anyone on here have asthma? Could my asthma be getting worse because of my cycle? I'm on test E 300mg/week. Since starting I have put on on 6.5kg, and am frequently out of breath and with low oxygen saturation. However I do have a cold and am coughing up mucus so it might just be that (test flu anyone?).
 
i have asthma and never experienced this.
Could be several things.

I doubt I've put on enough muscle in 3 weeks that it's putting pressure on my chest, so it should mostly be water right? How bad is your asthma if you don't mind me asking?
 
Ah, youre the guy with the bloods thread.

Man you got lots of things possibly contributing here. Keep in mind your rbc is low, could be exasperating things.

Coming down with sickness, think's its the test e.

Makes sense.
 
It could be from all the weight. I was getting hella fatigued throughout my workouts while on msten and I think I was also having worse asthma at night.
 
At what point/how does the body get used to the extra weight? Does pulmonary function increase up to a point?

Not sure man. Do you have one of those steroidal inhalers? I stared using mine more frequently and that seemed to help

At what point did you get better? I'm on oral prednisone and salbutamol atm, nothing else helps. Considering stopping the cycle
 
The answer is yes this can exacerbate your condition. I have exercise induced/reactive type asthma and when I am on a dose over physiologic levels it definitely affects me. There are many possible explanations physiologically as to why this could occur. Could be inflammatory mediators, fluid retention, small amounts of oil making it to the lungs and then causing inflammation, etc.

if it makes it so you can’t function or even lift, you deff need to ask yourself: what’s the point?

Unrelated to my asthma during exercise when I was on tren I could barely walk up a flight of stairs without getting winded. The strong compounds seem to significantly decrease exercise capacity, aerobically speaking. I feel that it is a separate issue on top of having to deal with asthma, but I could be wrong and they could both be related.

I'm strongly considering it. I last pinned on Wednesday, how long until it is out of my system? And would I need to PCT if I'm on my 4th week?

But that's tren and it's very different from test. There is nothing that says test should make it harder to breathe, the other way around if anything.

You probably have a little test flue. I have no idea what you're talking about here, pct on week 4? You use nolva if you get gyno perhaps but why would you ever pct after only 4 weeks? Especially with test (e).. your cycle has just started to kick in. I'm not gonna tell you to continue a cycle but if you decide to pct cause you're out of energy then you better just quit the cycle all together. I don't think you've really read up before starting this cycle and now you're worried. This I why you should always have the knowledge before you start a cycle. If it is test flue nobody can tell you when it stops, it's a normal flue but it's called test flue cause we tend to get sick easier in the beginning of a cycle. One day, one week, it's impossible to tell. My bet would be 3-5 days.

Please refer to post #11 for my opinion directed at OPs question. You quoted an aside comment.

I've never had this bad a flu though. It's spread to my lungs as I'm coughing up mucus. On day 6 and it shows no signs of stopping.

Wouldn't I have experienced these symptoms earlier on in the cycle if this eas the case?

Honestly, it’s hard to say in your specific case. I’d say the risk does exist, and if it continues to a point you cannot tolerate, perhaps it would be wise to consider discontinuing. Or even lowering the dose and see if that changes anything.

Most important is to make sure you have your asthma meds (including inhaler) nearby at all times.

Normally for me I've got the flue after like 2-3 weeks. The feeling I get after the first day on a cycle or is that I get warm and with test a bit energized. Wether it's placebo or not I have no idea but I believe even test e will have an effect during first shot (not muscle building but energy)

So the real sides tend to show mostly around week 3 for me id say. I just think you're sick , you feeling any better at all?

Yes much better, not on prednisone anymore. Still more out of breath than I'd be off cycle though.

I have asthma not sure I mentioned that.. It's been very little as an adult though. It's very common to get sick on aas and I think since we know we're putting something bad inside our bodies it's easy to feel (more) if that makes sense.
