Thread: Tingling, itching feeling

How tall are you bro?

Your doing a TRT or a cycle. If your doing a cycle your test is too low for you to get any results. If youre just doing TRT why Deca and Arimadex ( I hardly doubt would be necessary for such test dosage.)

Man your doctor rocks!

I get this on my upper back and neck.
Its like a very itchy feeling almost like pins and needle but not if you get me ?

I am 5'11". Sure, the doc isn't giving me any mega doses, but to be honest I ran the same cycle minus the AI and aminos and got great results. My wife would freak out if I went over 200 lbs, 170-180 is good enough for me. Anyways, the TRT seems to be working fine but I want to know what causes this feeling. Again, it only happens when I first start my workout and reminds me of taking niacin. Damn weird feeling. Pins and needle feeling, not so much. Best way to describe it is like when you take too much niacin.

Teszt dosage should be a little higher than the Deca. That is unless your "doctor" wants things this way. Sounds like a hot flash associated with fluctuating hormone levels. Not all that uncommon. It should decrease as your body adjusts to all the substances.

LOL why would she freak out? My wife used to say the same thing when I was skinny but she loves it now.

Well i have been getting similar feeling while on cycle.
I always thought it was the acne.

I'm saying that's what they always say when you're skinny. But just weight until your a beast. Don't hold yourself from greatness. At your height 200 wouldnt be huge. I'm 5'7 and I'm 220 and I don't even feel I'm there yet either.

They call that itchy feeling prickly heat...as the sweat comes out it sord of bubbles popping in the pore until you really get a good sweat going...some say its because of drier skin during thw winter months...that's just what I read on it....nothing to do with your test

Thanks Cutright, that makes sense. It is much drier during the winter months and my hands and arms seem to be a bit drier due to the weather. It was just odd that it only seem to happen the minute I started my cardio. As soon as I would start to break a sweat, I would feel it.

It wouldn't be acne, that is unless you can get it on your hands. I felt this from my hands up to my arms. Right now acne doesn't appear to be any issue. Last time I ran something similar, acne didn't happen till post cycle anyways.

As far as the wife, I don't think it is the size that would bother her, rather the idea of using it to get big vs. a legitimate medical issue would bother her. The doc prescribed this based off of my lab work. I wish my doc would hook me up with more test, but I would rather be safe than sorry and trust my docs opinion. I would never consider going over 400MG test/week without having a doc check my blood work and get me any ancillaries needed. Good news is that my normal HGH levels are higher than usual for someone my age, it is the low test and high e that is messing me up. Regardless, it is nice having a doc help instead of dealing with underground/illegal sources, not to mention I get pharm grade stuff and don't have to worry about what is in the vials.

I'll agree that the test should be high than the deca, but I have run it before without issues and got great gains. Maybe I had the low test back then and didn't know it? Hell, for all I know I could have shut my self down, but I doubt it based on the amount and length of cycle. But I am no doc, so who knows.

Thanks for the comments everyone! I just wanted to get some feedback. I was wondering if it was something in the scripts or just a freak incident. Hormone balancing could be the factor too. Last cycle I ran I never used any AI, but I also didn't know I had high E to begin with.

Yeah I'm 5'8" and almost 225lbs with about 12%. Looking to get down to 10%. Now that I'm older (mid 30s) I realize it's better for me to be on the shorter side as my appearance is much more jacked than taller friends. Of course, my condition of muscle dysmorphia keeps me hungry and unsatisfied that I'm muscular and jacked enough. haha. Gotta keep striving. Nothing quite like having my wife stare at my body in awe!

Sounds good Nuklear - I'm still after the gamma ray induced metamorphosis that Dr. Banner was "lucky" enough to achieve.

I know what you and OP are talking about. I get this feeling on my face just beneath the skin. I call it andro itch lol. I get it most from EQ. Especially when ramping up doses.

Muscle dysmorphia is the best condition to have, it keeps your motivation going. Remember complacency is the worst enemy.
