Test flu/cold like symptoms

[Jacked Turtle]

I've been reading some things here and there about "test flu", any truth to it?

Has anyone not gotten ill the first week or so after jabbing test?

Maybe the problem lies with test prop but not with test e?

I've already had the flu jab 7 weeks ago, so I should be fine but just want to know what I can do to avoid it or deal with it when I start my test e cycle soon, thanks.

Yes, "test' flu" is real. AAS often causes the body to react as though it is being attacked by a virus. The bodies' white blood cell count increases in order to fight the "virus" and, in turn, flu-like symptoms develop.
But, no, it matters not what the compound is - be it test' prop, test' e or anything else.

Exactly, it can happen with any ester. It’s a reaction to a foreign substance, some brands of gear can be worse depending on the solvents they use and how much of it as well.

If it continues you may just be sensitive to it and one of them people who’s body just won’t accept it, or you’re using shit gear.

I've heard of guys who are so given to "AAS flu" that they had to stop using AAS.
Now the question is; is that a bad thing or a good thing?

 

[dylangemelli]

yes, its very real... not everyone will experience it but it is possible... any ester of test could cause it... test is test

 

[Jacked Turtle]

Well hopefully I don't get it, will it go away after like a week or so and then my body gets used to the drugs?

It does pass for most people, yes.

I never have but some do.

yes the person isn't really sick.. the body THINKS it is sick

it makes sense that 'test flu' goes away after a few pins as the body realizes it isn't really under attack. but if the issue keeps happening you should change brands

Have the symptom's subsided, Jacked Turtle?

I'm starting the cycle tomorrow (Monday), I just wanted to prepare myself lol

Oh, now I see. Duh!
Yeah, you won't likely encounter "AAS flu," for it is a rather rare occurrence.

In order to get test flu you need to run a lot of gear. I am talking like 2-3 grams of anabolics per week.

 

[Masonic Bodybuilder]

I have never had it happen. Not something I would recommend worrying about.

 

[Fella Finn]

For what I've seen and read it usually tend to happen primarily with higher doses.

 

[S187]

Happened the day after my first pin of 250mg test e, lasted about 24 hours. Tired, lethargic, feverish, like a cold/flu without the nose & throat issues.

2nd jab same thing, but only lasted about 12 hours.

3rd jab no issues.

Were all three injections drawn from the same vial, S187?

 

[S187]

Yep, same vial.

This is my first cycle, and started just over a month ago @250mg per week of test e. On further discussion with other AAS users, I have increased the dose to 500mg per week (As of 7 days ago). I did not get any of these flu symptoms with 125mg per jab, just after the ones I mentioned above @ 250mg.

 

[S187]

Yes Eddie, same vial.

Originally started at a conservative 250mg per week (125mg e 3.5d), no negative reactions/symptoms. On further discussion with other AAS users, they believed for a first cycle, 500mg pw minimum was more suitable.
