took some new pics...

WeirdAl · Dec 13, 2002

Took some new pics, and posted them in my pic thread in the member's pics section. Not a big change, only 8 weeks from the last, and about the same weight. These are a little more clear, and am basically using them as before pics because my 200mg/every other week of test cyp shouldn't have really kicked in yet (if it does at all).

For the lazy:

...pics look good esp your back...why is it that you are taking cyp at 200mg every other week if i may ask?...

WeirdAl · Dec 13, 2002

thanks! dr prescibed for low (free) test levels. Along with my low test levels, my BUN (blood urea nitrogen - indicator of kidney function) levels were high, so the doc would only go with 200mg eow until he can recheck and make sure my kidneys are doing ok. I've researched a little, and BUN levels are directly proportional to the amount of protein in your diet, but I'm trying to drink even more water, stopped the creatine (hard on the kidneys according to the doc - creatinine levels do correspond to bun), and have been taking cranberry extract capsules. Hopefully will be moving to weekly 200mg shots really soon.

Checked out the new pics WeirdAl, lookin good Bro. Hope the doc ups the dose for you soon. Has it started to shut you down yet? maybe it won't at that dose?

WeirdAl · Dec 13, 2002

Thanks Badger! I'm going to really press the doc on upping it - I could feel my test levels going down before my 2nd shot. 2 weeks is just too long between shots imo. I don't think it's shutting me down, but I'm not really certain.

Hey bro, the pics look good. I read you decribe yourself before (perhaps your 2 year post) and I have to applaude an effort like that. Man, I would bet my life that all the hard work is worth it, huh? Be sure to post the afters and keep up the hard work!

Badgermoon · Dec 13, 2002

Damn, I wish I could remember where I saw the half life info. I seem to remember cyp having a 7 day (or there-abouts) half life. Therefore in 2 weeks the level would be down to 25% of the dose administered. That's why most people shoot it at least once a week. By the time the second shot has gone through a half life and has released 50% of the test, the first dose would have fallen off to 12.5%, so basically you won't get much higher than 62.5% of the administered dose in your system at a time. if I'm wrong on this, I hope someone will post and clear it up.

Yeah, that was the two year post. Thanks! Definitely worth the effort, though with my test levels low, I was not enjoying life too much. Things are definitely getting better, but I can feel my levels fluctuating with every other week injections. Definitely will post afters as well!

Yeah, the half-life I've seen is 8 days. From what I've been able to tell so far, it seems like it takes about 5 days after the shot for me to notice anything, and then I feel it for 5-7 days, then levels seem to fall off again. I definitely need to get to weekly injections. Hopefully the doc will work with me.
