I have a weird problem, and I wanted to ask you guys for advice.
I finished a 14-week cycle about two months ago...during which time, I gained about 14 pounds and never had any joint problems, etc.
For PCT I ran ATD for a month, Nolva for a month, and then I'm on Fenugreek/DHEA/MACA/HGW and the usual high doses of fish oils now.
So...firstly (slightly OT) I had no hairloss until the ATD...which also seemed to dry me out. I also ran transdermal 7-OXO during PCT to boost thyroid function (I ran T3 on cycle), and this also dried me out.
Second...about 10 days ago I began experiencing a BAD pain in my left elbow whenever I clenched my fist or extended my arm. At first I thought this was just a "slept on it bad" thing. But it didn't abate. AND I haven't been training for a bout a week, taking a short recovery break.
I should mention that I play guitar professionally, and that means anywhere from 1-5 hours per day (using the arm that hurts).
I've been using VPX Glucosacream 3X a day, and it hasn't helped.
I'm wondering a few things:
1. Did I perhaps grow muscle that my tendons cannot now comfortably support without androgens? (I didn't EXPLODE, though, I made nice, slow gains).
2. Did my PCT perhaps so destroy the estrogen in my body, that I hurt my joints?
3. Maybe I have a chronic inflammation from reptetive stress (i.e. guitar playing)? I've never heard of this, but curious.
And any suggestions on pain management/healing?
Am I smart to stay off the weights like I am?
