First Tren Cycle Issues
I'm doing a mini cycle, 8 weeks of TrenE/Test/Dbol (at 250/200/210 mg/week). My 1st cycle with TrenE. The sides are profound: 1) disturbing dreams, 2) wakeful sleeping, 3) aggression, 4) difficulty breathing.
These aren't marginal, in me, they're severe. I have difficulty getting a deep breath when I'm sitting perfectly still. In fact, I wake up, gasping for air. I think I have this bronchial constrictive reaction so strongly that it reduces my blood oxygen level and contributes to a feeling of lethargy and fogginess. My first few days, I had a bizzare constriction at the base of my throat, as if I'd bruised my throat above the sternum. I also experience acid reflux and heartburn and often have the sensation I'm about to throw up or regurgitate.
My wife's immediately noticed my increased aggression and irritability. I'm generally easy going and now--pretty much ready to attack someone twice my size for being polite on a Tuesday. It's affecting my work, I'm short tempered and less tolerant of peers' ubiquitous incompetence (see what I mean).
I eventually started sleeping (more than a few hours), after about the 5th or 6th day, and the bad dreams abated after about the same amount of time. But in the first week I woke virtually every night terrorized by a nightmare I couldn't remember.
Is it worth it? I'm only 3 weeks in and I can't say. I wanted to post because I've read 100's of posts on the topic, many Vets warning Noobs about Tren but none articulating why or how to deal. Everyone who now does Tren was once a noob to it.
What might be more valuable than a blanket warning, is for Vets to illustrate what others might experience and, most importantly, how to cope.
For me, the shortness of breath is almost a deal breaker, it's so intense and uncomfortable for me. The other sides are manageable: The heartburn is difficult because I'm nauseous so often, it curtails my desire to eat. The sleep issues abated for me after about one week though I don't feel really rested. And the aggression is very real and must be carefully managed. You've got to talk yourself down from your anger and be aware that you're unnaturally reactive and volatile--you will have violent fantasies! Be prepared: Laugh it off! And apologize daily to your wife, whether you think you need to or not.
