- Thread starter irishchamp
- Start date
good to hear.
still waiting on the total testosterone results.
I ended up giving blood on Thursday, I did the double red cell donation. that was really interesting. they hook you up to a machine, drain a couple pints of blood, separate out the red blood cells with a centrifuge from the plasma and then put the plasma along with some saline equal to the volume of red blood cells back in.
nice thing is that you don't leave short on blood volume, just red blood cells. I hit the gym later that day and felt pretty good.
I have noticed the last two workouts that my ability to push through the burn seems a little bit diminished.....

yea, they told me the same thing, also told me to not lift anything with the arm they drew from.
I didn't listen. [}

I did take it kinds easy in the gym though.
on a serious note, I would have called it quits if I felt bad weak, sick, light headed etc.

Very interested in this. Is it a straight up donation or did you have to pay? Is there a specific name for it or is just called double red cell donation? They run tests before allowing you to do this?
I've seen it happen, someone dead-lifting, funny but definitely scary. no heavy exercises for me on a fast or after donating blood.
straight up donation, takes a little longer, that's about it. they even use a smaller needle, 18g vs 16g, still damn big, I watched her put it in, like watching someone stick a knitting needle into your arm!
they just asked me when I walked in, I scheduled to do a whole blood donation. I don't think all places have the equipment. If you go to unitedbloodservices.org and schedule an appointment I believe it gives you the option of double red blood cell donation if its available, I think they abbreviate it, rb2x or something like that. you could just call your local donation center too. they asked me all the standard questions plus pricked my finger, that's about it. I believe the requirements are no different than a standard donation, you can only do it half as often though, 16 vs 8 weeks.
good luck.
ps. this is just speculation but I'd think it's a more appropriate donation for someone on anything as it puts your plasma back, that's where everything is floating around isn't it? you keep your elevated hormones and they don' t have to discard or filter them out..... not really sure what they do to blood, I assume they remove all the male or female hormones in preparation for the transfusion shelves.... who knows, just thinking out loud I guess.

When was your last pin before your blood test?
Pinned Tuesday, blood labs Wednesday, Total Testosterone blood was drawn Thursday afternoon, still awaiting results on that.
Thanks. I'm just tryin to judge how I should dose my pep test based off your results. Which really sucks that I have to eye ball and use guess work for what I'm puttin in my body. If pep would've dosed his shit correctly would make this a lot easier. Lol
Prob gonna buy more test e. Elsewhere too.
Thanks for posting

You should really get your own blood work ..
@03xx52 I will when I start my cycle. But the op got his test the same time as me. So it's prob gonna be dosed the same.
Well I'm assuming I'll have an actual Testosterone # tomorrow so based on that I think I think you can get a reasonable starting dose, then with your own labs at around 4-5 weeks you can fine tune things.
Still waiting on my Total Testosterone results.......
had a great workout last night, 365x6 and 315x6 on dead-lift with ease. I would have gone heavier but I had a rib out that was killing me. I'll try for 385 or 405 next week.

Subscribed ... Curious to see your results. From what I'm reading it appears you are seeing some strength gains and that's a plus.
feeling fairly strong, not many all time records but stronger than I've been in quite a while. not much weight gain sense the first month. hoping to change that soon with the increased dosage.
Still no lab results....
hit blood for the first time during my injection tonight. not while I was aspirating but when I pulled out I got a little squirt. surprised me. stopped bleeding almost immediately though.
wish my labs would hurry the f up!

Haven't checked out this thread in a little bit but seeing as I just did my first pin of pep's test e last night I'm really looking forward to seeing what numbers you get...
Looking at the stats you previously posted there's no doubt that what you've been pinning is legit.
"LH 0.1 LOW 1.7-8.6 mIU/mL
Estradiol 127.5 HIGH 7.6-42.6 pg/mL"
Idk that much about aas pharmacology but these two values really stand out to me as LH decreases as natty test is suppressed and this number is damn near zilch. Also estradiol shoots way up when high levels of aromatizables (like a gram of test a week) are used w/o an ai.
If you're still pinning a gram/wk and haven't gone back on the aromasin I would start again at 25mg eod imo
