EO reaction?

[GreenGains]

Hi Folks,
Currently writing this at 4am as itching has woken me up at night.
Little over a week into my first cycle. 400mg Test E with Ethyl Oleate. and 20mg Anavar.
Intense itching in hands and feet, noticed 2 days ago . Taken an antihistamine to see if that helps.
Is EO the likely cause?
Whats the next plan of action, everything I've stocked up on is from same supplier? And I bought a lot! They clearly stated they used it. But they're a reputable brand on here, so didnt worry about it at the time.
I've used another brand, for ancillaries, and they sell no EO, will order from them, but it may take 10+days to arrive. Should I continue 2/3 more pins with the EO and just deal with the itching until then? What will I do withlovely steroids I bought? I'm sure not everyone reacts like this to it
Any help appreciated

I think EO reactions are fairly uncommon, and your reaction could be to anything in the gear, not just the EO. Or it could be completely unrelated. To me, a week is a pretty delayed response if it's something you're allergic to.

Drop the var right now and see if it stops.
Those are some oddly specific and possibly scary symptoms.
Intense itching in the hands and feet, with higher intensity at night, is textbook cholestasis.
Not trying to scare you but var gains aren't worth whatever this is.

i came here to warn about cholestasis. my wife had it during pregnancy, and the doctor reacted very urgently to it. something about the gallbladder in her case.

anyways. as far as the leftover steroids, you could resell them. send me a dm maybe ill buy em off you

So I took the antihistamine and it really calmed down, which makes me think it's the eo. But I've booked a liver blood test to see. Didn't think I'd have to get bloods done this quickly in but hey better safe than sorry.
If it's the Anavar that's cool I'll drop it, though I genuinely love the look and feel one week in on that. But it would save me a ton of money buying new gear.
If it's the EO, that will be an expensive fix, and regarding selling my stock, I would absolutely consider that. But as I'm in Ireland it may be difficult. Might approach some of the freaks in the gym see if they want it

Antihistamines are also used to help the nighttime pruritus (itching) from cholestasis.

Those 3 sentences and the thought process are almost as worrying to me as the symptoms you shared.

Ok, thanks for your input! I don't see how those sentences are worrying personally, as I'm getting bloods, I'm willing to drop the offending compound, whichever it may be. And I think it's normal to be frustrated that I may have wasted a lot of money.l mean its four figures worth!! I'm not made of money.

I really appreciate your help though. Thank you. Will follow up

I say it is worrying because if your bloodwork comes back fine, I’d be worried you'd stick with the full cycle and just take antihistamines for the itching until the end of the cycle. I am not a doctor and just matched symptoms, but there is no telling what else it could be that even a doctor may overlook.
What reputation/policy does the source you got this from have in terms of repaying people for bad gear and testing compensation?
There is no reason this should be a week one issue of your first cycle.
I doubt it is serious and pray it isn't, but this should at least be a sign to test that gear and to find another source if your health markers come back good.

New gear already sourced and purchased from where I got my ancillaries my man! Thank you for your concern.

I suppose it’s a long shot that you got any bloodwork done BEFORE you started this cycle?

 

[GreenGains]

You can check actually! Go check out my first cycle steroid cycle post! Posted them all there and my liver was literally perfect! Which is one reason Im doubting a week of Anavar destroyed my liver.
I know I'm new, but I'm doing this as best I can and trying to be smart.
