HGH and CTS

[bigforyouben]

I was taking 2-4iu GH (QSC) for about a year. I would get occasional carpal tunnel symptoms of numbness and tingling in my right hand, but pretty much only at night. Recently it has become more persistent, in my thumb and first two fingers. I stopped HGH two weeks ago but the symptoms remain. If the CTS really was caused by HGH, how long should it take for the symptoms to go away?

It’s possible you were developing CTS anyway, and HGH just exacerbated it. So “going away” would bring it to a non-HGH state but you’ll still have the syndrome.

I had CTS that was made much worse by taking tesamorelin. After stopping it would return to baseline within a week or two. I eventually got the CTS release surgery and now I can take all the HGH I want and don’t get CTS symptoms.
