Pain Under Big Toe and GH

[LordKraven]

Hey gents. I started using 25mg MK-677 with 600mg Huperzine A daily starting November 8 2017. Initially I got really sleepy during the day and my right arm and feet would go numb at varying times. The lethargy went away as I got used to it and numbness dissipated once I addressed electrolyte imbalances. For the last several weeks I've had pain under my big toe (right foot) and am wondering if this is the cause. I did not think of it until now because around that time I also had an ankle sprain (right foot) and started soaking my feet and getting rid of dry torn skin under my feet with a pumas stone. Anyway, I still have ankle pain as well, I have flat feet, and xrays showed no damage so I'm left asking more experienced individuals. I am hoping that it's not the MK/Huperzine combo but if it is then it shows how strong this research chemical really is.

EDIT: It's the 1st metatarsal not under the toe.

It's unlikely but not impossible... But, I'm still leaning towards unlikely.

My guess: ingrown toenail.

GH can cause joint issues though for some. My ankle felt better on it, rarely have trouble anymore from it. My knees, on the other hand, didn't tolerate it well at all. Went away after some adjustments though.

Thanks for the reply. After reading your comment I realized should have worded it better. It's not under the toe it's self but the first metatarsal. No ingrown nails or anything of that sort.

Ah, okay. Then yes, it really wouldn't surprise me if this is causing the issue. Although many claim it helps with joints, this not always the case. It sounds like it's in and around the joint in that toe, small area in there.

You can try backing off the dosage a bit and see if that helps.

I can see GH/elevated IGF being the cause.

I have an old injury to my left thumb joint. It never bothers me until I'm on GH or Mk677. Within a week that joint starts to ache and stays like that round the clock until I come off the GH/MK. It's just annoying more than anything but it happens every single time.

I got a painful "ball" at the Tarsal/metatarsal junction twice. A month into starting hgh and when I increased my dosage. Both times lasted about two weeks then went away.
