I was doing 5mg a week and had diarrhea for a couple of days after injection. I injected 10mg last night and the side effects are brutal for me on waking up: heavy sweating unless im in super cold AC, diarrhea of course, hurt stomach, a bit of a headache. The main issue being the hurt stomach and diarrhea
 
Sorry, but in what timeframe did you take the 5mg..how long?

Did you do the normal trials titration and begun with 2mg?
 
So you were having undesirable side effects for multiple days after pinning at 5mg then decided to double your dose. I'm not sure if there is even a question here.
 
"This low dose is giving bad side effects, let's 2x it."

Not the brightest crayon in the box, are they?
 
This does sound like a good recipe for how to put yourself in hospital with dehydration from taking GLP's, all you need to get there for sure is add vomiting to the mix.

I do not understand any part of the reason for increasing the dose when side effects were already a problem. The only sensible course of action is to stop it until the side effects settle down, then restart at a lower dose. Or in this case maybe don't restart until you have read a lot more about them and have some idea of how to use them safely.
 
I'm a bit confused on why you would DOUBLE your dose when you were already having unpleasant side effects on half of it? I don't understand.
 
Yes, I'm going to actually go back down to 2.5mg like I started in the beginning. I don't think I had diarrhea on that dose, but I did at 5mg. 10mg is unbearable side effects but I barely have any desire to eat
 
Say gang, I was shooting up ghk-cu in my testicles, and now they are swollen and bleeding. Im doubling up the dose tonight for science hoping that cancels out the bleeding at least, wish me luck!!!!

Some of us warned you in an earlier post not to titrate up on dosage so fast but you didn't listen did you? You got what you deserved. Bet it sucks to be you right now!
 
You were warned, MULTIPLE times not to do this. If you’re not going to take advice from the people on this forum who have actually spent time reading and have real-life application experience with these peptides, why do you even post? Your reckless behavior will get you in a bind in a hurry.

This is a recipe for some unpleasant sides as that’s a huge jump. Keep in mind that reta has a half life of about 6 days, so at only 5 weeks in and steadily increasing as quickly as you have, you haven’t yet felt the effects of a steady-state dosage. Most recommend holding a dose for 4-5 weeks before titrating up again.

Exactly! Sorry to say this but he doesn't seem like the sharpest tool in the shed for sure!
 
You’re spot on, @CMA Pooky. This might be the first person to actually get under my skin on this forum. Every time someone like this shows up in the ER because of reckless behavior like this, it just puts the spotlight more on the industry and makes “crack-downs” more inevitable. This user needs a special forum banner that says “don’t bother. Won’t listen to advice” or something like that.

I’m running a little short on sympathy, but I do hope OP gets to feeling better soon and has no life-altering repercussions.
 
I was not actually joking about it being a good way to end up in hospital. The most common reason by far to end up there when starting glp's is the combination of nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea causing dehydration . And it happens a lot with grey peptides either because of getting mixed up about doses and accidentally giving yourself 2 or 10 times the correct amount, and/or the lack of medical advice on side effects and how to deal with them. In this case apparently you were warned about dose escalation, the problem with these medications is the week long half life so if you do have a dose causing bad side effects it can take a week or more to get better, so if you cannot get enough fluids in the only way to fix it if anti nausea medications don't work is a iv line for fluids in hospital until the drug reduces in level.

I can understand why people like this get under your skin. I'm going to ignore any new posts from him from now on. If you don't listen to feedback, that is your prerogative, but then don't complain later on if there are repercussions.
 
I think this guy is just here to rage bait

His intro says he had been reading for a month. Surely anybody that had been reading this forum for a month would know better.
