Then back on a little bit of test for about 2months now, 800&1200mg /wk..  added mk-677 about a week ago. Only taking it I believe two nights in the day. Took it the first night gave me heartburn and think recently, skipped a night, then took it again about a day after during the day. So three dozens I believe 45 milligrams each.

About a month ago I started to come again thick of my fingers out of just my hand it's hot I thought it was just my hand coming back to regular size because I've been downsized for a while now, like in the 190s and started coming back up in size up over 200, then 205 210 and was holding steady at about 215, with only doing about a 20 minute back workout once every is maybe a 15 or 20 minutes or workout so weak and I probably pressing workout that went about 30 minutes and then a couple 10 minute chest pump workouts over about a 2-month period since March)..

Anyways... back to the forearm/hand, Girlfriends would notice it because apparently with the size increase that I had a p"Popeye forearm" and sure enough it was an inch larger from wrist to forearm. At first it looked like almost except until about the past week where I could notice some edema on the bottom of my forearm near my elbow. My hand however it got progressively worse. The top of the hand looks like it's broken with noticeable pitting edema (like 1/2"), especially the past week since adding the mk-677.

out of nowhere, Wake up Tuesday morning today is Thursday today is Sunday and walking to the shower I can feel my ankles jiggling look down and sure enough I have significant putting edema, especially on my right ankle.. then I wake up yesterday morning, Saturday, and I have massive edema on both legs, like elephant feet legs, to the point where I can't get my dress shoes for work on, and my right forearm had swelled up a bit like my left..

Oh, and I'd been nauseous off and on the past week. Thursday morning I puke a couple times when I'm brushing my teeth. Friday morning and puke and yesterday I puke.. I get to work and I'm 234/235, That's a good 18lbs in a week..

I remain nauseous all day and have significant lower back discomfort that started the day before. At this point I'm remembering Bostin Lloyd on Leo's podcast talking about his kidney failure and he felt like shit and was puking and nauseous all day before he finally went to the hospital, so I finally head to the ER (couple of my girlfriends, one nurse and a medical assistant, have been telling me to go to the ER for the past month).. get there explain to them situation run lab work, 2 ekg's (first came back a little off, something about potassium), ultrasound on both legs, and my left arm and neck to check for blood clots, and a chest x-ray, Drs we're suspicious of kidneys not functioning properly and or heart failure and/or heart attack.. 6hrs later doctor comes back and says surprisingly my labs came back kind of okay for my kidneys was nothing indicating kidney failure... GFR was good, my creatinine levels were a point or 2 high.

Then they call me back for one more test to check for the thing that was a heart attack marker in your blood that they didn't check the first time and that comes back good they said I'd be good to go. What was supposed to take 10 minutes and up taking over 2 hours, the nurse tells me they were just waiting on the doctor to finish up the papers...so I just left without my prescription for lasix (which I had to ask the 2nd Dr to write.. I actually asked for Bumex). *Went back today to get it.

*Oh! And my liver came back "ok" as well aside from my ast/alt were both a little high, which I knew because I'd also been running some methyl-test and Dbol in the mornings (forgot to me to mention, but it's kinda haphazard now that I have a lot of test cyp).

Anyone experienced that extreme hand/forearm swelling or sudden weight gain from mk-677??

Note* No at least that I know my kidneys and liver are okay, test those to 1200mg twice a week, and added insulin again (today) and make a run for 250 lol

This can happen with MK, extreme weight gain is very common. Happened to me too. I saw your IG video of your calves.
I second the heart checkup. There is a chance it put you in heart failure. You most likely have at least some left ventricular hypertrophy considering how much gear you have taken.

If I read you right you took 45mg. Entirely too much. Start with 10mg. A friend of mine puts on 5lbs after the first 12.5mg pill. About the same for me.

That's seriously a pretty damn heavy dose.   :-\

I'm a reasonably lean 225 pounds, at 6'1", on 125mg/week TRT and blasting/cruising on LGD-4033. (4 weeks on, 4 weeks off, 5mg/day.)  At this stage of my life, without any motivation to don the glittery thong and participate in a male beauty pageant, I seriously can't fucking imagine taking more than 600mg/week of test, let alone twice that much.  Like, what's the damn point?

I welcome the return of ESF but something is off. Almost feels like he loaned his account to Marty Methhead.

Holy shit someone else using an actual trt does. I laugh at the "trt" doses of 250 even 300mgs. Ya that's not trt.

Was using voice text. Didn't realize it was so fucking long lol.

Looked over my blood work and everything is fine except my ast/alt (145/92), and in the "Urine Dipstick" test for blood it was "moderate", when it should be negative.

Back down to 229 this morning.

That MK dose should read "25mgs", not 45. Haven't taken any since at least Thursday (think that was when I took it during the day? Maybe Friday??).

Go see a Doctor who specializes in cardiology, endovascular and/or peripheral vascular, and interventional cardiology.

Now.

Do not wait.

Is the test pharma grade? If UG, it may be that you have given yourself a blood infection. Basically this leads to a rapid growth of white blood cells, and that will lead to swelling. So, if you are re-using your needles or if your test is not clean, this is the possible result.

As for the dosage, damn you better be making good gains on that. I have seen powerlifters on 1000mg test (+ 75mg anadrol a day make insane gains). So that dosage test, combined with almost anything anabolic should be resulting in very good gains.

Also, how are taking the MK-677? Injection or oral?

Daily dosage is from 5 - 25mg's.

I've found 10 mg to be best to use longer-term.

20 mg excellent for a bit more size when training, but no difference in extra recovery or feeling of well-being.

One option is take every second day.

I use Alpha Lipoic Acid when using, as it's good for blood sugar levels.

I broke all my old PRs solely due to the MK. Simply because the extra water gives a lot of stability.

It makes you tired and gives you crazy appetite which is a plus for me.

The blood sugar issue is concerning, I don't think lipoic acid does much of anything  Berberine would be better, almost as good as Metformin.

Down to 226 today.. calves down to 18.75 & wrist. Down to like the 3rd hole on my watch band lol (I was on the very last hole).. appetite is like hit or miss. Haven't been getting hungry until later in the day, especially night time, past few days. Mornings I've been nauseous though still. Like this morning, I wake up about 5:30 and I drink now one of those big things of gatorade, like 32oz I think? Then about 7:00 just as I'm getting out of the shower I end up puking all/most of it back up (like 6x), well do whatever reason just puked up your orange Gatorade but not the 2 caffeine tabs, two Wellbutrin and clonidine I had taken maybe 20mins prior.. anyways.. same thing has happened the past couple morning. Maybe there's a stomach thing going around at work because a couple co-workers been complaining about nausea as well..
