How did you look on these stacks? Any pics? No homo
(Warning, this is a 'Matt Canning' length response)
This may surprise you since I posted a few photos of myself on Getbig in the past, but I dislike having my photo taken because I don't think I am at all photogenic. Even if I had a photo of myself when I was in my prime, I’ve learned my lesson regarding posting selfies on Getbig. So sorry, no more photos.
The following is way more information than you asked for, but since there are likely many guys on Getbig who use PEDs including testosterone and maybe D-bol, I thought my experiences might interest some of you.
While I don't have photos of my physique in shape or not, I can tell you a little more about how my body reacted to these stacks. The first time I was on D-bol and test, it was because our family doctor recommended it.
At 16 or 17 years of age and just 1/4" shy of 6' I weighed in at 144 lbs. this was up 18 lbs. from the previous year. I was healthy, but thin as a rail despite having a huge appetite. I was a physically active swimmer, runner, and equestrian…riding western.
This is when our family doctor recommended and prescribed 5 mg D-Bol daily and a testosterone injection weekly. Probably less than a year later, my weight increased to 180 lbs.
My weight stayed constant throughout my 20’s. When I was 29, I quit smoking. Shortly after, I did my second stack which lasted several months. I worked out at a local Portland gym, Knott Street Center which was where Mike Christian trained at the time. I have never been particularly strong but during this time, I pushed some relatively heavy weights. In three months, my bodyweight reached 225 lbs. At last, I was the buff man of my dreams. LOL!
Following this time my weight settled in at around 190 – 200 lbs. My workouts were consistent from then on. I ordered D-Bol illegally off the internet which I used for a month or so until the supply ran out. From this point on until I was in my 60’s all I used to keep fit were legal supplements and a ton of protein powder.
Sometime shortly before I retired, my urologist did labs and my test levels were very low. I don’t remember the exact numbers. He prescribed testosterone cypionate at a modest dose. At first, I was on Testosterone Propionate. It is a cream one rubs into their skin. My nipples got sore but not much else was happening. My doctor prescribed testosterone cypionate injections. He had me coming into the office for an injection every three weeks.
Note: when I was mid-puberty, I contracted mumps which “went down on me” and killed my right testicle. This may be why I have hypogonadism. My libido has been shitty forever.
I have no issue with needles or injecting myself. I asked the doctor to put me on once weekly injections which I could do at home. We played around with the strength responding to what my labs indicated worked best. One lab test came back that my total test was at 1350. The doctor freaked out and lower the dose. I thought it being that high was super. LOL!
I think it was in 2009 that my PSA was out of whack. So, the doctor did prostate biopsy. This is not a fun experience. I had a couple more biopsies after that. The last one indicated I had prostate cancer. The doctor took me off testosterone immediately. He gave me several options which were everything from ‘watchful waiting’ or chemo or radiation or take the damn thing out, which is what I decided to do.
My PSA numbers dropped to where it was undetectable. After about a year, I convinced the doctor to let me go back on testosterone. My PSA, which was then being checked quarterly remained undetectable after going restarting TRT. Now do labs and see him once a year. I need to watch my hematocrit which was in range but on the high side.
Currently, my prescription is for 75 ml once a week. The pharmacy switched from a ten ML vial to individual vials which are a pain to empty without wasting some test. Not sure why but the last couple of times I filled my prescription the pharmacist gave me dozen 1 ml vials. I am currently injecting one vial a week.
Two weeks before I do labs for my annual check-up, I stop injecting test. I also stop injecting HCG but continue with the Anastrozole (both of which I get from an online pharmacy and which I do on the QT). Currently, my weight hovers around 175 lbs. I feel great and my off the rack wardrobe fits well. I will be 78 years old next month.
