Breaking out in what looks like hives 1 week into cycle
Hi all, made this account to ask this serious question as ive exhausted all other forums posts on multiple fronts;
Im 25, 5'8 165. first cycle. taking 50mg dbol/day and 250ml test e 2x a week for 8 weeks.
The "hives" started in the first few days and I didnt think much of it cause they are were only noticeable in direct light and werent raised at all. this is day 8 and they have started to spread everywhere. below my chest my entire stomach and sides are covered. some raised more than others. now they are starting on my back and arms. some itching beginning as well.
Researching did me no good except one post that mentioned that it could be a initial sign of liver damage or liver failure. I find it hard it believe it would affect my liver that bad that fast though. Has anyone experienced this before?
Im trying to figure out if its the dbol or test and also if i need to stop completely or maybe see a doctor first. I want to continue the cycle and I really havent experienced any other negative sides but at this rate ill probably be covered before I know it. maybe drop dbol for a few days?
Anything helps. thanks bros

RustyhookerPut down the steroids. Pick up the food ! Wth?
Gives lead to anaphylaxis. If death isn't enough here....
I went to doctor and it was confirmed as a mild allergic reaction. Nothing bad will come of it if i continue on the cycle except to spread to other areas. I have hydrocortizone and am using it on affected areas. She prescribed prednisone but I didnt fill that script, just the cream. Thanks for the insight all.
Everywhere means from head to toe with my assessment. Torso areas are what I see posted. Could it be heat rash? Do you work outside? Have you used new laundry detergent, etc? Any new drugs/foods you takin, in addition to the hormones?
If they are starting to itch, OTC remedies like benedryl (antihistamine) may provide relief.
This is the second post I have seen, recently, where hives have been the subject.
+1 for focusing on solving the problem
yes i did spend a day in a lot of sun at the beach the day before the cycle began, its possible that I wouldnt have noticed and my roommate mentioned it could be heat rash, doesnt explain it spreading though
Keep track of it and let us know when it subsides..
You shouldn't be running anything until you've built something resembling a base naturally.
what would u consider a base? i started at 118 and went to 165 and im 12-13%bf
At your height another 20-30lbs at a similar BF%.
We recommend test e/c only for a first cycle for a whole host of reasons not least of which is if you run into trouble you can just stop (PCT if needed) and see if your symptoms clear up. That said it sounds like it could be an allergic reaction to something in the test. Check with the source as to what carrier oil and solvent they use and then research allergic reactions.
Given your age and your stats I would stop this entire cycle right now and focus on eating enough food, getting enough rest and training to get your weight up. Aas at 165lb is not going to do anything for you. You simply do not have enough of a base to hold onto any of your gains. Here is a forum I wrote on this - https://www.eroids.com/forum/steroids-qa/steroid-cycles/my-ruminations-o...
Work hard and in a couple of years you may be in a position to run a cycle. If you do you may have figured out if you have an allergy to a carrier oil/solvent so can avoid it. And hopefully you will stick around here and use the forums to research and come back when you're ready with a proposed cycle.
if i did stop today being only 8 days in how would my PCT change? I have adex clomid and nolva on hand
Don't worry about PCT. 8 days and you don't need it.
Hives could be allergy related. I would recommend seeing a doctor and telling them you started taking new supplements for training.
GnarkillThis is why you take only test on first cycle to see if you have relations. I'm not telling you what to do but if it was me I'd drop the dbol for sure and if nothing changes then drop test as well. If it is liver damage then the sides of your eyes will be yellowish. That's just my opinion I would wait for someone with more exp. To answer and listen to them there are a ton of really educated vets here good luck man
