Hey, what's up guys? I was diagnosed with some bulging and protruding discs in my back, and an injury to the cervical of my neck, about 7 or 8 years ago. For those of you who are familiar with back injuries, my bulging discs are located at L4 and L5. I have to say that I do consider myself pretty lucky, as I can still workout and I don't normally have bad pain. Also, I don't take any roxycodone or anything for the pain either, like half the world seems to be taking nowadays. It's weird, but the times that I do have pain are when I'm sitting or immobile for too long. When I'm active and doing things, I don't get much pain at all.

I can pretty much work out normally, but there are some back exercises that do bother me if I go too heavy, such as upright rows and deadlifts. Especially when doing upright rows, I'll get pain right in the area where my lower traps meet my spine, which I guess is where L4 and L5 are on my spine. Just to be safe, I use moderate weight for those exercises. But, it seems as long as I have support from a bench, I can workout normally and heavy.

I've heard and read about Nandrolone Decanoate being prescribed in the past for things like osteoporosis, back and neck pain, joint pain and collagen synthesis in joints, improving bone thickness and density, among others. And the best thing about Deca's benefits, is that they are said to be achieved with just a small dose of 50mg of Deca every 3 weeks.

Now, I have used deca before, but never by itself, and never in such a small dose as 50mg every 3 weeks. When I was using deca, I did get some relief to my back and neck problems while working out, and just in general, but I'm not sure if that was just from water retention from the deca, or the other compounds I was taking at the time. Or could water retention helping to lubricate the joints, be the factor that accounts for alleviating the pain and helping with back, neck, and other spine problems? But then again, that wouldn't account for deca apparently increasing bone density, or collagen synthesis in joints either.

I wanted to get some honest opinions and thoughts, about using a small amount of Deca for my back and neck problems, especially if there's anyone who has similiar back or neck issues and continues to workout and use gear. Also, do you think that just 50mg of Deca every 3 weeks would interfere with certain cycles? For instance, I'm planning on running a 16 week high dose primo cycle soon, and I'm wondering if even adding a small amount of Deca would interfere with obtaining that true lean primo physique, that the compound is known for. Thanks guys!
