I get none of that works great for me I get little to no sides I always run my like this 120/90/60/30
Make sure you drink plenty of water after taking it and don't take it on a empty stomach or right after you eat makes sure it's about 30mins after a meal, also taking it early in the day is best could even split doses, I've found that all these help with sides hope it helps
Nolvadex and/or Clomiphene did the same thing for me... I had "tracers" at night and morning, as well as limited field of vision and blurriness. I also had extreme photo sensitivity, and I could barely look at anything white without hurting my eyes.
What dose are you running?
60mg.....at this point I would have been better off coming off without anything as crazy as that sounds. Between the headaches, blurred vision, upset stomach, body aches etc... it wasnt worth it.
