Thread: HGH and full body itching???

Ok so my father is in his mid 50's. 5'11'' and fluctuates between 240-280lbs depending on if he's dieting and working out. Best I've seen him in the last 10 years is about 240lbs 20ish % bf. Used to be a pretty jacked up dude when he was young. Star athlete, strong as an ox etc....


So last summer I got him on some gray top hgh which is what I was also running at the time. We were both running 5iu per day split morning/afternoon. We both loved it. Only variable was that my dad was not on any form of AAS. The MF-er dropped 25lbs in 8 weeks side effect free, without even trying outside of his normal lifting and mediocre diet....


So fast forward to now.....he stopped the grays due to ex-wife draining his bank account.....finally saves up a few bucks and tries out the Eurotropins. Same dose, 5iu only this time he decides to pin it all at once in the AM. Within weeks he is texting me saying his hands and feet are tingling. I tell him it's normal and as long as it's not hindering mobility or ability to function then it's fine. He starts telling me he thinks this stuff is either wayy stronger or he is reacting weird from it. Another few weeks goes by and his ankles are swollen (edema) and his feet go numb constantly. I tell him to back off the dose and try 2.5iu.


So he does and another couple weeks he's telling me he barely sleeps because his entire body itches to the point where he's drawing blood from itching head to toe. I strongly recommended he stop altogether for the time being. He has, and side effects subsided within days.


Anyone know what this could be? Can't find a thing about it on the internet....


Blood sugar? Nerves? Water related? Any idea would be helpful.

It sounds like he is having an allergic reaction to something used in the production of the Eurotropins. He could try a different manufacturer of GH to see if that's the case.

Hmmm i'd like to think that's not the case as there should be no contaminants or residual substances left from the manufacturing process. He was fine with the gray tops at the same dose.....i'm thinking it has something to do with the fact hes dosing all at once instead of splitting.....

It doesn't take a contaminant to cause an allergy. People are allergic to all sorts of pharmaceuticals. I know he probably is not allergic to the actual GH as it is naturally occurring in the body but it could be one of the enzymes used in production.

Allergies get worse over each exposure so be careful. He could try splitting the dose to test the case. If he still has the itching or it gets worse it is most likely an allergy. If splitting the dose helps then he is good to go.

Send it to me let me see if it mekes me itch
