That's some scary stuff brother. I wish you all the best of luck.

Yeah bro I have left ventricular hypertrophy which is basically an enlarged heart.

I had a fucked up EKG, got worried and went to the doctors for an echocardiogram.

Turns out many athletes have enlarged hearts due to the increased cardiac output and it is perfectly common in bodybuilding

@ Syrax : Im am very glad to hear you recovered well and are going strong. I'm lucky to have been diagnosed early on, I was initially going to run Tren Ace with Test Prop but now I'm kinda glad I didnt.

@ benlash74 : Thankyou, hopefully I can get back on track soon.

@ hatefactory : Doc was pretty sure it was due to a Fluid build up inside my Pericardial Sac, symptoms fit the bill, which is treatable. Its just a tad nerve racking being a heart issue.

I would maybe drop trt down to 100 mgs. E/W. HCG can give you palpitations and racing heart as well at the doses you will need for pct. then get you heart checked and go see urologist or even a fertility doc and let them set you up. You may very well just have an infection! An infection of the heart is more common than you may think. Did they do blood work to check your white count?

GOOD NEWS!!!! So...I went back to the hospital and had a visit with a different doctor... Its not my heart... (thank fuck).... i was misdiagnosed yesterday, I'm not sure how but yeah... not happy but I am overwhelmingly relived.

They gave me another chest X-ray and ultra-sound and it turns out I had a build up of stomach acid which in turn was making my stomach bloat and cause sever discomfort to my lower chest. The pain from this was insane for what it was, the gave me some pain killers and some gooey smiley shit in a small cup and within the hour the pain was dramatically reduced. Im still experiencing some discomfort but it should subside with the next week and I can get back to training.

This being said, it was a false alarm. However the likely hood of something going wrong with your heart while using AAS is very high. This has been a serious reminder and wake up call for me.

Thank you to everyone who shared their personal experiences on this thread.

Good news bro

but honestly who the fuck is the dick that fuvked up and misdiagnosed your condition in the first place
dam could've went the other way

probs as soon as you mentioned juice use they put you in the self inflicted bin

good to hear your well bro

They never actually said what the issue was but merely hinted. Yeah I'm still having some pretty bad stomach pains just banged down some Mylanta and Buscopan along with some panandine. They pretty much just gave me the shoulder and sent me out on my way. No medication was prescribed, I'm sitting in my GPs waiting room because the pain kicked up an hour ago.

This however I doubt was related to AAS usage.
