Alright guys so last weekend I suffered Atrial Fibrillation. I basically started having palpitations (like I have a couple times a week that last a couple seconds) but this time they never stopped.
45 minutes later I went to the ER, stayed overnight and in the morning the cardiologist had to put me asleep and restart my heart with the defibrillator.
Now I wonder if this could be linked to steroids (enlargement of the left ventricule or anything else). I’ve been blast and cruising moderately since 2012 and i’m only 28. Before the event I had been cruising from september to november and then raised my test to 440mg EW. Plan was to use moderate test and eventually EQ this winter. So I was on week 5, and 4 days after I raised my dose to 660mg and changed brand at the same time (2 injections in as I pin EOD).
After the event, I of course immediately dropped my test. I will stop it for 2 weeks or so and then jump back on 30mg EOD to not feel like complete shit. I self-prescribe my TRT like a few others on here but now i’m thinking of talking about my use to my doc to try to see an endo. TRT is really not popular here in Canada like it is in the States and is not well known, that is why I always hesitated talking about it to my doc.
Other points to mention, I only take 1 coffee a day and moderate alcohol on week-ends (I had 6 drinks before the event). I however am very stressed recently to the point of having a lot of anxiety (my heart has been feeling squeezed from morning to night for a few weeks). My job is the main cause for this as I’m on the edge of my chair for the whole 8 hour that I work basically. Also note that in the past, I had palpitations on tren but only when I went over 350mg / week so now I never go above that (might be linked to anxiety too). Clen also gave me heart palpitations in the past and once my heart almost stopped for a couple sec so stimulant use is done for me.
The cardiologist checked me and said everything looked fine. My heart seemed a bit large but i’m a fairly big guy (not compared to you) so she attributed it to that and to lifting. She advised me to stop using… After I mentionned to the doc that I was on self-prescribed TRT he quickly said that it this FOR SURE WAS THE CAUSE of my problem. I thought he diagnosed me a little bit fast.
Since then I am scared as shit and do even more anxiety now because of it, i’m affraid that it happens again.
Any opinions on the possible cause?
