HELP....Yellow eyes and pains from test? OUCH!

musclehealth · Mar 16, 2009

The last week I have has stomach and lower back pains when i was sleeping or late at night. This weekend I was out of town and my back gave out when I was getting out of a chair. I began to have nasty stomach pains, shortness of breath, extreme bloating of stomach. It felt like I was having a heart attack. I tried IB profin and aleve. Nothing worked. Today my eyes are extremely yellow and I have diahreha. The stomach pains come and go. I read that sometimes high levels of test can cause this? Im on 1g a week and my diet was complete garbage for 2 weeks because of my current

moving/living situation. (stressed to the max also). Any ideas guys? Thanks.

sounds like acute hepatitis infection. Would definitely go to a doc.. would stay away from pain killers i think they put more stress on the liver.

ericinbc · Mar 16, 2009

that would be your liver shutting down. i'd head to your doctor or preferably the er as soon as possible if i was you

Stop immediately and go to a doctor. Pray you don't need a new liver.

It's jaundice. While there is a chance that it's something serious, there's also a chance it's something not so serious. And it does not necessarily mean your liver is shutting down, or that you need a new liver. Jeez, you guys wanna give him a heart attack too?

GO TO YOUR DOCTOR

Hope he is scared enough to go and see his doctor ASAP. The sooner the better. This is something that should be asked by your MD. Listen to your body. It is telling you something is not right. Your symptoms is very concerning to me. I cant really help you here as for assessing or trying to diagnose what is wrong. My specialty is the mouth. Take care.

Bloating, pain in the abdomen, yellow eyes are signs that something serious is happening with your liver. Get to the ER now.

Exactly. You need to see the doctor. If it's something serious it needs
to be takin care of as soon as posilble before it does more damage
And yes he does need to be conserned.

sounds like jandice my friend, i recomend going to the er asap.

And don't take any pills before you do (go to the ER). No tylenol, no vitamins... nothing.

musclehealth · Mar 16, 2009

I cant go to the ER because I currently dont have insurance. I am going to a local clinic with people that dont have insurance but it opens at 1pm today. Hopefully they take me. If not, ima just go to a doc and make payments. This is extremely scary! Thanks guys

You can't really put a price on your own health...You need to go and get it checked asap and then face the financial consequences as opposed to worst case scenario consequences.

It does sound like jaundice however, which can be successfully treat.

Jaundice is the discoloration of the eyes. My grandmother in law just had it. they told her she would not live 2 weeks. Start taking milk thistle if you havent already. Drink tons of water. flush your body. It sounds like a blood infection effecting the liver. It could also be a viral infection in your liver. Either way stop what your doing and stay off AAS for quite a while. best of luck with your situation. As someone stated it could be serious, but as i stated above about g-mom in law pulled through. went from being diagnosed as horrible to much much better. if you drink alcohol stop, stop taking pain meds as they filter thru the liver as well.

you actually are asking random people online what to do here? the thought of seeing a TRAINED MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL never occured to you? this may sound rude but come on, some things are basic common sense. you are experiencing severe body disfunctions and instead of seeing a doctor or going to the ER, you post on a bodybuilding forum???????

of course someone browsing online may see this post and think to themselves 'bodybuilding is dangerous'. of course they have no idea what they are talking about, but they tell several friends during gossip. this is how stereotypes and hype perpetuate themselves

i hope that whatever is causing this condition is cured quickly, so you can resume your normal activities and training.

csuperman · Mar 16, 2009

go to a dr asap. and the people saying hope you dont need a new liver get real. there are more than one reason for juandice.

NPCS FINEST · Mar 16, 2009

Insurence or not....Go get this taken care of either way. Better to be safe then sorry.

HawaiiMuscle · Mar 16, 2009

Yeah buddy go get checked out. Just tell them up front you don't have insurance. I guarantee you won't be charged as much as someone with good medical coverage...I had a relative (no isurance) go to the ER recently, had a heart attack. I think he's cutting the hospital a check every month (low pymts, adjusted to his imcome level)...he'll probably never be able to pay it off, but at least he's well and living.

oldfella · Mar 16, 2009

Not much more to add here except.............................If you have not gone to the ER then I suggest you get off your ass and do so now. This is not a game show where you get mulitple choices. Go and see someone now!

STEVO 47 · Mar 16, 2009

He says he has no insurance for the ER ? Well as far as my state and
and most others I'm almost positive that it's against the law for the
ER to turn down anybody without insurance. I have no insurance and
that's where I go when somwething serious happens. They'll bill you
threw the mail........
