high resting heart rate

[TODouble2]

i have a habit of checking my pulse on my wrist. my resting heart rate has been high for at least a week now. i didn't measure it with any device but my estimate would be between 90 and 100 bpm.

i've been on 600 primo and 125 test weekly and have just added in tren ace but only 25mg/day. also on t3/t4 and gh.

it seems that this came along with the addition of the tren but i could be wrong. plus i am only running 175mg a week. any ideas on what could be causing this?

I would check it first thing in the morning before getting out of bed brother.

Stimulus can cause elevated BP or BPM.

Most likely it your t3/t4. Remember that one of the main symptoms of hyperthyroidism is tachycardia or increased in basal pulse rate. Obviously the combo of gear you are currently using can also be the cause. Have you checked your blood pressure? When is the last time you had some labs done?

was like that all my life, no difference when i started gear, tho my BP was allways been perfect

wow thanks for the quick response! this is why you got my vote for featured member.

i haven't had labs done in quite some time. i'm definitely due for that.. blood pressure has always been fine but i haven't checked since this happened. i ordered a monitor but the cuff didn't fit my arm so i returned it. i actually made a thread about BP monitors.

what are your thoughts on the compounds i'm running? i really don't want to give up the tren since i haven't ran it in so long and i'm running a low dose.

if its the thyroid meds causing this, how bad is it? i've never experienced fat loss like i am on the t3/t4. i would love to be able to use them again in the future.

Are you using any stimulants?

Are you using any stimulants?

no i do not like them. i don't need them either. the most i use is an espresso or a sugar free red bull preworkout on occasion.

The issue is that persistent tachycardia is just over driving the heart for no reason and can lead to cardiomegally. Imagine a car that is used to revving to 2-3k RPM instead revving at 4-5k RPM constantly. Temp and momentary rises in pulse is expected and actually welcome like when we exercise etc. But having a heart rate of a 100 is like you are running 24/7.

If i were you i would get the following :

1) CBC with differential
2) Complete metabolic panel (Chem 20 )
3) TSH, Free T3 and Free T4
4) Blood pressure every morning upon waking 7 days in a row for a good average since a single reading is pretty much worthless

Would agree probably the thyroid meds. Any anxiety, feeling jittery, problems falling asleep, feeling warm or flushed like your embarrassed?

will do. should i stop the thyroid meds for a certain amount of time before checking my levels??? and i guess i need to find an automatic BP machine with a cuff that fits.

no, none of those symptoms. i naturally have a little anxiety but nothing more than usual since starting the meds.

Well i just wanted to see how high your free t3/t4 were on the current dosage. Speaking of which what dosage of those two are you taking?

i'm tapering down right now because i plan to come off. my highest was 150mcg t4 and 100mcg t3.... i tapered the t3 down first and today is my first day without it. so i just took 150 t4 and i'll taper that down in the next few days.. i'm not sure if this was the best way to do it but thats what i did.

also, i posted this question but never got an answer. maybe you can help. with all the reccomendations of taking t4 with gh, is it ok to take a low dose long term? does the conversion factor of t4 to t3 keep your thyroid active? or is it meant to be taken with time on/time off???

Well no wonder you have tachycardia. That is a shit load of thyroid meds. 100mcg of T3 is a lot on its own then you add another 150mcg of T4 and wow. Hell even 25-50mcg of T3 on its own will work just fine. Having that high of a thyroid is no conducive for keeping or gaining lean mass.

I know, I'm an idiot. It wast necessary. Im not one to go crazy with aas doses. I dont know why I did it with these meds. Can you take a look at my question in my previous post. U want to know if I should come off completely or if I can stay on a little t4. Thanks

I'm sorry I dont understand what u mean. I should have known it was the t3 causing this and not the tren?

I know you weren't putting me down and I value your opinion. You're one of the people I hope to see in my thread. I just didn't understand what you meant. That's all.
