IV antibiotics, keflex and aromasin, bloated to hell on 50mg

ironwill2006 · Apr 7, 2010

Anybody notice this. I dropped 500cals, and I'm up 3 lbs from two weeks ago... daily cardio. Basically I look like shit and my libido is good when on 50mg of aromasin it should be in the gutter.

edit: dropped 500 cals when I got abscess, dropped cardio--- added back in cardio, kept the 500cals off. Ive been ramping my cals down.

Im wondering if its the antibiotics or if my aromasin is bunk... started a new 20 tab pack.

It sounds like you have an infected abscess and are receiving IV antibiotics for it? Infections can kill your libido, don't ask me the method but if you are sick you don't often want to screw in my experience.

Yer just bloated from the infection. Systemic infections cause you to hold water, that's been my experience anyway. Bad stomach flu or food poisoning and Im dropping muscle like its a bad habit, but still bloated.

And Aromasin kills my libido, big time. That's a ton of Aromasin. But it wont take care of water thats not Estrogen related. It's not a diuretic. So, even if it's good, if the bloat comes from the infection or the antibiotics, the AI will not get rid of it.

Try this: If Im dieting and I get bloated and nothing helps, I carb up for a day or two. I mean eat and eat a lot. Like Pizza and cereal plus your usual, make sure you're way over your caloric minimum for the day. It's strange, but it seems to stimulate the metabolism or something. By the first night after the carb up, you're pissing 4x and in two days your're way tighter and harder with no bloat. Then, back on the diet.
