Mitigating Carpel Tunnel With HGH?

A

I started developing Carpel Tunnel Syndrome last month shortly after starting 2iu of HGH before bed.. I thought I had just pinched a nerve or had some bad inflammation causing it and did not think it was the HGH. I decided to go up to 4iu split pre workout and before bed and my symptoms have exasperated at 4iu.. So clearly I'm lead to believe I'm getting these sides from my GH. The good news it, my GH is great. The bad news is my sleep is being crippled by waking up in the middle of the night in pain from my hands/wrist. The last thing I wanna do is stop, I've been noticing a huge difference since implementing it. I know the obvious answer is lower my dose, but even at 2iu I was still having my sleep get effected from carpel tunnel. I'm curious what you guys have done to mitigate carpel tunnel sides from GH, whether physical therapy or splitting doses EOD.. I'm all ears!!

Thanks

The thing with GH is u need to do very small increments to avoid sides. Let ur body adjust each step.

Starting at 2iu was too much shock for ur body to adjust, then 4 was way too much.

I suggest dropping down to 1iu for a couple weeks make sure the carpal tunnel goes away, then increase by .5iu every 2-3 weeks from there. VERY slowly and let ur body adjust each step. Ull thank me later then u can eventually work back up to ur 4iu no problems at all.

Good advice
I get extreme lethargy from GH. I think my thyroid is getting whacked. Any good sources for T4 on here? Most seem to have not so great reviews

Up your water. Srs.
Part of the reason GH is giving you carpal tunnel is due to the water retention - it's putting pressure on your radial and ulnar nerves.
If you increase your fluid intake, your body will respond by flushing out subcutaneous fluid. So.. get on dat dere 1.5-2 gallons of water per day. Do this for a week and I guarantee your carpal tunnel will get better.

Or lower the dose.

Litterally having these same issues currently this pain is horrible and I’m up 5 to 6 times a night I’ve stopped mine all together was on 2 iu for about 3 weeks then went to 4 for about 2 and started getting real bad carpal tunnel it’s been roughly 5 days since I’ve stopped and the pain and numbness is still there I’d be curious as to what you did and if you are still experiencing these sides they are no joke

There was a really promising post by @Lrf53 in another thread. He said he backed off to a dose that made him feel no hand pain for about six weeks. Then, when he started ramping, he did it gradually.

That might be an approach to try. You're starting out lower, but if 0.5 IU/day is tolerable, it's a place to start. May be a bit of a tricky situation with inhibition of natural production, but if you you think you could benefit from a higher dose, this is what I would do.

This. Or thug it out and deal with it until you acclimate and it goes away (longest I ever had was like 6 weeks maybe?).

What "brand" of GH is it (sorry if you mentioned already), some people's are real bad for me, and others aren't. TP's varies a little with batches but for the most part I don't get any sides so I've mostly stuck with that for years unless it's unavailable.

My swelling started in my hands with mild cts on the left side. Swelling moved down to my knees and now it's into my feet. On 2iu generic at night. By moved I mean I stopped having symptoms in the hand area and it seems to be going down to my feet only now.
