Sanction 2,065 Posted July 25, 2018 For the record, I have no idea how trazadone would affect an addict's mindset. Sometimes reddit actually has useful anecdotes on such things, but I've not researched that at all. 1 STENDEC reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mwarren 1,454 Posted July 25, 2018 3 minutes ago, Sanction said: Not much at that dosage. At 50 - 150 mg yes, though that wears off after time. Note that at 150 mg you start getting SSRI effects on the serotonin receptors. I really just want a subtle, quick, transient rise in either G or serotonin. The thought of lingering effects or possible seotonin syndrome down the road scare me. 1 Sanction reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mwarren 1,454 Posted July 25, 2018 Need to finish benching and face pulls later but today I increased weight and decreased volume. Squat 135x5 165x5 205x5 DL 205x5 Press 85x5 105x5 Chinup BWx7 I'll edit this later when I finish. Everything felt really light today. Had to tell myself to slow down on squats so I don't miss my cues as I work on it. 1 Emperor G_D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mwarren 1,454 Posted July 26, 2018 Finished my benching then came out to a flat tire. Yay. Bench 95x5 135x3 155x5 Smooth sailing 1 Emperor G_D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mwarren 1,454 Posted July 28, 2018 Day 18 (I think) Squat 135x5 175x5 205x5x2 DL 205x5 Press 85x5 105x5x2 Bench 95x5 135x5 155x5x2 Pullup BWx7x2 Incline DB Bench 30x20 Blu Face Pull 35x15+12 Squats are feeling like a good groove is setting in. 1 STENDEC reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mwarren 1,454 Posted July 28, 2018 Feel a little shitty today. Puked once but resting and recovering. Jamie can face pull more than I can. Very telling when you consider she's never had any shoulder injuries or even aches. I'm going to really focus on these and use them as a marker. 1 Kimbo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mwarren 1,454 Posted July 30, 2018 I started feeling better just an hour ago. Skipped training today obviously. Jamie and I both couldn't digest our food and were nauseated and bloated all weekend. And, my eyes turned yellow for 12 hours. So immediately I started worrying about my liver. I'm not taking any substances that would cause liver damage or anything but I got paranoid. My eyes are white again but my urine is very dark and has been the last few days. All I'm putting into my body is food and fish oil. I think I should go to the doc and get bloodwork for my liver enzymes regardless. If I feel fine tomorrow I'll train. I'm not one of the "lift light to help recover while sick" guys. More like "early deload is never a bad idea" lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STENDEC 6,386 Posted July 30, 2018 Jaundice accompanied by dark urine is a trip to the doc every time buddy. Ever had gallstones? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emperor G_D 6,863 Posted July 30, 2018 Definitely get bloods done. How much hydration are you getting? 'food and fish oil' doesn't imply water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emperor G_D 6,863 Posted July 30, 2018 Also, I once had a stomach virus run through my house like wildfire. I was the only one to experience a liver side effect-ghost poop. My poop was solid white for 2 days after I got done being sick. Sometimes GI illness can impact your liver pretty bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm feeling fine today and urine is lighter but I'm not chancing it. Given my past, I'd like to know if I have hep C. Never had a gallstone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Been drinking a ton now that I'm paranoid. Was probably not drinking enough before. My skin isn't discolored and my eyes go back and forth so it might not be worst case scenario. I WAS having bag stomach issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mwarren 1,454 Posted July 30, 2018 I did lift since it appears it wouldn't hurt anything according to what I've read. I won't do anything strenuous until things have calmed.

mwarren 1,454 Posted July 31, 2018 I hope there's a prostate exam involved. I'm not doing any other exercise until I get bloodwork and the ok from the doc. I don't want to make any liver enzymes higher from exercise just in case. 1 Kimbo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
