Vein on right hand throbs and a little painful swelling feeling on and off every hour or so. I hope it is just a result of lower body fat % and not anything else. Head throbs a little at the same time in right tempera lobe. Normally they are not vasculating this much nor are they painful. What do you think? Just looking for some free medical advice.

What is the energy pill your taking' date=' alt of those ones like hydroxycut are mostly caffeine which will increase your bp and heart rate and can give you palpitations.[/quote']

Been on oxyelitepro for about 1.5 months. It has reduced a lot of body fat and gives me the power during working out. I am due to cycle off it pretty soon for a couple months.

Oxyelite Pro Side Effects for Both Men and Women The following are the possible side effects anyone using Oxyelite Pro may experience: Caffeine-induced Side Effects. Oxyelite Pro contains caffeine, which speeds up metabolism. However, caffeine can be addictive and can cause several side effects, including: *Nausea

*Dizziness

*Queasiness

*Racing Heart

*Hypertension

*Restlessness

*Insomnia

*Nervousness

*Irritability

*Muscle twitching

*Increased urination

*Constipation

^Increase in Sweating.

As the name implies, thermogenics like Oxyelite Pro promote body heating that results in increased sweating. As your body heats up to burn more calories, the body employs a natural process, sweating, which reduces the body temperature. Of all the Oxyelite Pro side effects, this is the most difficult for some users because it is not only uncomfortable, but can also be publicly embarrassing. Decrease in Appetite. Loss of appetite is an expected goal of the product, but some people may not be happy with this effect. One more undesirable effect is that not only fat is lost, but muscle mass as well. Furthermore, for people who stop using the pill the reverse effects may occur and they may not be able to function without taking it. Heart Problems.

**************************************

Oxyelite Pro is a vasoconstrictor, which shrinks the diameter of blood vessels and impedes blood flow. With an increased heart rate, vasoconstriction can increase blood pressure, which can increase one's risk for a heart attack or stroke. When used with exercise, this can be potentially dangerous.

********************************************

Never take Oxyelite Pro with other stimulants or pre-workout drinks used by bodybuilders. Never mix it with drugs containing amphetamines or antidepressants.

I am thinking of getting off the oxy due to the side effects. It is time to cycle off it anyways. I missed the warning about mixing it with antidepressants, but did see the warning about mixing with other pre workouts (admit: ignored) and other thermos (did not ignore). Have cut coffee way back since on it. I still have an SSRI that I take a very low dose of because I still need to figure out how to stop it completely with the doctor. Need to research now why there is a warning about SSRI and this oxyelitepro.

WTF??

Lol!!! I had the same thought!

And yes get off that ****!!!

Fiddle, my brother was looking for perfection..

He had addiction problems his whole adult life,

Including addiction to fitness, performance and youth. He is dead.

What are you looking for?

To answer your question: I am looking to achieve an athletic physical fitness with a body fat percentage of 10-12%. I have stated in another thread about dreams that I want to compete in cross fit national games in 2 years and then compete in america ninja warrior in about 5 years. I have an unfair disadvantage as never been an athlete before and am not genetically disposed to it in terms of body composition. However, I believe with the right attention to nutrition, training and supplementation, anything is possible. Anything. I have a lot of quick catching up to do in the next 5 years and bit requires a lot of daily focus to transforming my body in terms if composition and athleticism. Plus I need to eliminate this small skin issue in the tummy from losing weight. It is not bad, but still needs to go to achieve my goals.

I'm done with VST today....

Good luck to you fiddle.

Fiddle......just be careful with some of that and make sure to read up on the ingredients. If you can......can you save that energy stuff (caffeine, etc), for when you absolutely cannot get going? Sometimes half of the battle is getting to the gym and getting started, then once you're into it, the exercise and blood pumping will be enough of a stimulant to get you going and to focus. Just hoping you can at least cut back a little on the stimulants and only use them when you absolutely have to.....if at all. You're doing well bud and I'd hate to see you use stuff that may have some bad side effects or even lead to serious illness or consequences.

Laura.......may I ask what happened to him? Heart attack? Overdose?

Around - I may use stimulants too much as an expectation to amplifying workout result. Maybe I do depend on them a little too much as the rule instead of the exception. Is using energy supplements to achieve a better workout an addiction? Is it wrong? I got sold on the idea that such supplementation was the rule rather than he exception from the supplementation sales people (eg vitamin shoppe) and from research in the body building forums. And that leads me to always use them for every workout. And the results are great in terms on reps, speed, performance, etc. Can I achieve the same results without them? Not sure. I should try. I always have had n addictive personality in everything I set my mind to as always want to give 110%. Is that healthy? Most of the time it is. Valedictorian, Eagle Scout, Concert Master in 120 member orchestra prior in life. Top of my career, great family, good post op weight loss, a competitive drive in athletic workouts to always get better. Having an addictive personality has served me well in being able to succeed and not settle.

Laura, I did not mean to have you leave from my words. I apologize if what I have said has offended you. I was just restating my long term goals. You and I go way back and share a lot together since this VST collaboration has started. I hope you are not mad. Yes, I do have an addictive personality. It is in my bones.

Fiddle you need to remember that ssri's are a stimulant themselves, mixing them with another stimulant like oxyelite will increase their effects on the body. This is most likely what is leading to your problems at this point. I also believe that these thermogenics build up in your system over time, which is why you are supposed to cycle off of them anyhow. Your goals are admirable, but your should not ignore any warnings on any medication or supplement. Sounds like you should try to get with your dr and get weaned off the ssri, unfortunately a lot of dr's don't like to wean patients off of things unless you really push them. Good Luck.
