Title: 13 months into T - feeling it run through my veins?
Post by: ephone on September 28, 2015, 10:46:14 PM
I haven't been use to noticeable effects of T ever since I reached my one year mark but now that I'm around 13 months, I'm feeling it run through my veins? It's hard to describe, it's as though my body is warmer, something feels different. My muscles are feeling a bit more defined? I've always had a workout routine but haven't worked out in 4 days and haven't had a feeling like this during recovery.

Has anyone had this experience? Or is this a bad sign?

I think I've felt that, but I don't think it's because it actually is running through your veins you know? after my shot I always feel like I can go up stairs easier, run faster , and jump higher

Your body might create more red blood cells, and your blood pressure might increase while taking testosterone.  This combination can make it feel like something is 'coursing through your veins'.  If you have had these things checked with your doctor, then I think it is nothing to worry about.
