The CT is caused by fluid pressing on the nerve. As your body gets used to it, it'll get better. I have also experienced other odd joint issues while on GH that I can't explain. Tennis Elbow and knee pain are common for me, when I start increasing the dose. Too late now, but it helps to start low, 2-3iu and slowly build, .5iu, every couple of wks, as you get used to it. If it's effecting your ability to hold the weight, you might need to back it down a little. Trust me, you'll still do good on 3iu, if you need to. Then a couple wks after the pain has gotten better, go to 3.5iu. See how you do for a couple of wks and go from there. Contrary to popular belief, there are big dudes out there using 3iu a day and making good gains. It's about the long game, not what you're able to tollerate today. Some guys can handle more than others. If you find a sticking point that you can't increase from, that just means you'll be able to run a lower dose for longer. IMO, 4iu for a year is better than 5-6iu for 8 months. Just food for thought. Long term gh use is ideal. I'm never coming off of it
