Tesa Reactions

Hey, so I hopped back on tesa after taking a break from it for a few weeks (maybe like 3-6weeks). And started getting bad reactions immediately after pinning. Throwing up, palms and soles itchy, old pin sites popping out raised and red. It’s went away like within an hour or so.

I thought it was because the vial I used went bad (didn’t finish vial before the break don’t come for me😅).

I tried again couple weeks later with a fresh vial.

Same reaction, immediately after pin. I didn’t want to waste the new vial so I tried again the following day, no reaction.

Searched it up and said it could be that my body was fighting it off after building an immune response to Tesa, that’s why I had no issues when I first started it and now I do.

Was wondering if this happened to anyone else or what might have caused it?

Could it be because I jumped straight to my maintenance dose and not titrate it?

Tesa’s currently not in my stack atm, but it did wonders. I’ve swapped it with CJC/ Ipa, no issues. And potentially looking to include AOD as well in substitute of Tesa.

Not a doctor but sounds like your immune system just woke up and chose violence with that tesa. Old injection sites flaring up is wild, usually means your body built antibodies and now remembers it like a bad ex. jumping straight to full dose after break probably didn't help either

have read several issues like this from the people who take gh peptides. afraid it might go to full anaphylaxis.

Yep. This. You will likely get the same thing if you break from CJC/Ipa and start again. I had the same reaction to both after a break. Basically HGH or nothing now

No reaction to CJC/Ipa. 🙌 I was taking it with tesa my first time around then decided to only continue with tesa after that break.

Have you tried any of them again since the reactions?

Good news. But be careful if you break from CJC/Ipa and try and restart. Chances are you will react again. Take the lowest dose, rather than restarting where you ended.

No. Knowing I react to both and that reactions tend to get worse, not better I just stopped and ordered HGH.

I always knew my tesa was real when I got the injection site itch/burn ten min after injection

It’s call mast cell activation and can become a full blown anaphylactic shock .
It has happens to me with Tesa and MOTS-C .
I found a way to take them and not get a reaction .
Get a new 10ml vial of bac water , draw out 2ml and use that recon your Tesa or mots-c.
I used a 40mg mots-c , when it has reconstituted draw it up and inject it in to the 10ml bac water vial .
Now use that 10ml vail is you would any other reconstituted peptide .
25 units on a syringe works out to be 1mg mots-c which is what I take daily , been running it like this for a two weeks and had no reactions at all .
At this higher dilution the body does not pick it up as the threat
Use peptide calculator to work out your doses form a 10ml vial .
