: to the floor and composed myself . The pain got progressively worse and I
: ended up in the ER . I got an MRI < MRIA , and am waiting for the results
: ( I should have tommorrow ) . I am in week 1 of a decrease the day cycle
: of sust 250 took 6 days before the incident . So I am sure that this is not
: relevant ( since its such a small amount ). This was the worst pain I have ever felt
: . HAS ANYONE ELSE EVER EXPERIENCED SEVERE HEADACHES AFTER SQUATS AND WHAT WAS THE
: DIAGNOSIS . Thanks for your input .

Lyle Alzado once said that too much juice will give you brain tumors. I think your problem
is, like You said "which I do every year at this time", is obviously you picked the wrong
time of the year. Try doing increase the day cycle and at 765 lbs, thats 7 wheels,on the good
old fashioned squat rack at week 2,fter doing 12cc, of test suspension, one hour after
next time. Remember NO PAIN NO GAIN. PS dont go the the Hospital next time you Pussy.
