I have heard a lot of people complain about irreguler heart beats while on steroids. Your heart itself is a muscle and when on steroids you put a lot of stress on your body as well as you heart. So, it wouldn't be too far fetched that there is a corrlation between the two.

Heres a quick read i found about that could be related to your heart. It was related to the death of Caminiti. Hope it helps:
"One, steroid use raises blood pressure," she said. "Two, it can also alter your sugar metabolism, so you have an increased risk of diabetes. Three, it makes the arteries vulnerable since, because of elevated cholesterol, you get cholesterol plaque buildup."
Steroid abuse can also cause a dangerous thickening of heart muscle called hypertrophy --- the same kind of heart-muscle enlargement seen in patients with congestive heart failure, experts warn.
"By revving the heart up with steroids, making it grow bigger, and then taking those steroids away, you end up with a heart muscle that's enlarging and then contracting. It's like putting [pitching great] Roger Clemens' arm in a sling and then telling him to pitch," explained Dr. Eric Braverman, a New York City doctor

Hi, I also am having the problem but am taking about 1/10th of your dose. For me it may be coffee, so I am debating whether or not to quite that. Actually I am addicted to the coffee otherwise surely I would quite immediately. Anyway I was doing just 100 mg primobolan a week. Sounds like not much, but using it for hrt as I am over 50. But for me and my low dose it could be the coffee or stress or even my training in the heat here in Thailand.
However for you I have to notice the gigantic doses you are taking. I think it is not sustainable for any period of time. And surely would lead to any and all side effects very shortly. I think, assuming steroid use at all, that you should reduce to about 1/5 the total dosage. You might still get way more than a fifth of the total result less some side effects.
guys, this is going on way too much lately, bumping threads that are years and years old... this needs to stop...
The thread shows in Google search. It's not some conspiracy. If you don't want it to be commented on then delete the thread. No one is going to bother to check the dates of the thread and say oh this is too old I can't comment. That's nonsense. If you don't want to read comments on old threads then don't read them.
