Mild Skin Flushing and Fatigue After GLOW Stack – is this normal?

5mg) after a knee injury. For a few days I’ve had a bit of flushing on the face and neck right after the injection, madrid I’ve felt a low‑grade fatigue that lasts a few hours. I’m a software engineer, so I keep my energy up with coffee and short walks, but the tiredness feels a bit more than normal caffeine buzz.
I know GHK‑Cu does have some antioxidant effect and the literature mentions “temporary skin flushing” as a side effect, but I haven’t seen much on the fatigue part. Does TB‑500’s “head rush” usually turn into a longer lethargy? Are there any simple tweaks (irman slower injection, different site, lower dose) that could ease this?
I’m new to peptides and want to keep my recovery on track without serious side effects. Any fellow users?

- student_rational: Hi, I’ve been on a similar stack a while back. The flushing you’re seeing is definitely a known reaction to GHK Horn; it’s usually brief, just a red flush that fades after a couple of minutes. The fatigue is trickier. I started to notice a mild, lingering tiredness about an hour after the injection, especially when I’m already on the edge of a long coding session. I ended up cutting the TB‑500 dose in half and switching to a 1‑mm depth injection site on the upper thigh instead of the ankle. Tha
- grace_sleepnerd: Thanks for the heads‑up. I’ve been at 5 mg TB‑500 and GHK‑Cu, so cutting TB‑500 in half sounds doable. I’ll switch the 1‑mm depth to the upper thigh too. You said the slump dropped, did the flushing stay the same or ease a bit? I’m also planning to wait about 30 min before coffee after injections. Let me know how that worked for you.
