Summary

A Reddit user in the ME/CFS community reported that L-carnitine seemed to boost the effect of the steroids they were taking, so they had to take less. It gave them uncomfortable heat waves during cardio but worked well for weight lifting, so they used it only as needed before workouts rather than daily.
