Noticed water retention and higher fasting glucose on cjc-1295 dac – anyone else?

Hey folks i’m new to peptides but i’ve been running cjc-1295 dac 2mg twice weekly for about three weeks now mostly for recovery and sleep. For what it is worth i’ve noticed a bit of puffiness around my ankles and lower legs after the second week – nothing painful just a mild swelling that goes down after a day or two of rest. 8 mmol/l on a couple of tests.

I’m not sure if it’s the peptide, diet changes from extra training load, or just placebo but it made me wonder if others have seen similar water retention or glucose shifts with dac. I’ve been drinking more water, cutting back on salty snacks and planning to recheck my bloodwork next month.
