can steroids kill you?

[joe d]

if this thread gives you a bad fealing or is something that you dont want to think about then you should reconsider your training and steroid use.

lets talk about the risks we face as bb'ers and pl'ers asociated with hard training, our unhealthy diets, and our steroid use.

all three of the above have been known to cause serous health risks from high bp and diabetes to liver failure, heart atack and strokes. sudden death. some of us seem to convince ourselves that the risks arent there. either because we are to stupid to understand or we dont want to accept the truth because we are to obsessed to quit.

it happens more than we hear about. we only hear of it when its someone famous or someone local. think back through your life about how many times you have heard of young men dying in connection with steroids.

i havent even mentioned the possibility of being accideltally poisoned and killed by a ug lab. think about it. who are you trusting with your life? i wonder how many household chemicals will kill you if you injected a small amount. its not like oral where you have defence mechanisms.

do you have a life partner? are they in agreement with the chances you are taking?

im not trying to rain on any ones parade. i just want people to be clear on what is really going on.


please disguss.

tell me im a dick if you want. (as long as your ready for a g-bomb)

Hey! Sounds like you have changed your mind about this subject. A few months ago your posts sounded like your mind set was not this. I am glad that you made this post and have thought about this important decision so many of us have made. I suffered an almost fatal heart attack, and it took that to drive it home for me. Hopefully others wont have to have such a dramatic reason to think things over.

This is something that You have to think about before you begin steroids. One of the problems that I am seeing is that guys are not making sure that they have no underlying conditions before they run a cycle, meaning no blood work. I remember my first cycle that I ran was EQ and Supertest and it put my blood pressure over the danger zone. When I had it checked it was 220 over 90 220/90 at the Doctors office. The only reason that I had it checked was due to the fact I was getting Migraine headaches, and the BP was causing it. I know it was EQ now because I have ran it many ti mes and my BP is always higher then any other AAS.

Moral of the story if I took preventive measure I would of had it under control and the issue would have not been a issue. Regarding getting UG bad gear that is therisk that you take. One way to help make sure it's sterile is to bake it and run it through a whatmans filter, and re-transfer. You should atleast be filtering your gear.

Can steroids kill? These boards are filled with information of steroids and toxicity levels of them. We know and have discussed at length the effects gear can have on blood pressure and cholesterol. We know and have discussed in length the effects it has on kidneys and the liver. It's obvious that steroids can lead to unwanted sides and even be a factor in some deaths.

First, hard training can be stressful, with or without steroids. I always warm up completely, stretching and more importantly do cardio. This way I'm not shocking my heart when I hit, say the squat rack. This is common sense.

Second, my diet has never been healthier and especially when I'm using. My days of eating shit food are long over. If I'm injecting AAS and working out like a mad man then fuck undermining all that with junk food. My cholesterol is great now from diet alone, no statins. And, I have a personal BP machine that I use all the time.

The dangers of steroids are well known on this board, and anyone would be foolish ignore the potential risks outlined here. We know what to expect, high estrogen, shrunken nuts, high BP, high lipids, high liver enzymes, etc. so anyone choosing to ignore these side-effects is a complete fool. Especially since for nearly every negative side-effect, there is something to counteract it, or minimize it.

Most of the heart problems and strokes from AAS can be attributed to high BP and the heart having to pump unnatural amounts of blood to unnaturally-sized bodies fueled with copious amounts of other recreational drugs such as cocaine, amphetamines, opiates, benzodiazapines, etc. etc. etc.

I know the risks and they are worth it to me. And, no I don't tell my significant other. You know why? Because no matter what I say, ANYTHING, it won't matter. She, along with just about everyone else I know is already brainwashed by what the media says about how evil steroids are and there's nothing that is gonna change their minds. So, I keep it to myself as best I can. I think she knows, but I don't confirm it.

the truth is yea steroids can lead to side that can cause death, but if you look at it that way someing as simple as a peanut or vitamin C can do the sam as well ..

 

[Unit 2005]

Too much of anything can kill you, i believe steroids can be relativly safe if you use them sensibly but yes these powerful hormones can kill if miss used or abused.

 

[joe d]

so how about the intense training and extreme diets that we follow. and the truck load of extra work our bodies have to do to hold those extra 100lbs it wasn't meant to carry? what about the fact that our bodies where designed with a digestive system that was desiged to have several rest periods per day and we give them none? also our blood itself is always over loaded?

 

[joe d]

i do understand that these risks do not apply nearly as much to those that are not that large, that barely clear 3000cals in a day, that only cycle 500mg of gear once per year. this thread is more for the guys that are more than trippling their rda in food carrying an extra 100+ lbs and never go off the gear.
