That's why I asked the question about half-life. Jay and Stevesmi, I'm already on TRT, I'm doing the steroids because I have Degenerative Disc Disease, among other things my spinal discs are all leaking, it's becoming more and more bone on bone, Chronic Pain! The left side of my spine also wasn't fused properly, I was born underweight and my left leg was bent back and attached to me thigh, the Pain Doc is sure there's other problems because of that leg thing, and I have to use a can periodically as the back pain shoots down especially on the left side, and I limp badly
You're wrong (I'm not getting testy, I love you guys!) about whether I'm abusing steroids and it DOES work for me. I work out as I can, pitifully, it's just walking and power bands, I'm in rough shape, but I'm not giving up! I served in Viet Nam in the USMC, and I served in the Army, I ran track in high school, etc; so even with my problems I keep going
Once I started on the gear, I got stronger PER my condition; I got more energy TO walk and power band, I felt better, and I know placebo power, but I've been thru dozens of drugs, and I know it's not a placebo effect, it HELPED my body, even my condition. Just because I can't work out like I used to, I will strive not to give up until I can't walk, I won't quit, but my body may. I'm strong willed, but the gear made me feel more confidant, I won't stop using them until I die, nothing matters to me more (except for my Wife who has stood beside me in all this, plus she's 14 years younger to me, and THAT keep ME young, and the gear helped there also) sorry, off track a little, my mobility is very important to me, I was in shape before body-building, and was more so during bodybuilding. I even worked out for almost 2 years after I had my first back breakdown at work, but it got less and less, until I sold my Bowflex, and gave my weight away. Muskate, thank you for the half-life info, that's why I asked, I will and have been using the smallest amount possible, but again, it will be for life, because I CAN'T quit. Thank all of you for your responses, and I'll take more info if you have any more!
