   I've noticed people saying it costs a lot to test for steroids. If I go to the doctor for a regular checkup, do I have to worry about testing positive through peeing or blood being drawn? I'm also worried about a job interview this summer. Do most companies just test for recreational drugs? I would appreciate all help. Thanks! IP: Logged |

You have nothing to worry about; most jobs only test for recreational drugs - I used to worry about the same thing, but it was needless worry. As far as docs go, most of them still think creatine is made by Satan himself, so who knows who the the hell they think gear is made by. primo IP: Logged |

Naw, I've asked the clinic that I have do our drug testing if they can or do test for AS. They said they don't and that they don't know of a clinic that does. Its a cost of about 400 bucks to test for AS, according to the local mr. natural promoters. IP: Logged |

Yeah I wouldn't sweat it. I had the same ordeal when I had *A LOT* blood work done and I thought that the doc would be notice it. Testing for AS costs a lot of money and they would have to go out of their way to do it. They might notice that your trigliceride levels will be VERY high, but just tell them that you have put on a lot of weight recently. IP: Logged |

Like everyone has been saying, don't worry about it. Since a mass spectrometer costs around $200,000.00 or more, not many drug testing labs have one. Unless of course you are a member of the US Olympic Team. IP: Logged |
