A/S will not show up in routine blood tests. The only things that could show up are abnormal liver function if you've been taking lots of orals, and abnormal lipid profiles. Unless you're OBVIOUSLY a bodybuilder the doctor is not going to suspect A/S is the cause. More likely to advise you to cut down on alcohol and high cholesterol foods! So don't sweat it. The A/S may even help speed your recovery. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Be careful with this!!!! AS will alter your blood's ability to clot...read that somewhere. Kind of why they tell yo no aspirin before surgery...this goes for aspirin type of shit like all thermos and stuff. Do some more research on this. Don't mess with your health like that...just come clean with the doc...tell himm to save the moral shit and just do his f'in job. IP: Logged |

If clotting on A/S were a serious problem, all you guys would bleed to death every time you cut your finger. HeHehe. I think there is a question of dosage here. Guys naturally have 10x as much A/S floating around in their bodies as us woman, and I hope no woman on this board is using that much. But BigPappa is correct when talking about guys on 1-2 grams a gear per week, it can decrease clotting times. In spite of that, it would be good if you could tell your surgeon ALL medication that you're on. It's not like he's gonna arrest you or even report you to the police. ------------------ IP: Logged |

thats true...i was off my cycle for the surgery...if you will be on during surgery its best to tell him....they told me no asprin, vitamin e, or garlic pills for 1 week prior & 1 week after surgery,,,,& those are minor things....best to tell the doc....he may be judgemental, but he cant rat you out....rather be safe then sorry IP: Logged |

Not to worry. I have no intensions of cycling while under the knife, but realize that the healing process is substantial. I had this surgery done when I was 16! and it knocked me out for a year. Granted I'm not 16 any more, but a share more stubborn and damned if I'm gonna roll over for the next year. My ass is gonna be in the gym with a vengence. (I really am a shitty patient....cut my last cast off 4 times before my broken wrist healed)
