I just thought you should know...

To Whom it May Concern,
I just wanted to take a moment of your time to pass on some of my new experiences that may or may not be due to my use of anabolics. I am 23 year old male and have done two cycles consiting of moderate dosages of Sust 250 and DBol (cycle one) and Test Prop and Tbol (cycle two). This past week I found that I was bleeding internally and had to go into the emergency room where I got blood tests and a CAT scan performed. It was found that I had a tumor of about 2.5 inches in diameter in my colon. Tests came back saying that the mass is still precancerous, but it must be removed immediately. The scary thins about conditions like these are that they are often symptomless until the tumor has been there for awhile. I don't have any pain at all right now and I didn't see this coming at all.

I'm not saying that my health issues are due solely to my use in anabolics, but I can't say that I fit the usual profile of a cancer patient because I'm young, fit, active, don't drink, smoke, or use any drugs (besides those listed above), and this condition hasn't been shown in my family. I will be undergoing a fairly serious surgery probably sometime this week to hopefully get me moving back onto a healthier path.

I just wanted you all to know that there are rare occurances where things like this may happen and you should take your health seriously. I never overused these anabolic susbstances either. The doctors say that this tumor must have been in me for some time because it is so large so just because you feel fine doesn't always mean that you are fine. I just wish you all the best of luck with everything and I encourage people to get screenings (i.e. colonoscopy, etc) at least every two or three years if you are going to have anabolics in your lifestyle.

I just want to say thanks to this forum because it's been a great part of my life learning and growing with you all, but I believe that I will be competing as a drug-free athlete from this point forth.

Best Regards,

Sorry to hear this dude, but blaming this on Anabolics is ridiculous. My daughter died of a Brain Tumor at three and a half and she certainly wasnt using steroids. To suggest that there is a profile for people that get cancer is crazy IMO, there is no such profile. You are just as likely to get cancer from breathing the air as you are from anything else. At least you found it early and you have a good prognosis. Good luck with the surgery !

I agree, and am sorry for the loss of your daughter and the unimaginable pain that must have resulted in. BUt I don't think he was blaming it on anabolics. I understood him to just say get regular checkups/screening. That's probably a good idea, whether you are taking anabolics or not, since obviously things like cancer can strike anyone, regardless of age or lifestyle.

I seriously wish the best and quickest recovery for you.

Haven't spoke in awhile Kale...

I remember you telling me about it awhile back..

My heart goes out to you buddy...

Colon cancer is one of the top killers in the western world, yet the most ignored. Its occurrence is increasing, yet is perhaps the easiest to diagnose and treat.
Healthy diet and seeing a gastroenterologist can easily...indeed.. save your life.

my father pasted from colon cancer, it will sneak up on you. make sure to get that test cause time is everything at that point
good luck to you bro

(I'm not saying that my health issues are due solely to my use in anabolics, ) My thoughts will be with you for the weeks to come. sorry to here that news . I hope things get better for you. Please keep us posted.

Yes, especial when you get into your 40s a colonoscopy every couple years is essential.

Thankfully you have the option of surgery, finding it precancerous was key, I hope you have a full and speedy recovery.

Thats too bad youll be okay, the anabolics ? would push that or feel guilty about it.
Remember ever cancer/ diesease is rare until you have it.
Colon cancer is just about a hundred percent curable when caught early, your lucky you had symptoms.
take care, youll be fine, YOU gotto be + man

good luck bro

My father also died of colon cancer. He was about 230lbs in his prime but died at about 130lbs. Good luck with your procedure. GET HEALTHY

good luck with all brother...

My prayers go out to you. Stay positive.

imo high protein diets may damage your colon so do eat fibers and stuff like that so u use the toilet often... , good luck bro,

How can you tell if those symptons are not in your family ?

Your grandfather did probably not had a Cat scan .. or your grandmother, or your great-grand ..

but good luck, you're quite lucky..

Sorry to hear. Good luck and keep us posted.

God Bless...
