First let me say, I read numerous posts that said you should always be honest with your doctor about juicing..............well, it sure didn't work for me. Here's my story:
I finished my last cycle in early December. So, being 8 weeks clean, I went to the doctor for my annual check-up. My blood pressure (which always reads good at drug stores) was 146/98. I was very nervous and could actually feel my heart pounding. So, my doctor scheduled me for bloodwork the following week and rather than sit around for a week, I bought a $100 omron blood pressure monitor with a big cuff. That entire week, I took my BP every morning and every night and it was almost always UNDER 120/80 with a pulse of around 70. When I went back for bloodwork, I gave a reading of 150/100 with a pulse in the 90's.
I think its obvious that I have white coat syndrom, especially since all my blood values were normal (well, SGOT was one point high but I drank a ****load of beer 2 days prior). Anywho, like everyone suggests on this forum, I was honest with my doctor about my use..........and it was a disaster!!!
She never asked what I was taking, much less the doses..........she just rambled off the obvious side effects and told me that if my BP got that high when I was nervous, that I could have a stroke (even though I'm only 25). She felt my testicles and said they were fine also. To make a long story short, she assured me that there were countless deaths from steroid use and that if I didn't stop immediately, she would no longer be my doctor for refusing her advice. She scheduled me for more bloodwork in a month..........but, I just started a cycle again (test e) and I have no intention of stopping.
Can she drop me?? What should I do now??
Advice is needed and greatly appreciated.
