Okay..

**Younggymrat** · 08-26-2012, 01:50 PM

Soo will it?

**austinite** · 08-26-2012, 01:54 PM

Will it what? Will a test show that you are on gear? What kind of test are you taking? Any doctor that sees sky rocket levels of Test will know you're doing something.

Test prop. I ran it 3 weeks ago at 300mgs a week. I just wanna know if the the doctor will know that I was on it.

test P has an active life of 2 to 3 days and a detection time of two to three weeks. After three weeks, test P should not be detectable. but because your natty test production is suppressed, your doctor may see that your test levels are very poor, and that coupled with your muscularity and potential gyno, would be a red flag to a doc that is knowledgeable.

are you on pct?

**Younggymrat** · 08-26-2012, 02:24 PM

Well idk if you guys know but I was the 18 yr old who ran it for 2weeks. But I plan going to the doc saying I think I have breast cancer? Not sure what they will do. Because my nipples aren't itchy.

they dont have to be itchy. You ran a cycle. Do you do a pct? Are you on nolva?

If I recall correctly, he never planned an AI or PCT. This I believe is why he stopped after some advice from members.

**Younggymrat** · 08-26-2012, 02:51 PM

Yes I stopped after 2 weeks, figured I should wait.

**gixxerboy1** · 08-26-2012, 02:53 PM

well it sounds like you got gyno. so goto the dr and get checked also check your blood work.
this is another reason 18 year olds shouldn't juice

Don't self diagnose or lead your doc in the wrong direction. Simply state the facts (i.e. you noticed a lump and puffiness). Let the doctor do his/her differential diagnosis. IMO, if you are asked about using gear, I think you are better off being honest than evasive. Sure he/she may lecture you on the use of steroids at your age.....but what would expect? If you know you shouldn't have used it and did anyway, it's better the doctor knows what he/she is up against so he/she can properly treat your condition. Doctors and healthcare providers are legally required to protect disclosure of your personal health information (PHI), pursuant to the Privacy Rules established by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996. With some exceptions, healthcare providers may not use or disclose any of your PHI than is necessary to accomplish the purpose of the use or said disclosure. The are legally required to follow the privacy practices described in HIPAA. There are however, some exceptions to this act under which a healthcare provder may be required to disclose your PHI WITHOUT your permission. For example, when a disclosure is required by federal, state or local law, judicial or administrative proceedings, or law enforcement. In such cases, doctors may disclose PHI when a law requires that doctors report information to government agencies and law enforcement personnel about victims of abuse, neglect, or domestic violence; when dealing with gunshot or other wounds; for the purpose of identifying or locating a suspect, fugitive, material witness or missing person; or when subpoenaed or ordered in a judicial or administrative proceeding. In general, use of steroids falls outside this exception, however, every state may have different local laws on reporting steroid use /abuse.

Not knowing your relationship with your physician, it's difficult to advise you on the best strategy, however, I wouldn't walk into a clinic claiming to have breast cancer. You have no grounds for that diagnosis, you are only misleading your doctor, and you may prompt the doctor to ask why you suspect you have breast cancer. State your symptoms, let him/her make the diagnosis and go from there.

I agree 100% with MuscleInk. I think you should just be perfectly honest with what you did. Now in saying that from what I have seen from the "new" batch of doctors they might not know what the hell to do for you. Often too many times people skirt around with what they are doing or have done with regards to health. IMO for him to get it right just tell him what you did. He might Frown but he is not going to run to the phone and call anyone. I had a scare back in the 96 and I at first I lied but he eventually got it out of me. Turned out to be nothing but I looked like an ass and he even said "we could have avoided several test had you just been honest the first time"!

**Younggymrat** · 08-26-2012, 10:21 PM

Well do you think maybe I could just order stuff from ar-r ? And it clear it?

**ppwc1985** · 08-27-2012, 07:11 AM

Not going to tell u what to do but you should go dr and be honest, with that said there is a sticky here on gyno written by someone with exp. go read it maybe it will help. And I believe the stuff it recommends is available from AR-R .
