    There is a lot of incorrect information here. I will certainly elaborate more later, but for now, I can attest to the following:

    1. I've been in cancer research now for 11 years. No research to date has shown any significant benefit from steroids. I also own a company involved in cancer R&D and the majority of compounds are directed at shunting pathways that steroids would often operate through (i.e. turning on apoptosis pathways or turning off proliferation pathways).
    2. Anabolic steroids are often immunosuppressive. This condition worsens response to therapy. It does not improve progression free survival (PFS).
    3. Some of the steroid benefits referred to in this thread are NOT the same steroids used in the BB community.

    So, you agree with my first statement , Right?
    I am, assuming that the steroids he is talking about, are the ones used by BB community, since this is a BB/steroid forum...there is other steroids for people that have cancer, but has nothing to do with the ones bb take... an example of one of those is dexamethasone.....
