    Just from my med school friends, run ins at the med parties, doctors I've had...most people practicing primary care are taught steroids are bad mmkay and there's nothing else to it.

    I had ONE physical therapist who would openly discuss roids and peptides with me- he was the best. Yet he couldn't prescribe or do bloodwork.

    You get lucky sometimes. Stray heavily on the side of "don't even suggest it".
    Agree 100%. It's kind of a shame there aren't more doctors willing to get outside that box and look around. Of course when their license is on the line and they paid hundreds of thousands to get there, I can't say I blame them.

    You nailed the issue squarely. Why risk the cost of med school, years of torturous study, and millions in future income? That license is pretty damn valuable.
