It almost sounds as if he is saying exercise makes you die faster
Exactly what he is saying. Controversial but I think he's right. Athletes DO die younger.

Competitive athletes sure, but that's due to a multitude of factors including how soon they get out of it as well.Exactly what he is saying. Controversial but I think he's right. Athletes DO die younger.
Every damn time the genetics card gets played.
Wish this was a possibility for me. Some docs won't approve an echo because I'm in the mid-thirties. Says it shouldn't be an issue at this point. Tried with several docs. They do an EKG and say, "See? You're fine."
Ugh.
Had my family friend doctor give me one. Even he was hesitant and I didn’t understand why.. I guess they really don’t feel a young healthy guy can have anything wrong with their heart?
I literally had to tell him about all the alcohol and drug abuse I did while taking AAS and even then he was still like “Alright I’ll do it for you but I don’t think there’s anything wrong”
From what I've heard (not sure if there's any merit to it), docs get a kick back from doing heart surgery, not preventative measures. It could only be rumors, but I've heard it from a few people.
Whether its the gear or the extra mass that comes with the gear, it's harder on one's heart to be heavier than to not be heavy.
Why aren't all of you on a bèta-blocker?
It's a heart friendly medication class and you should have no problem getting one prescribed to you. It should avoid many of the AAS-related heart issues.
I've been on Bisoprolol since I started juicing.
Ekg only detect ST segment elevation. Non ST segment elevation heart attacks slip right through. Chest pain needs to be assessed by a competent medical professional who knows what physical data that points towards heart attack.
LDL particle size and amount are definitely good things to know. You could have the right size of ldl particles but have a whole lot of them, like in my case.
Having both a high number of ldl particels and the small, dense, dangerous type is a huge red flag. Normally I don't recommend statins, but for this group I would. If you haven't check your particle size and amount, definitely do it.
Had similar experience (and an EKG).
I have enlarged hearts in my family. So I am being overly cautious. AAS/GH use just makes it worse. Despite this, mid 30 year olds getting echos seems to be frowned upon because there certainly is some resistance.
A regular CBC about every 3 months is good too, to keep an eye on hematocrit. Seems a lot of guys on here now are very aware of that and that is a good thing. My heart attack appeared to be mostly due to clotting. I didn't have any solid occlusion that needed angioplasty or a stent.
Just say you have chest pain. I've had 4-5 echos and another 3-4 cardiac MRIs at this point and I'm turning 27 in a month
Didnt you say you were giving yourself phlebotomys before your heart attack? What was your hematocrit at?

The double head dragon of nandrolone punching Lp(a) in da face. Yet the ramifications on thee good ole HDL-c and endothelial cells.
Could this be seen in your lipid numbers, if so, what might that look like (___LDL, ___ VLDL, etc)?
