very high cholesterol

[nilla]

Last time tested I was close to 400! I'm perscribed crestor and will be starting it soon and retesting.. this test. Was done off steroids for a long time and is worst now I'm sure due to being on..anyway this is all getting tricky because I don't want doc knowing I'm on but I feel they should know to proper diagnose?? Not sure how the numbers will look on next test due to being on might raise some red flags? I have a Fam history of this and just looking for some insight what others with the same issues are duing and how they go about this..I m currently blasting and cruising been on for over two years and would like to be able to run a trt for life but kinda on the wall due to my health..any word would be great to hear on this matter thanks guys

May be a silly question, but were you fasting while giving bloodwork?

What is your current diet like? Current health supplementation?

Yes...I've had a few test in the past and all were horrible...I've known this for about 8 years and have been on lipitor in the past which took me down to around the 250 range..I. have neglected myself and ignored my condition for some time and waking up to the fact its do or die time...

Having high cholesterol and going on is not wise my friend. After all, testosterone is cholesterol.

What is your reasoning for not just being honest with your doctor? He's not going to get you in any legal trouble, and he has a professional obligation to help minimize any health problems resulting from the AAS.

I have it in my notes (vague notes, my apologies)

Here is a website explaining it. You can do further investigation on your on.

Testosterone, like all steroid hormones, is produced from the precursor molecule cholesterol, a fatty substance derived from the foods you eat, such as red meat, cheese and eggs. In the synthesis of testosterone, cholesterol is turned into testosterone via a complex biosynthetic pathway that includes several intermediate molecules. These intermediates also can be used in your body to perform other functions. For example, the steroid synthesis pathway that produces testosterone also can produce female sex hormones, the stress hormone cortisol and the fluid regulation hormone aldosterone, if the correct enzymes are present.

It is generally recommended to keep cholesterol you eat to a minimum when "on".
