Cholesterol and being taken off of AS and Test

[JBRIII]

Meds?

Why doesn't he just put you on Zocor or Lipitor? I would think if you need to be on your meds (Deca and Androgel) for the HIV and to keep your mass then he should be just as concerned about that as you cholesterol. Tell him you want to stay on it and to put you on a statin drug stat instead.

P.S. The Testim seems to be working for me. My level went from 168 to 423 in 3 weeks.

zocor/lipitor will tear the liver up and are a last resort. they are probably contraindicated with aas use

But isn't he using injectables? I'm on lipitor and haven't had any negative effects, but I only take the Testim Gel. I thought the injectables didn't effect the liver like orals? Or you could go with Whelchol which works throught the digestive tract.

The liver metabolizes everything you put in your body. The liver is the organ that takes the esters off the drugs you inject so they work in your body. This is not a particularly taxing process for most people, but a doctor will look at it. It is most likely contraindictaed to give something as liver toxic as a statin cholesterol drug (zocor etc) to someone on injectable or orals. Gels, and this is my guess, don't need to go through the liver, they are going through the skin in their active form and don't need a 17A group to resist being deactivated during digestion./ so they are not in anyway taxing on the liver.

"and am sucking on the last paper d-bol for a long time."

The nandrolone and T-gel have little effect on lipids. The d-bol on the other hand, given the interaction with other agents could.

If anything drop the d-bol and any other C-17 oral.

The trig level is getting into the range where it could cause pancreatitis.

Something else here besides the androgens are at work. Nandrolone and test shouldn't have that effect on lipids.

Watch the niacin, it can be liver toxic in some in the gram dose range.
