Gyno surgery - advice needed.

[HansNZ]

I am having a lump cut out from under my nipple. I know that they will ask me if I have used male hormones. Will they test for this?

What else will they check? Liver function, test. levels, etc?

I am currently dieting and using a nandrolone/test stack. I do not want to stop using these as I will lose muscle because I have been on a relatively long cycle and I am completely shut down.

I would also like to get this surgery now, so that I am healed in time for bulking in about 5 weeks.

Any advice anyone? What should I tell the doctors?

I would tell them....if they are doing it under general anesthesia, you run huge risks if they don't know you have taken steroids at any time in the past year....this is more relavent for steroids like prednisone, decadron, etc, that prevent inflammation, decrease autoimmune (i.e. not the anabolics)....however, they really should know.....

also, if you are currently taking them, it is not really the time to have the surgery...wait until you finish and let your body get back to baseline....then see what the gyno looks like....your call.

It will probably be done under local anesthetic. I get to choose. I am just wondering whether any of the tests they are likely to do will come up strange. Will they check for liver function if I have a local anesthetic?

I've had it done under general. I didn't tell the doctor jack shit. If you tell the doctor that you have done steriods it goes down on your medical records basically forever. You don't want to carry that around with you the rest of your life. If you're doing it under local, I wouldn't worry about it. Just go in there and have it done and don't say anything. The doctors aren't stupid, they can tell you're taking steriods. And no, they don't do any tests out of the blue to see if you're doing steriods. You should be able to hit gym in about two weeks. That's what I did.

I had it done. They didnt ask me anything about steroids. They also took blood test and mine came back fine. I was knocked out during the surgery. It was the best 2000$ i have ever spent and my doc took the glands out of both breasts so i never have to worry about it again. I used to look at deca and get itchy nips, now i look at my nolva's and laugh!!!!!!!!!!

$2,000 yikes! I am poor at the moment. Fortunately the surgery will be free where I live.
