How do you guys get a good (understanding ) doctor ?

[small but working on it]

Just curious because I know it is intelligent to have bloodwork done before, during and after cycle but how do you know what Dr is going to be cool with it. In todays environment, it can be a bit scary to admit anything to anyone and I sure dont want anything in my personal health records. How do you guys handle that and is there a list of sports doctors that I could find that may be sensitive to my needs ? Thanks in advance.

The same way you fund a good doctor for anything else; by shopping around. Keep looking until you find one you can both trust and is knowlegable about your medical needs. Doctors that speacialize in sports medicine are a good place to start and if your in a fairly large metro area, you won't be the first, or last, patient with aas toxicity concerns. Also, don't worry about gettin narced because your protected by both doctor patient confidentiality laws and HIPPA. A good doctor is concerned first and foremost about the patients health. Good luck.

you must develop a relationship with your doctor and banker. this takes time but is invaluable.

a good doctor is concerned moast about their patient, but HIPPA does not cover illeagle substances. it is scary finding an understanding doctor but they are out there and you just have to look.

google hormone replacement therapy and the state you reside in. Some HRT clinics will do webcam consultations after you recieve a physical from a general practicioner and have an independent lab to do a blood screen after they're results are faxed to the clinic. After that, they mail you the gear-and it's all legal/legit. Well, sorta. Ya never know when big brother might decide to prosecute anyone they want using The Patriot Act. Once you are charged, it's up to you to retain an attorney and fight it-which will be about a $5K retainer for starts. So with that being said, don't be too cavalier about what you do.

Cops lie and fabricate charges all of the time. Even if they know they don't have a solid case they'll hope you're stupid an not show up for court or be too broke to afford a good criminal attorney. This way you'll get some lame public defender that likely played 18 holes of golf last weekend with the prosecutor in your case. Both are on the same payroll, so neither is going to comprimise too much-leaving you pretty much fucked all the way around.

People misunderstand what HIPPA is. Before anyone posts bullshit posts about HIPPA you should read up on it.

I had a guy come in to our ER and he was a fucking dumbass. he was having what we call pseudo seizures(google it if you dont know what it is) so he gets pissed cause he is not getting his ativan and narcs that he says help come out of them. one night he got violent so we had to drop some bows on his ass and he was escorted off. he kept throwing HIPPA up in our face saying we cant do this to him.

HIPPA in a nutshell is we can not tell people about your treatment and or condition w/o thier consent. You may say this applies to A.SS. No it does not. if he charts that shit and lets say the feds or anyone in LE wants them they can get them. if he feels you are hurting yourself or are a risk to yourself and others he can call LE. HIPPA does not protect anyone. it was put into place because of hollywood and stars wanting thier privacy.

I 2nd that explanation. HIPPA does not protect you if the Doc thinks you are a risk to yourself or others. If he/she does, they can legally drop a dime.

I heard that if you tell your psychiatrist that you are about to commit a crime that could risk the well being of yourself or someone else they are required to drop dime regardless of Dr/patient confidentiality.

Can taking steroids really be a risk to you or someone else's well being??? I say not really-unless you wanna consider the legal risks and punishment involved for getting caught in possession? However, the general public will definitely think you're a risk to yourself from a physical health perspective at the very least.

True. They also are required to drop a dime if you confess to murder, etc.
