Getting a physical done while on AAS

[oster]

So I have a physical coming up, and I am wondering if being on a cycle is going to effect my results or not, mainly high blood pressure.
Did a quicksearch on google and couldnt find anything. If I cant get any help I think I might just walk into a clinic and ask..

[ergie]

I personally would put the physical off until your cycle is over and pct is done

[pseclint]

what are you using?

[oster]

Test E, and Deca. It is for my PPL so my blood pressure is def. something that has to be normal, are AAS known to raise your blood pressure? I cant find any info anywhere, I think I might have to suck it up and go talk to an actual doctor...

PS, I already started my cycle, so I'm not gonna stop now, might have to hold off the physical some how untill im done my PCT... shit. Always plan ahead kids.

[under_construct]

Is the physical necessary for a job or insurance purpose ?
Or are you having any health problems ?

If you answer yes to one of the two above, then go thru with it, but tell the doc what you are taking.

If the answer is no to both questions, then put it off till well after PCT and make sure they give you the full gambit of tests. This way you'll know if your PCT worked well or not.

If you don't know this, you shouldn't be using man.
You are risking your health without a clue what you are doing.
Learn, be safe and minimize your regrets later.

I had to take a physical while i was on a cycle ( I had no choice )
and i was on test e , tren e, and EQ
and my blood pressure was through the roof like 172/90
so the doctor was extremely worried about me, now that i'm done that cycle everything is back to normal, so m y advice is try to wait man until your done pct for sure.

I had one done, only thing was colesteral was higher, but nothing at all he seemed to be to concerned over.. and been on few years, imo not big deal..

Shit man, thats crazy high! I do know what I'm doing and I know the effects, and side effects, I guess with all the reading I did, I didnt come accross, anything that specifcly said "causes high blood pressure" but now I think back of everything i read it adds up, and reading about bloodpressure it all makes sense now.

I have a feeling I am going to cut my cycle short. I am going to be doing a lot of flying in the next couple months, and if my blood pressure gets close to 172/90, who knows what could happen to me in the air!

Thanks for the help guys

It all depends on the person, some people's BP goes back to normal after starting a cycle, your body adjusts to having steroids in it's system. others will get high blood pressure and it can stay like that for the remainder of the cycle. Becareful bro, yopur health is much more important than adding a couple of pounds!!!

High BP is one of the most dangerous side effects one can get from AAS use. IMO EVERYONE should be checking there bp regularly, at least once a week to make sure everything is in line. I have a home monitor that I use at least twice a week. AAS does cause my bp to rise to the borderline high range sometimes. If I ever got as high as 172/90 I'd stop ASAP and see my doc.

Use the pharmacys tester, most have them

Unreliable if your arms more than 14-15 inches.

totally agree, it was a dumb move of me to not check my bp,
but it wasint that high all the way through my cycle.
after I had it checked at the doctors i bought a home monitor so i would check it every day and my bp was around 150 / 80. ( I know still high)
now that i'm done i'm all back to normal

I did the shoppers thing as well....but at the back of th slip it said that you needed the pharmacy guy to interpret the results?

Do you do cardio?

I noticed that after a few wks of cardio on my precontest cycle, my BP dropped by about 20/10.
