I have been lifting seriously and consistenly for about three years. I have done a few cycles, mostly deca, test and a few other odds and ends thrown in. I recently did several weeks of Halotestin 20 mg (8 pills) a day five days a week. It is great for making a lean body hard. I am currently in the middle of a test cycle. I am in mid 40s, 5’9" and 160 lbs. I will get a complete physical soon and I need to know what to say to my Dr. to get the right blood work done. I would like to make sure all is well with my liver. I also want him to check testosterone level. I am hoping that since I will be taking test shots, my natural test will be low and he will prescibe test for me. That way it will be legal and cheap. Any advice is greatly appreciated. I do not plan to tell my Dr about any roids I have taken.
You would just be getting the standard set of tests. The SMAC suite of tests will probably reveal high creatinine (no problem, it does not mean kidney damage) and may show a worsened or even very bad blood lipid profile (“cholesterol.”)
The liver function test would also be a standard one, expect most of the enzymes to be harmlessly elevated. However if your doctor does not know you are taking steroids he will have to be wondering why they are elevated. Serum bilirubin is the one to be concerned about it it’s elevated.
