Has anyone seen or heard all the Low T lawsuit ads. C'mon seriously?

[Jack Diesel]

Lately I've been hearing a lot of lawyer infomercials for problems with testosterone prescriptions for Low T. Then I saw this on Facebook. It's a whole page dedicated to finding people who have taken test for low T and think it caused them to have a stroke, have high cholesterol, or have a morbidly obese wife with man hands, etc. C'mon is this gonna ruin it for us guys who are on TRT for good reason?

I saw them too. Lawyers will always do what they can to get rich

We have story after story about Drs that have no idea how to prescribe the right protocol or how to control the sides....only a matter of time

its the doctors.

first off they prescribe TRT to people and don't bother to give them an AI.. plus those guys ALREADY have major problems.. adding hormones causes even more problems. no AI makes them bloat and add water weight.. causing their already high BP to go through the roof. plus they already eat shit, so their high cholesterol goes up more.

look guys think about it. if you are in bad shape the body will adjust and suppress ITSELF. so these guys should FIRST get into shape, exercise, eat right.. THEN be put on TRT. not get thrown on TRT and get kicked out of the dr office.

I work at a Law Firm and 6 months ago there were big Class action lawsuit lawyers calling around recruiting other firms to get involved because of the latest research......Fucking Lawyers are fuckers 90 percent of the time.....The research is bullshit ....I did notice that shit about a week ago on TV....I even had a friend who was on TRT go off it because he believed all the bullshit that was shown on CNN....

^^^ well if a doc hands out HRT to someone who is in bad shape already, with high bp, high cholesterol without telling them they need to get in better shape first then I say sue their ass for sure.

I know more about hormones than my Dr and he listens to me so this is tolerable but that's not the way it should be, HE should be the expert

I went an did a urinalysis and the doc said she saw protein in the urine and was curious what was going on.. so I told her I was on anabolic steroids. then we get into a conversation about how being a bodybuilder will elevate creatinine and BUN levels since we are breaking down muscle almost everyday. she is confused and starts using her IPAD looking up what I told her, it was hilarious. all those years of med school and they have to use their IPAD to look up basic shit? the poor lady had no idea what the terms I was throwing at her meant, I found it funny.

Funny, my Dr was so concerned about my bun & creatine levels I finally let him send me to a kidney specialist so he would shut up about it......kidney Dr had bodybuilder patients so he knew all this, checked a few things & cleared. You are so dead on Steve


Ps...and we pay them for this

I've been seeing at least 5-6 of these commercials a day recently.

exactly. she kept asking me over and over "so you are saying since you have been bodybuilding your BUN has always been high?" ... I was like YES!! and she would ask it again while using her IPAD.

now if we were to stop lifting for 3 weeks then do bloods it would come in normal. but imagine doing a hard leg workout then testing the next morning, it would be sky high

Yeah I've been recently diagnosed with low T myself. Seeing all these commercials scared me a bit, but after researching and reading alot of the comments on here its just doing it smart

 

[proman]

Besides, you know lawyers. Its just something for them to chase and make a buck. Everything is so corrupt. Sick of it all. Just better to handle things yourself.

okay here is the point I have been trying to make on this thread. it is up to the individual to make smart choices with their own health and not listen to doctors. this means exhaust all remedies first before resorting to TRT, doctors jobs are to get you in and out fast and make money off you, they run a business. now if you have changed your health, exercised, improved your bp/cholesterol, etc.... etc... and your T levels still haven't improved then go for it cause no one should go through life with low T.

but if you are just a fat lazy fuck who sits on the couch everyday watching tv and drinking beer and eating chips then no shit your T is going to be low and going on TRT is just going to fuck up your health more and CAN be dangerous. a lot of these lawsuits where people have actually gotten hurt are people like this who should have never been put on HRT to begin with.

surgeries as well.. if you are in bad shape then having an unnecessary surgery can actually kill you because your body is too weak to recover, a doctor should tell someone "hey you gotta lose 30 pounds BEFORE I do this surgery on you"... many docs will not do this, they just go in no matter what

Yeah this is exactly right. For me personally, I work out 5 times a week. Have been doing that since my teens. I eat fairly healthy when the kids arent bugging me for pizza on the weekends. LOL. I'm pretty active, don't have a desk job. I swing a hammer for a living. But Stevesmi is right. If your a fat lazy ass, and you go on TRT, I kinda find that retarded. You need to get your health right and your body in shape first. Your T levels are prob low cuz your fat. Any doctor who would put a obese person on test outta have their license taken.

I think what pisses me off more about this is how this is going to lead to more public misunderstanding.

It's already frustrating that steroids are schedule IV and have a stigma. We're the first species on earth to take control of our hormones / muscle building processes, this should be seen as a huge achievement.
