anyone else use a statin on cycle

[Roicey]

I’m using rosuvastatine twice a week while I’m on masteron, tren and primo as a precaution
45 years old and I have a family history of strokes and heart attacks
my cardiologist keeps an eye on things but I’m doing this on my own because I don’t want him knowing about my steroid use
I’m getting some side effects with the stomach, is this something that will go away or should I go a different route

I dont use statins or any medicines, you can check with @RoidRage69 I think he uses statins or other meds for BP

crestor causes stomach problems. do pravastatin as its the mildest on sides. however, id caution against statin use unless your cholesterol is in the red severely AND you have a poor calcium score test result. long term statin use will cause severe memory problems.

 

[ReturnOfTheMeathead]

why are you on both primo and masteron? drop masteron imo.

Often as not the so-called 'family issue' is related to them being fat, diet, out of shape and a lack of exercise.

great question.

most steroid users don't give a shit about their heart health lets be honest. but if their dick stops working then they flip out

the truth is steroid use absolutely strains your heart especially at the dosing that people are using and for the amount of time they're using it
So it's important to make sure you work with a cardiologist to ensure you are doing everything you can to prevent a stroke or heart attack.

Monstro not worried about this. Life is too short might as well enjoy it

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

you need to be open with your cardiologist

doctors have to follow HIPAA which means you are safe talking to them

 

[e2]

your family history is definitely a red flag

statins should be used IF needed temporarily

 

[chesty]

it sounds like you are at risk for problems be very careful about your steroid use

 

[ROIDDERS]

don't abuse steroids and it won't be an issue

 

[ceo]

Bros maybe consider keeping your cycle short and keeping the dosages very low

 

[dylangemelli]

You can use a statin on cycle, yes.. im also on crestor however you should be asking yourself this question... "should i be using steroids if i need to be on a statin?"

thats for you to decide as i dont know your scenario for needing it in depth but i would be very careful moving forward... crestor, like lipitor, can have side effects especially depending on the dose you are taking... for most, its muscle pain but there are also other side effects to be aware of...

 

[RickRock]

I think you should be honest with your cardiologist. It would be in your own best interest

 

[25homes]

I have seen ppl who use heavy tren for too long but otherwise not needed

 

[RoySimpson]

Dont abuse steroids be open with your doctors!

There’s a lot of truth to that
