We encourage everyone to get their blood work done Here are the reasons why: General health and wellbeing. Your blood work is a roadmap to your body and your overall health. 90% of the diseases and ailments you could have in your lifetime, including cancer, and many other terminal illnesses will show themselves in your blood work long before they manifest symptoms on the outside of your body. It’s wise to know what your cholesterol and other lipids are at, along with your liver and kidney markers. Some guys are not comfortable asking their doc for a blood work test while using steroids, as normally the Dr. is the one requesting the blood work. If you have insurance, then I would highly recommend making an appt with your doc and asking for a full panel blood work to be done. I would make sure to ask them for all of the endocrine testing.
If your not comfortable letting your doc know your on steroids, then I would look at using some of the online services for doing blood work. This may sounds weird getting your blood work done from an online lab but its really pretty easy. Theres dozens of online labs that specialize in blood work. You get on the site, sign up for an acct, select the blood work testing you want done and they will give you a list of lab corps. and many other similar companies you can visit to have your blood drawn. They will draw the blood and send it off to the lab for analysis and email you the results so you can privately read them. Most of these companies make deciphering the blood work very easy as they have graphs and guides to show you if your in the normal limits, or high/low. If you would like a recommendation for one of these labs please let me know. we have a few we have been very happy with thus far.
