Diabetics and steroids need some help

[Smokey729]

I have used steroids in 2 years because I came down with lots of medical problems one of them is diabetes i am just on week 2 I'm take anadrol 50mg a day for 5weeks and test400 2 times a week and i am getting 300mg of test from my Urologist and he gives me anadrgel 1.62% =81.2mgs a day but if im lucky i get only 10% of the gel so far I haven't seen anything bad with blood sugar lvls and with my a1c. I have been looking on the web for info I have talked to my doc she said that it would make my blood sugar sky rocket and if anything I think it has been lower. Now I trying to put on as much mass as I can if anyone can help me it would be a big help

Steroids lower blood sugar. Find a new doctor.

yeah your doctor seems clueless, which doesn't surprise me when it comes to HRT

OP. I am Type II diabetic, and have been for years. I take no meds for my diabetes. Your doc is full of shit. TRT will have no detrimental effect on your diabetes. Eat right, and do cardio every day you are in the gym. Also, get yourself some cinnamon capsules and take 4-6 of them three times a day.

Im a type 1 diabeticsince I was 12 yrs old, so for 22 yrs! When doctors talk about steroids shooting blood sugar up, they are talking about corticosteroids which are catabolic cortisol! See just like stress raises bloodsugar thats cortisal, it breaks down amino acids and makes glucose in liver, an evolutionary response back in the caveman days when threatened by something body used this as a way to make energy to get away and survive! Anabolic steroids especially with lifting and cardio will actially improve bloodsugar due to increase uptake of glucose and amino acids being stored in muscle!

No metformin man? I'd do just about anything to get a script for that.
