When going in for a physical and having blood work done, if the doctor asks if you are doing steroids or not, based on the test results, is it best to admit to them or not? I would imagine so, just for the sake of honestly gauging your health. What are your experiences with this?
Admit to Using Gear With Doctors?

Yes tell them. They can not tell anyone and you might find that he discovers some health concerns.
Peace.

Tell them. My Dr is very forward thinking and is the one who writes me the Test scripts.

Cool!
WEIGHT77, that's hilarious! That's like a drug fiend befriending a pharmacist, who is also a hophead. That rocks!
That's reassuring, that it is against the oath of doctors to divulge information about yourself to anyone at all.
Is my use of gear something I would want to bring up to him beforehand, or only if he asks?

Be upfront with them
I say no, for insurance reason, my doc back in VA freaked out
he asked if i was taking supplements because they know the
signs your standing there with no close on i I told him
i was taking creatine and he put it in my file and did extensive
blood work and of course it came out fine.

I haven't said anything, but I've only been o the doctor for things that were wrong with me, not a regular check-up. My blood-work and such has been through the HRT clinic I use.
I just don't know if I'd trust a doctor. I don't have a regular doctor locally anyway. I just go the clinic or take an ambulance to the emergency room. LOL

You guys are phuking crazy. Don't tell them shit. If you think that they won't put that info in your file, you're nuts. Confidentiality my ass.....
You could be denied medical benefits, lose your employment, be denied life insurance or a life insurance payout.
I have told my wife that if I ever keel over that she is to make sure I am dead and then, before calling ANYONE, she is to clear ANYTHING that is gear related from the house. THEN call the police or ambulance or whatever. Otherwise, she could miss out on my life insurance.
I know that there are times when you might have something that you are taking that could not mix well with other drugs that your doctor might prescribe BUT... go out of your way to NOT tell them unless you absolutely have to. For every 1 cool doctor who will understand or be on gear himself, there are a thousand that will at the very least chastize you.
Just my opinion but........

it's a catch 22 don't tell them they could prescribe something that doesn't mix with the gear.
tell them, they write it down, later you can loose your health insurance or life insurance.
