Sweetie, Prednasone is not a pain killer at all - it's a steroid drug used mostly for allergies, asthma and skin conditions.  Do not take anymore of this drug.  I don't know where or who you got it from, but it is not going to help a back injury.  In fact, steroids can jack you up in many ways.  It can make your blood sugar go totally out of whack even if you're not a diabetic, it can make you very volatile and hateful, not to mention, it will make you gain weight faster than 1000 burgers from McDonald's.  Have you ever heard of "roid-rage" - well it is caused by using steroid medications and it is true - people get violent and mean on this drug.  Unfortunately, it is widely used for the above mentioned reasons, only when there is no other solution, but to try to use it for pain is way off base and you are going to end up hurting yourself more than you already are.  I think you need to head to the doctor and let him give you a pain medication that also has an anti-inflammatory in it - quit letting your friends or whoever it is giving you these drugs pretend to be doctors.  Your headed down a dangerous path.

I'm not sure who he thinks he's fooling trying to say he used the steroids with knowing they were steroids. Right Barry!  I always puts things on my tougue and rub on my body without knowing what they are.  You knew the rules.  You should've made sure what it was before doing them if you wanted to stick around for your standing ovation.

Do you mean "dexamethasone steroid"?

I would say a good majority are, but the question is whether the steroid is considered a performance enhancing steroid or not. Andro was legal while Mark McGuire was using it, but subsequently banned. BALCO was reported to manufacture steroids that are desgined to avoid being detected during testing.

If the proper "stack" is used and you don't over do it in the gym steroids are pretty safe and give great results. Its the things you hear about "juicers" that give steroid's a bad name. Just remember to do the research and find out what you want from the drug. i.e. more endurance, more muscle mass, or just get stronger. Don't jump into it without knowing what your getting into. Also, its addicting because of the fast gains you will see. \n\nHope this helpes:\n\nAnabolic steroids (AS) are effective in enhancing athletic performance. The trade off, however, is the occurrence of adverse side effects which can jeopardize health. Since AS have effects on several organ systems, a myriad of side effects can be found. In general, the orally administered AS have more adverse effects than parenterally administered AS. In addition, the type of AS is not only important for the advantageous effects, but also for the adverse effects. Especially the AS containing a 17-alkyl group have potentially more adverse affects, in particular to the liver. One of the problems with athletes, in particular strength athletes and bodybuilders, is the use of oral and parenteral AS at the same time ("stacking"), and in dosages which may be several (up to 40 times) the recommended therapeutical dosage. The frequency and severity of side effects is quite variable. It depends on several factors such as type of drug, dosage, duration of use and the individual sensitivity and response.\n\nLiver Function\n\nAS may exert a profound adverse effect on the liver. This is particularly true for orally administered AS. The parenterally administered AS seem to have less serious effects on the liver. Testosterone cypionate, testosterone enanthate and other injectable anabolic steroids seem to have little adverse effects on the liver. However, lesions of the liver have been reported after parenteral nortestosterone administration, and also occasionally after injection of testosterone esters. The influence of AS on liver function has been studied extensively. The majority of the studies involve hospitalized patients who are treated for prolonged periods for various diseases, such as anemia, renal insufficiency, impotence, and dysfunction of the pituitary gland. In clinical trials, treatment with anabolic steroids resulted in a decreased hepatic excretory function. In addition, intra hepatic cholestasis, reflected by itch and jaundice, and hepatic peliosis were observed. Hepatic peliosis is a hemorrhagic cystic degeneration of the liver, which may lead to fibrosis and portal hypertension. Rupture of a cyst may lead to fatal bleeding.\n\nBenign (adenoma's) and malign tumors (hepatocellular carcinoma) have been reported. There are rather strong indications that tumors of the liver are caused when the anabolic steroids contain a 17-alpha-alkyl group. Usually, the tumors are benign adenoma's, that reverse after stopping with steroid administration. However, there are some indications that administration of anabolic steroids in athletes may lead to hepatic carcinoma. Often these abnormalities remain asymptomatic, since peliosis hepatis and liver tumors do not always result in abnormalities in the blood variables that are generally used to measure liver function.\n\nAS use is often associated with an increase in plasma activity of liver enzymes such as aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (AP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT). These enzymes are present in hepatocytes in relatively high concentrations, and an increase in plasma levels of these enzymes reflect hepatocellular damage or at least increased permeability of the hepatocellular membrane.\n\nIn longitudinal studies of athletes treated with anabolic steroids, contradictory results were obtained on the plasma activity of liver enzymes (AST, AST, LDH, GGT, AP). In some studies, enzymes were i

Hey Man,\n\nI've been looking over the claims that Gakic makes. I can't imagine that it would be "eating" your muscles up. Are you eating enough protein and carbs? Your muscles can get eaten up if your bofy fat percentage is already low and you are exercising, as well. I'm thinking of trying Gakic and I dould use some advice. If you get a chance, shoot me a message. \n\n-Spooker

Boykins currently has 25 blocks for his career. Not sure how many of those were on the same player. Don't count them up yet, though. He's still chugging along. If drugs is going to keep Chris Andersen out for two years, getting blocked by Boykins ought to at least be a two-game suspension! LOL

Steroids and Triterpenes

"Steroid" is a general term, strictly it refers to any hormone whose molecule looks like that of cholesterol!\n\nThe most talked-about steroids are the anabolic steroids, such as testosterone.  These are what are used by athletes such as bodybuilders to achieve gains in muscle mass.  Dehydroxytestosterone is one long fancy chemical name for a popular anabolic.\n\nBut, there are also such things as "catabolic" steroids.  "Catabolic" means to break down ("anabolic" means build up, of course!).  Cortisol, a catabolic hormone made by our own bodies, is produced in response to various stressors; it tames our immune system and tries to stop it from overreacting.  In the process, it has to break down muscle tissue and become prepared to store excess energy in the form of fat.  People with excess cortisol (generally due to a tumor) generally have what is known as a Cushing's disorder, and obesity is its hallmark.\n\nCortisol and molecules like it are also given as drugs for various conditions, including multiple sclerosis, lupus, cancers, asthma, allergies, and the list goes on.  Cortisol's family is the "corticosteroids", and includes corticosterone, methylprednilosone, prednisone, and dexamethasone.  People do get put on these for various conditions, again... so if they're telling you they're taking steroids, it's probably not the kind that'll buff 'em up! ;-)

The answer is probably not. They primarily use them for muscle bulk, but they have the added side effect of promoting other types of growth.\n The main issue now with steroids is the issue of pharmocogenetic medicines, which are particularly adapted to certain genetic types, promoting certain positive functions within the body. This has led to the issue of gene doping where a foreign DNA strand  could be introduced through a specially designed drug. For example, a drug could be developed to promote oxygen saturation in the blood, which at present many athletes use Ethryopoetin, a kidney drug, to do. \n It is unlikely that steroid and general drug use will ever be stopped in sport. The development of synthetic hormones and better masking agents will make detection even more difficult. Also, at present testing for some drugs such as ethryopoetin (EPO) is incredibly difficult, with a EPO test requiring 180 seperate tests and needing highly speciallised equipment and testing. \n This situation may be explained by the particualar focus that the media have on some sports, such as cycling. With more minority sports, with less athletes competing in worldwide competition, it may appear that the problem is more serious than actually is the truth.\n If you can read French then Massacre a la Chaine is worth a read. It focuses primarilly on the Festina affair, where a staff member of a cycling team was discovered with doping products in the car he was using in the Tour De France. It details not only the actual events in the 1998 scandal, for which his team, Festina, were disqualified, but also his own cycling career and drug use then. But I beg you, please don't think all cyclists are like that- most cyclists and tifosi (cycling fans) are ashamed.

Yes, cortizone is a steroid. You won't gain weight if it's used only for a short period of time, however, if taken for a long time, you can gain weight from it.
