What I'm I doing wrong?

[PMiranda]

Hey guys, I posted about 2 months ago about a case of gyno I developed during my P-Plex cycle. I stopped the cycle and quickly began my PCT along with 20mg Nolva everyday for 3 weeks. The only symptoms I had were puffy nipples and soreness.
Fast forward to 2 weeks ago I noticed that my gyno had returned and I also developed a small lump under each nipple. I'm scared to order more nolvadex because 1 of my orders was suized and I received a dirty letter from the government saying I was ordering controlled substances.
So I did a little research and found out epidrol helps with gyno. I am currently running a 4 week cycle of 20/20/20/20 in hopes that it will work. I also scheduled an apointment with my doctor to see what the hell is wrong with me.
My question is why didn't the nolvadex work? I'm trying to avoid surgury. I'm also now having to wear an undershirt to hide the nipples

ask your doctor to prescribe u some nolva

i would get some blood work done so you can have a clear idea of what the problem is and then go from there....without that any steps taken will just be pissing in the wind....

I think you should stop trying to prescribe yourself medications. It is possible, although unlikely that your Nolva may have been bunk. I would go to the doctor and tell him exactly what happened and how you think it was caused. If he doesn't know the answer (because GP's cannot know everything), he has sources to get the answers or refer you to a specialist. This specialist will be able to get you the help you need.

I understand you are trying to avoid surgery and are probably afraid to tell your doctor you used steroids. But for the health of your titties, you need to put all that aside and tell your doc everything.

well....theres good and bad sides to that...steroid use is considered a "pre-existing" condition and can affect your insurance coverage for the rest of your life.....so owning up with your doctor might not be a good idea....blood work is though....and remember for the most part doctors have no clue when it comes to steroid usage....there a some very easy ways to fix your problem....you jsut have to know what it is....get bloodwork....

pre-existing conditions ONLY affect coverage when you've had a coverage gap. when theres a gap, for the length of time that you had no coverage up to a 12 month maximum after you start the new coverage they can deny coverage of the pre-existing condition. Thats it, they can't deny treatment indefinitely, or if you have no gap in coverage. its in the HIPAA laws brought into effect in 96 (I think) by clinton.

Doc apointment is this Wednesday. I'm going to continue the epidrol because I'm already a week into it. I'm a police officer so I don't plan on telling her I used steroids. I'm aware of patient doctor privacy but I don't want to risk it. I'm just gonna tell her my tits have been puffy and hurting for the last 2 months.
I've also noticed that my condition worsens when I take the p5p. I'm taking 1 cap (10mg) a day as instructed on the bottle. I think my tits don't like p5p.

Also, does anyone know if blue cross blue shield HMO covers the gyno surgury? I've had this insurance for 4 years and I have yet to visit my doctor so I don't know. Damn active army life demanded me to visit my doctor, and now that I'm out I refuse to go for anything short of a decapitation!

so if he ever loses his job and has an insurance gap he is screwed.....ive got an older freind with health problems and because he is a documented steroid user he has basically no/minimal coverage from his insurance......

I don't see what the big deal is with telling ur doc u took p-plex. I could understand if u were using illegal injectable steroids, but the stuff ur using is legal. Tell ur doc.
