I do understand that bloodworm can come back normal and there may still be issues, but I would just assume from a physiological perspective that the tumor had nothing if little to do with methylated hormones.
If some one has a baseball size tumor, there is something else going on, an underlying issue aside from the steroid use.
Never make an absolute statement! Absolutes are very rare!!
Here's an excerpt from the PMCCHRIS thread...
"This year so far has been extremely physically rough on me, on 3/1/2013 I was hospitalized with extreme abdominal pain. The week leading up I was having an insane level of discomfort, the day before I actually saw a GI specialist. The problem was completely dismissed as indigestion.
I collapsed from a level of pain I had never suffered from before, and there isn't alot I have not put my body through in my short years on this planet. I was admitted with a growth coming from my liver. Went through all the bells and whistles. Initial reports were a growth coming off of my liver the size of a grapefruit. Apparently it shifted in my abdomen and was displacing all my organs.
I spend a little over a week in the hospital, the tumor went back to its original place.
I got the biopsy results back. It was an adenoma with a-typical cell patterns. Adenomas are growths caused by hormones. YES steroids NOT JUST GH CAUSE TUMORS. The A-typical cells are possible malignancies, malignant cancer cells.
On 3/2/13 I had my surgery. I stopped ALL anabolics and peptides when I found out, dropped down to 200mg of test. training got kicked down to soccer mom level as did my calorie intake. The growth apparently continued to grow at an alarming speed regardless.
They removed approximately 40% of my liver as well as a tumor the size of a volleyball. The tumor nearly doubled in size".
