I was offered a presciption for steroids in 1952. I went to the library and found out what they were and I told my doctor no.
I knew all kinds of athletes who took them I don't think any one really benefitted from their use.

What I thought was odd was that every study i read said that although their conclusion found no real threat from steroids, they shoudln't be used. Personally, I think that we have yet to really find out how bad steroids are. After I read the studies, I telephoned my brother who does some research in weird medical stuff. He said that the data about the East German women swimmers wsa released a few years back. It, I think might be the only longterm data on steroid use & humans. I googled it this morning but couldn't find anything. Does anyone have any idea how to get. Germany has no freedom of information act for old East German government information.
