Rheumatoid Arthritis & steroids

[DarkVader]

Hi all, what kind of anabolic steroids would be best for a 51yr old who has Rheumatoid Arthritis? Aside from the typical Prescription Medication that takes time to take effect. Also would GH be beneficial? Plz i need some solid info on this topic THANKS

I would think a cycle with aromatizing AAS might help. You'd want to try to get away with as high estrogen levels as possible and definately have test in there.

The figure is from (1). If you notice that high Test and Estrogen levels inhibit Th1 response. The RA in the figure is for rheumatoid arthritis.

With that in mind. Test, Deca, D-bol are probably the best bets for a positive outcome.

I'd say deca along with a fairly low dose of test. That should keep your joints lubed and your youth fountain flowing. Also you probably already know but get in the habit of taking glucosamine. It takes a while to work but it helps joints as well. Some people might argue with me but I would stay away from winstrol as it can tend to dry you out.

Here is a link to some journals and such that support testosterone and androgen therapy for arthritis.

Key thing is: if a little is good, a lot is NOT better. If you are taking other medications for arthritis steroids could increase the toxicity in your body. Read as much as you can so you can make an educated decision and talk to your doctor. He may suggest testosterone treatment.
