Blood drive... REPORTS TO AUTHORITIES?!

[guyzcool]

Please read the attached file. So some background... so I signed up for a blood drive at my college today. I figured why not.. well I'm running test e @500 mg/wk for the last few weeks. On the paper I was given it said that "abnormal blood tests with be reported to the authorities", now this is where I'm freaked out. I donate on the 30th, and I know they are going to test my blood, will they be able to see the Test E in my system... and then will they report that to L.E. any insight on this or experience please let me know. I'm a little spooked.

I think it is more of any infected blood rather and I would not think they'd test for AAS.

You think they check your blood for testosterone levels?
They check it for viruses. And for harmful/dirty blood.

Ok, but why report to the authorities? Why do they care?? I might call the company who I'm giving to (Banner health) and ask what they would report to the authorities. It's my right to know... right?

If you are in good health and had a good donation history I don't think you need to worry. It is routine that blood gets tested for certain dangerous diseases.

I know that part and that they test for hemocrit levels. Mine will be high, they probably won't care... but I'm still confused what they report to the authorities!

If its too high. I believe above 54. They will not let you donate.

@Michael Scally MD @Dr JIM what are your thoughts on this? I don't normally recruit the heavy hitters here... does anyone else have experience with giving blood while on aas.

If you are healthy and not a drug addict, nothing will happen if you donate blood besides someones life possibly being saved. Youre thinking too much.

Define drug addict... I don't do anything besides aas, but that is considered a drug. I guess you're right I am thinking into it too much

Drug addicts such as those who use cocaine, heroin or even meth. If you don't use these drugs or are not carrying some nasty disease you should be OK.

I see that. Tomorrow morning I'm going to call the company and ask. I'll update the log here with what they say. This may help people in the future!

Dude you are completely fine. There is also/should be a number to call on the back to have your blood destroyed. Just say you caught the flu and they won't even test the blood.

But they will not test for aas. I donate all the time, every 8 weeks unless I'm doing double reds then I donate every 120 days.

I've been on aas for longer than you've been alive and give blood on a regular basis. I've never had a problem. You're over thinking this whole thing. Give blood, you may save a life!

Let me ask you... who have you given blood through? And what compounds were in your system at the time (s)

Calm down and chill, as you have nothing to worry about.

I called them, three times and had no answer. I'm thinking I'll be okay, but man if I get pinched... I'd have to check the laws, because in Colorado I'm not even sure if it's a misdemeanor if you're caught with aas in your system. And even then I'll only have high test Levels..

First they have to prove you took aas. Which you would have to admit to. Second, no judge is going to issue a search warrant based on high testosterone levels.

Even then I have like 3 weeks left in my cycle. It's pretty well hidden but I could easily toss it and not have a problem.
