What's up ladies and gentlemen,
My name is Chris and I just signed up to this site.
I have a question for you guys so let me tell you my story first:
When I was a baby (3 months old) I was diagnosed with neuroblastoma cancer. I was treated and when I was about a year and a half it was all over and I made it (yay!)
Now this:
I'm a big guy (6'1, not extremely obese around 20%) and whenever I go to the gym, I seem to get bigger easily. I'm muscular fat (think fat powerflifter) and someone came up to me and asked me if I ever did steroids. I didn't. This guy told me the side effects of steroids (gynosomethingmastia, stretch marks, big belly (big gut), mood swings etc.), did some research on my own and well, I seem to have ticked almost all of the boxes.
So:
- Is it possible that during my cancer treatment, along with chemo I got steroids too?
- Is it possible I have these "side effects" because of it?
- Can it be that I took other things and unknowingly caused these "side effects"?
I have taken fat burners (Ripped Freak, HyperShred), protein shakes and BCAA's. That's basically it on supplements. Can these be the guilty ones?
OR (and this would be the "better" option): I just have to f*cking work out because I'm fat?
Thanks guys, really appreciate it!
Chris
