Yep, thats what is facing the Rooster!! The tad bit of steroid usage i've done over the years, docs say it has cut the blood supply off to my hip. Plan is to drill 6 holes in my hip in a few months, then wait 6 months to see if it begins blood supply back to the hip, if not then take the pain as long as I can and have Total Hip Replacement.

But , i'd not change a thing, I enjoyed my years as a beast at 270, i'd do the roids all over again. I'd rather have been a shooting comet than a star that burned dimly for years and years. yep, i'd rather be that star that streaked across the sky burning in a blaze of glory. But gawd all mighty, my damn hip hurts!

Some of you will rejoice so lemme have it, Rooster is an old man, his hip is shot, time to become the Bionic man and get a new one! Open me up doc!

Thats brutal. I don't wish that on anyone but I highly doubt it had to do with steroid usage. Lots of people take way more than guys like us and they don't have any such problems. Steroids are not nearly as "bad" as people make them out to be but like any good thing they will cause you great harm if abused bigtime.

Actually Squadfella, i was 272 but you are fat, have always been fat and will be fat forever i'd imagine. You have no place on a bodybuilding website, your a chunky boy that lives vicariously through others. how sad fat boy.

Let me re-phrase.
A guy who takes 5000mg's per week is more likely to have problems down the road over a guy who only takes 500-1000mgs total. You drink 6 beers and your fine....you drink a whole 24 and your going to the hospital. Understand?

bo jackson had his hip done when he played football, he took a hit on his hip and the blood supply stopped to his hip nessestating a total hip replacement. i had my hip done make sure you get a top surgeon to do it. i had my right hip done 5 times due to infection etc. that's why i'm holding off doing my left for now. good luck.

Beats me but 3 doctors have confirmed the diagnosis.

They confirmed your condition, not what caused it.

Most doctors are as bad as soccer moms when it comes to understanding AAS.... all they know is they're "bad", and they're "killing our children".

So, when a patient presents with a condition they are not completely sure what caused, and the patient mentions he has a history of AAS use, the doc does the same thing the soccer-mom does... adds 2 and 2 and gets 5... "ah-HA! The steroids are the culprit!"

I'm just gonna assume doctors know a tad more than you. Really doesn't matter what caused it but all 3 have said there has been a link shown between steroids and blood supply to the hip but really doesn't matter what caused it.

also, i don't think Bo Jackson has ever had his hip replaced, he may have but from what i've read, he like me is putting it off.
