Doc, Do you think there is any correlation to Synthrol use and plaque in the arteries, seeing many younger BBers lately with bypass and CHD, I realize that 17AA use can and will cause a sudden drop in HDL levels, can your body deal with this much oil being injected IM on a daily basis sometimes as high as 6 cc per day...

Doc, Is it a normallity that when it comes to heavy lifters who have done this for quite a few years to have a enlarged Left Ventricle, would this cause a problem later on down the road even if one was to continually lift for years to come...

Although I am not too update with how low sythol use drops your HDL'S, I do know that anything dropping your HDL's below 35 automatically puts you at high risk for ischemic heart disease.

What you are referring to here is "ventricular hypertrophy," which is specifically termed concentric left ventricular hypertrophy in the way that you are using it. In answer to your question, it really depends on the severity, often times this can lead to left heart failuer due to the overstretching of the fibers beyond their limits. So yes, in severe cases down the road this can lead to some problems.
