Agree, currently we use steroids for patients with acute exacerbations of asthma, those same patients are also preferably in hospital on oxygen and using a nebulizer. We usually give intravenous Methylprednisolone. Steroids aren't indicated as prophylactic treatment as you seem to suggest...

Why Altitude Camps? Sorry if this has been posted before. The paper has been mentioned but I don't know if this was ever discussed: '' In the absence of mountains and in an attempt to limit blood doping, some countries have built nitrogen houses where it is possible to expose athletes to...

I don't get this at all. Possibly this is SKY's attempt to control the narrative in the the same way that the JTL case was leaked. Get ahead of the story. A way to seem like they have an excellent anti doping structure inside the team. It doesn't count if you bust your own riders...

Voted Froome because I never expected anyone to come back from the devastation that is Bilharzia..

This absolutely sucks. I think both him and Rogers are contamination cases. But we have a case were we can finally catch a huge POS doper like Rogers and remove another toxic element from the sport. Unfortunately, the UCI can't say, 'Ok Breyne, we believe you ate a contaminated food source...

Exactly this. Just because it isn't named doesn't mean it isn't banned. If you were to find a new blood boosting substance and call it something else, it's still banned, even if it isn't named. Usually a substance is added to the list when there is medical or other scientific evidence that...

Oh, ok. I know in the link the guy talks of CIR testing but I thought that he meant CIR would be used in the urine testing and the test I linked would be the confirmation, as you say. The urine test has been around for a long time, 2010 I think...

If I used AICAR, well I would be worried right about now.. If this is the test that got the go ahead than it could be detected for up to 120 days after use. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23828211

Well they found AICAR packaging at team ASTANA hotel room during the 2009 tour. I remember a certain former Tour winner bragging about how he was weighing less than in in his previous years. They should've started at the 2009 Tour just to shut him up...

USPS wages via @KeithJamesMc. http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2803akn&s=5#.Uq7mdvuKaoo Lance took more than the rest of his team combined in some years. Total ******, the guy who would make Hamilton pay out of his own pocket to 'finance' a bunch of Spanish dopers. The more I think about...

Keith Olberman on the Armstrong interview. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuLB5Xi2qFg&feature=youtu.be&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DKuLB5Xi2qFg%26feature%3Dyoutu.be&app=desktop

Pretty cool interview. Quite funny at times. I get the feeling that he expected USADA to come beg him before they acted. He should've known since the fed investigation, that had been running for a year, that if he wants to cut a deal he needs to come in, so I don't buy his whole 'treated...

Travis Tygart This is a great video of Travis Tygart speaking today. Talks about the current false narrative of how Armstrong was treated different. Also how POS d***heads like Sally Jenkins and Matthew McConaughey tried to use media influence to manipulate the public. Death threats he recieved...

So Froome had the same power numbers with more weight on another team that was dirty as f***. I swear this is an insult to cycling fans intelligence. Gawd Lance, you're bringing down the nutritional value at that table..
