Truth about steroids and brain cancer

Norm Fost, the professor of Wisconsin’s University, destroys several common misconceptions linked with anabolic steroids. However several experts note about severe and even fatal side effects of anabolic steroids, Dr. Fost denies these statements, confirming that they don’t have any scientific basis.
But affirmations of Norm Fost are not so often quoted by media as affirmations about severe adverse effects of steroids.  So, the message of Norm Fost that steroids are not so harmful, as it is believed, is written once for every 500-time conclusion that steroids represent a real evil.
 Furthermore, editors usually mislead readers, writing the quotes of Norm Fost incorrectly. For example, a headline of a radio talk sounds following: “UW-Madison doctor: steroids aren’t harmful at all”. The headline is not correct. It is misleading. Norm Fost has never stated that steroids were not harmful at all. It is well-known that these drugs can cause various unwanted symptoms. Norm doesn’t deny probability of occurring  adverse results. Actually, this physician says some other things. This specialist notices that probable risks of steroids are significantly exaggerated. This expert denies the statement that steroids lead to the rare form of brain cancer. According to some sources, this led to the death of Lyle Alzado, a player of the NFL. Norm Fost confirms that there is no any link between the death of this player and steroids.
Alzado blamed his prolonged steroid abuse for the primary brain lymphoma that finally led to his death. Assertion of this player was the only evidence that supported the link between his usage of steroids and the brain cancer.
But a question appears here. Why did Alzado make public his steroid use, demonizing anabolic steroids for his diseases? Couldn’t you find this fact strange?
Actually, it was said that AIDS had affected his immune system and promoted destructing his body by the primary brain lymphoma.
A pathologist noticed that Lyle Alzado had had T-cell lymphoma that was linked with AIDS. According to Dr. Thomas DeLoughery, Alzado feared that the public would know that he died from AIDS because of the cancer.
Pathologists at OHSU reported that this football player had had B-cell lymphoma which was not connected with HIV or AIDS.
The physician DeLoughery explained the situation. He noticed that T-cells of this person were inflamed but the malignant cells were B-cells.
While specialists disputed about AIDS and the type of cancer which Lyle Alzado had, nobody of them noted about connection between his brain lymphoma and intake of steroids.
