    Pre Cycle Blood Test Results.

    Below are the results from my pre-cycle blood test. I am currently on Androgel 1.6 two pumps daily. Apparently, this isn't enough. I am planning on post cycle TRT being Test C 50mg. 2 x week. I will get the sensitive assay on my mid cycle bloodwork. Any input from the HRT knowledgeable members regarding my test results would be appreciated. Note: Bloodwork says "low" Neutrophils, LH, FSH, as well as Test Serum? "High" Eos and Glucose Serum? I did down a few cookies the night before. But, I did still fast for 12 hours. Would the cookies effect my glucose levels even after fasting?

    Gels don't work for everyone. In fact they don't work for most people. Absorption is just weak.

    Were you recently sick or had some sort of infection? Bad allergies?

    Glucose is tricky. But 12 hours should have been more than plenty of time. I always avoid any sugar the entire afternoon before blood tests.

    Be sure to donate blood before your cycle, hematocrit is in range but getting up there.

    I haven't been sick. I have had some allergy symptoms recently as our weather is 100 degrees one day, 46 degrees two days later. That will wreak a little havoc with me. I can donate blood again on 9/23 and will do so. I was hoping my hematocrit level would be a little lower. I donated 7 weeks ago but did not know my level. I had finished a test only cycle about three weeks prior to that. My BP, normally around 120/70 was 150/90 according to a public machine at CVS. I've been told they are unreliable and have since bought a home monitoring device. It has me 115/65 currently. The high reading freaked me out a little and I went and donated right away. Is the Low Neutrophils reading anything to be alarmed about?
    The replies are much appreciated.

    no I wouldn't worry about as it is border line, but keep an eye on it and see if it gets worse. I agree with Austinite gels suck! also agree with donating especially if you are planning a cycle. I found it takes at least 16 hours for my glucose to go down, next time do what Austi said, don't eat any sugars passed afternoon.

    Will do. It crossed my mind when I was eating them. But, we're on vacation this week. It's hard to refuse when your wife sticks a plate of hot cookies in your face. :-)

    Donated blood yesterday. They gave me a voucher for a free flu shot, which I normally get every year anyway. Is there any reason to not get a flu shot while on cycle?
