Help me choose blood work?
I'm trying to follow this as best as possible.

if you got the extra $ you can always add in hormone testing, thyroid , total and free test, e2 , just to see where your at with your TRT protocol
I would add in TUDCA for liver support, maybe some alpha lipoic acid as well
also being your running GH releasing peptides it would be good for you to monitor your blood sugar. glucose meter can be picked up at Walmart for 10 bucks
i think i'll fiddle with the selections to see what's most cost effective. right now this is the vanilla option that Discounted Labs provides. i think the only thing it's missing is creatine. anything on this list useless?
