    blood work info

    think ive asked b4, but now i know exactly how to word it...

    im going for blood work soon to establish baseline numbers on 150mg/wk,
    THEN im adding 350iu HCG on sat/sun, (test shots on mondays)

    SO, when should i get blood work done, TO BENEFIT ME THE MOST??

    A: if i get it drawn on monday, will either test or estradiol be high due to HCG on sunday? (if test is high and he lowers it=bad, high estrogen=arimidex =good)

    B: get it done on Thurs or friday so HCG is clear, but will test still be hi***sh from mondays shot??

    i dont want to show too high a level of test and get cut back....an increase would be preferred (feel good tho, so not likely)

    and if E2 is too high, i would hope for an arimidex script (if hes willing?)

    so, what would be best, hell i may go both monday and thurs (not too practical tho)

    thanks..

    your doctor has given you test 150mg a week and hcg ....did the two of you discuss what type of level you were looking for? you said you feel good on this dose but you mention wanting maybe an increase....remember, more isn't always better

    i think what u are saying is the hcg can give you a high test level....i wasn't lucky enough to get an hcg script from my doc so i can't advise there....good luck

    correct, and i guess too much HCG equals higher E2, which i want to avoid...

    You can get a quick blood test through Private MD. Contact and pay through the internet and they will send you a requisition form by email for a blood test through Labcorp. They will even fax the form if you have no printer. Then you go in, no appointment needed, they draw the blood and you will have your results emailed to within a couple days.

    Quick and easy. Cost me 48 bucks to get my serum total T tested (only). You can get anything tested but I just needed that to make sure my total levels were where I wanted them before I got my comprehensive blood test from the DR. I too was worried about a reduction. I also made sure I waited ten days after my last injection before getting a test from Private Md. Worked great for my purposes.

    you want a trough test.....which should be drawn on the day and time that you would have taken the next shot.....so if you are following your script...just don't fire until after blood is drawn...again day and time of scheduled shot....drawing blood instead of injecting script...and as soon as you get home from lab..fire away M8
