Oh no, now where do I turn???
This is the craziest...
Went to an endo yesterday....first mistake...doctor was female....second mistake....(no racism intended) she was Asian. It appeared western medicine was not her forte.
My blood testosterone levels of "85" (+/- a few points over 3 consecutive months & tested first thing in the morning. My levels have steadily declined over the past few years. Only 3 years ago it was at 145. My family doctor (a very conservative, but understanding man) initially had me try intramuscular injections scripted at 200mg every month. After a couple of months of more frustration he upped it to 200mg every 2 weeks. By that time however I had already been injecting myself with 200mg per week and it was just beginning to show promise of reversing my problems. I told my doctor and he referred me to the endo doctor.
This is where it goes south for me...I brought with me all my copies of my blood draw readings from the past 2 years. One other BIG mistake I made is showing her my 2nd to last testosterone blood level test, which was taken 3 days after my last injection. That reading was 845, which truly was good for the 51 year old that I am. Then my very last blood test had showed my level dropped to 415. That last test was taken 1 month after the 845 reading. The drop off was clearly evident I had problems.
This female Asian doctor after examining me said “there was no need for me to continue with HRT because my current level is where someone my age (51) should be. I should not be having sex because since I already had 3 children my service (to God??) was complete. I should now slow down and focus on the second half of my life”. After I restrained myself from striking this woman, she continued on saying “the only reason I want the testosterone is to keep acting like an 18 year old instead of accepting my lot” She then added she was going to note this in my file and talk further with my PTP. Now I understand why there’s a cooling down period before one can buy a handgun.
She asked me to remove my pants so she could examine my balls to see if I did any damage to my boys during the past few months of my “self-medicating” (her words)
As I got up, grabbed my clothes, restraining myself again from striking her I told her “I wouldn’t give you a cheap thrill, even if it’s your only chance at seeing such magnificent work. I also added that nowadays people don’t need doctors to get what they want, the internet is filled with offers.” My problem now is to try and find the right one without getting scammed, because I know my PTP, being a bit timid, won’t feel comfortable scripting me, now that an endo has spoken. I don’t know what to do next, other than reporting this witch to medical board.
I know those who read these posts care. But to fully understand my situation please read my previous post back in May.
P.s. My pain pump has been implanted permanently, I'm totally off all oral pain meds, including that bad, bad methadone. Thanks again for your concerns and replies back then & in the future posts.
