glad you're doing better, and congratulations on your weight loss, i know what it takes to lose that much! as for the test, like GD noted your TT and FT are low for your age, and thats probably why you feel the way you do. if i were you I'd approach my doc to do the rest of the male hormone panel, see KelKel's sticky regarding Finding a Physician by Zip code, he listed the panel you need for a complete blood work. then post it here with ranges for everyone to analyze.

thanks for your time responding. the nurse drawing my blood named off several more test than the two results the Dr sent to me. i am calling them in the morning and seeing what's going on. if they didn't run the full panel like recommended i will be sure it gets done.

sorry for the copy and paste clustering the results together

Your TSH level is elevated...don't go by the reference range here. Anything 3 or higher needs further investigation and points to Hypothyroidism...which presents many of the same symptoms as Hypogonadism.

You need to see T4, T3 and RT3 as well.

10-4 thank you will try to get that ran next week.
