    complete bw details needed

    Brothers,

    Could someone help me on a COMPLETE BW tests one should be tested for? Granted, my 1st doctor did not do all the TRT pre workup (E2, DHEA, etc) and he has the "shotgun" approach to blood work. Going to see new guy and would like (at least in theory) have a "do over" on lab tests. I know I will not get a "true" base line since I have been on TRT for about 3 months now. Heading to new dr and have Dr. Crisler test recommendations in hand, is there any more that someone would recommend? FYI, 1st dr said I was low due to my age and nothing medically wrong (but I have this low E2 thing going without AI or HCG ) Suggestions?

    Thanks
