Low T update

Well folks its been 3 weeks since I stopped taking clomid and I feel like shit. Anxiety, moodiness, big time insomnia, and absolutely no sex drive since about a week after stopping the clomid.

This past monday I had the blood drawn per my endo. She had the following checked off on the quest paperwork:

FSH, LH, free testosterone , Total Testosterone, IGF-1, Prolactin, Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies, TSH, T-4(Free). The lab tech took three vials of blood

Also, on Wednesday I had the blood drawn per the HRT clinic. The doctor there checked off on the quest paperwork:

Cardio CRP, CBC with differential, Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, DHEA-S, Dihydrotestosterone (red top tube), Hemaglobin A1c, Insulin , LH, Lipid Panel, Prolactin, PSA total, Testosterone, Free, Bioavailable and Total (red top tube), T3 free, T4 free, Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Vitamin D (25-Hydroxy) LC/MS/MS, IGF-I, LC/MS, IGFBP-3 (IGF Binding Protein 3) plus I have to mail off the saliva samples today. The lab tech took eleven vials of blood

Why is it that the HRT clinic is sooo much more thorough than the endo!?!?!

I am now anxiously waiting for one of the doctors to call me! Also my wife is wanting sex tonight. Im really not in the mood!

Im actually thinking of driving over the mexican border (its fairly close to me) to get myself some test-C as I am not looking forward to the weekend!

The really good news is with all those tests you are well on your way to a solution.

Now, if you posted that you just went to an endo and he ordered a total T and a PSA... then I would be singing a sadder tune.

They might actually let you bring it back into the US without a script...they get alot of people getting cheap meds and bringing them back across.

Whats your history?

Why were you on clomid? Why did you stop?

Do you have a different thread you would like help with? (Or you can just continue here... I'm not familiar with your case though)

I originally posted a thread that "Clomid raised my testosterone levels 450 points!" and it did however my total test fell back to 345. I was referred to and endo who said she wanted me to stop taking the clomid and Armour thyroid (both prescribed). So I did as she said and now I wait.
