my bloodwork and a question
I've been seeing a A3M doctor in Beverly Hills for a couple months and he has put me on a very low dose of Test cyp inj. (1cc every 2 weeks). From what I've read on here that is about 1/4 of what a 'beginner' cycle often is. He is going to test my blood work again in a couple weeks. To see how it has changed since I started with the injections. My question is, should I skip my next injection so that my levels look lower so he is more likely to up my dosage?
The following are my stats and my bloodwork (I've posted all of it for the nerds):
