Need help, is testosterone?
Stats: 35, 250lb, 6ft, 30% + bf (gained over 3 stone since diagnosed with low test).
Symptoms: no libido, no drive, no erections, no morning wood or any other time. Tired and lethargic constantly, very moody, depressed, anxious, no get up and go. Weight gain, fat gain, just generally feel like crap.
History: I have been suffering with all the usual symptoms for nearly 2 years and have had four different endos:
1st gave me nebido after his under study thought this was the best treatment, I tried this and it gave me pain in my testicles (horrible), spots and no improvement at all, had two shots over 6 months.
2nd endo saw me and after I told him about my symptoms, he told me to stop (tbh I'm surprised I lasted that long with the pain) he then told me to leave it for 6 months which I found unacceptable.
3rd endo, was great spent all afternoon chatting to me and suggested I have a sleep study, see a dietitian and referred me to a so called specialist. He thought it was appalling I have had to live with these issues, but was retiring. So didn't want to start a new case, so to speak.
4th endo (so called specialist) wouldn't see me till I'd had a sleep study done, after I had that done it showed I had sleep apnea due to massive tonsils... Had them removed, got two hemoridges and a blood clot.. 3 operations later and a hell of a lot of pain. I took a 4 hour drive to have a blood test!!!
He then told my gp to start me on test enthate, the dose was 0.8ml every two weeks, after 4 days of first shot I felt worse than ever. Pain, shrinkage, spots, really wanted to commit suicide.. But I stuck it out for 2 months.. Was horrible.. He then told me to stop and have another blood test (4 hour drive). After that I was put on clomid, which after 10 days made my nipples feel like they had been through a cheese grater.. After another 4 hour drive the so called specialist told me he couldn't do anymore.
NONE OF THESE MADE ANY DIFFERENCE WHAT SO EVER
Blood results from 4 weeks ago:
Testosterone (Serum testosterone): 11.400nmol/L (7.6-31)
Oestradiol (Serum Oestradiol level): 44.000pmol/L (N/A)
Thyroid:
TSH: 1.280miu/L (0.35-5.00)
Free T4 18.100pmol/L (11.0 - 23.00)
Prolactin (Serum prolactin level): 205.000mU/L (<324)
PSA (Prostate specific antigen): 0.610ug/L (<3.0)
Ferritin (Serum ferritin): 133.000ug/L (20-500)
Vitamin D (Total 25-hydroxyvitamin D level): 129.600nmol/L (50-150)
Cortisol (Serum cortisol): 433.000nmol/L (170-540)
B12 (Serum vitamin B12): 610.000ng/L (200-900)
Had another blood test and a semen sample a week later.
Which was:
FSH 6.5 (1.3-19.3) iu/l
LH 2.2 (1.2-8.6) iu/l
Testosterone 6.9 (6.1-27.1) nmol/l
I have been to the fertility clinic today with the other half, and the guy we saw said my semen is perfect and I produce an abnormal amount. (More than the average guy and everything is perfect we're his words)
He also said if I am producing that much semen, then my testes are working fine. And he doesn't think it's a testosterone issue that is causing all my symptoms.
It is strange though how it can almost drop by half in a week, both done in the morning 9am a week later.
Any ideas? What should I do?

The semen thing and erection thing is silly I was perfect at 90 total test yet I felt like death. Senen doesn't control the quality of your life
