I am not KelKel but....
If you are on TRT for health reasons then you should lower your dose. Your lipids are bad and your RBC is high.
If you are on TRT solely to build muscle then proceed with caution.Last edited by The Deadlifting Dog; 11-05-2015 at 05:55 PM.

I would also suggest editing your BW so you personal details are not shown.
But 200 a week is huge.

Hi Whynot,
I would concur with both guys above. Look at it this way, your BW was pulled a week after injection and your numbers are still that high. It's entirely possible they're twice that high the day after injection. You need to keep an eye on your H & H as DD noted as well. Probably be wise to donate some blood.
You're taking .5 adex eod for TRT. That's a lot. I'll put it in perspective a little. If I run a cycle of 750 mgs test per week that's the dose of adex I use to keep me in a normal range. You should consider lowering your dose as stated above. Even if you went down to maybe 75 mgs x 2 per week it would be a plus and help with both E2 and H & H. Also remember standard estradiol normally reads higher than a sensitive assay.
You mentioned 10 on an insulin needle daily for your HCG . We need to know how many IU's daily as without knowing how you mixed it, it tells us nothing.
When it comes to your lipids, yes, they need help. Total chol doesn't really matter that much quite honestly. Couple things to really look at, imho. One is your triglycerides to HDL value. Basically divide your HDL into your triglycerides and you want the number to be less than two. Second is your LDL particle size. Basic chol panels don't give this so it would be prudent to get either a VAP or NMR Lipo Profile for your next BW. This breaks down your LDL particles and gives you a much better picture / risk assessment.

How much bac water did you mix with the HCG ? When it comes to HCG daily low dose injections (100 iu's) is a great protocol, if that is the amount you're doing.
Only repeat BW will help you dial in how much adex to use and / or how much to titrate down your testosterone amount. I'd suggest dropping your test dose as well as your adex dose and maintain it for at least 4 to 6 weeks, then pull BW for those specific items. Adjust from there. It's doubtful you'll notice a difference with that drop although some people who are having trouble dialing in at higher doses will report feeling better at a lower dose.
Remember, TRT is for the long term. Less is more which means the less you can use (test, AI's, etc) and feel good the better. Numbers are definitely a guide but it's really about how you feel.
Regarding your losing weight comment, test can help as it's can be thermogenic but the bottom line is still diet and exercise. The less fat you carry the less turnover from T to E will occur.

I agree with what Kel and others have pointed out. Your dose of testosterone is way too high if these labs were taken at your trough. As a result of your high dose, your RBC production has increased quite a bit. That's a problem that should be addressed through blood donations.
Your estradiol is also very low. You're in range, but that method of testing is not accurate at levels that low. The solution is to lower your dose of Arimidex .

Suppose you first shot is Monday am do your second shot Thursday pm. When you pull BW do it on a Monday morning before your injection.
When it comes to your adex all I can offer is an educated opinion as we don't know how you'll respond to the lower dose. That said, I'd probably just take .5 adex on the day of each injection. Remember your E2 is probably low based on your Estradiol level. Retest after 4-6 weeks and adjust if necessary.
