Greetings bredren. Hello from New York. I am 55, about 225 lbs, mostly fat, and recently got put on testosterone Cypionate due to low numbers resulting from long term, about 7 years, opioid treatment for pain management. Symptoms were always Dragging ass, gained 25 pounds in last two years, tired all the time, low sex drive, lack of hard dick except maybe twice a week, etc...
Got bloodwork done, test number was 241 ng/DL and free T was 3.0.
My doc put me on 200mg test cyp 1x week along with 1mg Anastrozole three days after my injection.
I felt too much peaks and valleys effect, so I split it up to 0.5 ml test every three or four days. Doc says it’s ok. I am almost done with my second month. It seems like it had more beneficial effects the first few weeks. Maybe it’s in my head.
Anyway, I haven’t worked out in over 25 years, but the place told me I should start. I tried two weeks back with my friend at planet fitness. It was good under his guidance. But Monday I tried working out myself in the basement with my old weight bench. I just injured my upper arms and chest muscles. I didn’t stretch right I guess, and I feel like I got hit by a train in the upper body. I’m finally recovered a bit by thurs night.
This was just a short intro. about me. Just one question. Would it be reasonable to bump up the dose to .75ml 2x week, totaling about 300mg per week? I told My doc that I feel like a bit dragging again, so he says “yeah, just bump it up a bit” but he wasn’t too specific. What’s the consensus ?
Also, I gave the anastrozole a break for a week. I think it drags my energy down. Can I safely do that for awhile?
