Asking ?s for docs

**r1sk** · 03-12-2009, 12:26 AM

I know doctors freakn hate when we "prescribe" ourselfs with steroids or what not but how do you guys approach them? I really want to test for those things from what stocky posted...

BLOOD WORK

what to get checked out when you do get checked

> testosterone , total, free and weekly bound
> TSH
> cortisol, total
> t3, free
> t4, free
> igf1
> igfbp-3
> dhea sulphate
> hemoglobin A1C
> fasting insulin
> cbc
> comprehensive metabolic panel
> lipid panal
> GGT (important liver value)
> PSA

... but how do you ask these questions? What type of doctor should I be looking for because I now everything is based on experience and of course not all docs have been to this forum and researched these types of chemicals besides looking it up in a book or something...and for whatever reasons once these results are given and are abnormal, should I take his advice in what he prescribes over the veterans here on this thread? believe me fellas if I could take it back I would have never have injected

Yea they will start testing for low testosterone if you go there complaining of erectile dysfunction and tired all the time, cant concentrate at school...stuff like that.

Google "symptoms of low testosterone "

Oh and fo doctors I would stay away from urologists and endos. I would see a doctor that deals with anti-aging and holistic doctors.
