Hey Gents,
The title should have been "looking for Possible answers"
Recent blod work in pre for my endo appt in july are:
Test Bio Aval: 13.8 H Range 2.1-8.5 nmol/L
Test : 27.6 Range 8.4-28.7 nmol/L
Ferritin: 41 Range 22-322 ug/L
Throxine Free 10.1 Range 9.7-19.9 pmol/L
TSH 1.44 Range 0.50-6.00 mU/L
BUN 6.5 Range 2.5-7.1 mmol/L
Creatinine 90 Range 58-110 umol/l
Prolactin 14.8 Range male: 2.1-17.7 ug/L
Iron: 21.40 range 8.10-32.60 umol/L
% saturation 36 range 20-55
Fe binding Cap: 59.39 range 44.80.55 umol/L
No test was done for E2 and the requisition didn't seem overly comprehensive. I had to actually check off the T3 and T4 boxes as the endo didn't request them which I found odd. My hope is that after the initial consult she will request further testing.
My stats: 48yr, 5' 8" 160lbs est 12-15%bf
75mg test cyp e3.5d
Looking at my test levels I think I will drop back to 60mg e3.5d and see how I feel.
Been on TRT for 2 years now and have been dealing with the military doctors and a urologist who started me on my initial protocol 100ew.
About 5 months in I went to injections every 3.5 which really illimnated my ups and downs. All was good until 10 months ago when I started feeling off and thought it could be an adrenal or thyroid issue. In a normal week I would feel very good for 2 days, 3 days alright and 2 days of feeling like shiat. Went in to see my doc and mentioned that I wasn't doing great even though my test levels were high normal. She sent me back to the urologist again and when I mentioned to him my symptoms he said it was beyond his scope of expertise and refered me to the endo which I will see in July.
Being in the military makes it very difficult to reason with the medical officers and they only see that my t levels are good and I should be fine which has frustrated me to no end.
Any comments/thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
