    Why are you cruising at such a young age?(just curious)...

    The total test range is 256-857 ng/dl, if I remember correctly. You guys need to look at the whole picture and not just focus on this one number. Are you getting a complete HPTA workup? LH, FSH, Progesterone, Estradiol, SHBG?

    It's really impossible to equate a milligram to ng/dl blood level unless you have had the gear tested as well. While you may think you are shooting XXXmg/week, you have no idea what the actual number is. In any case, lowering SHBG with something like Proviron would be a good approach to making more of your testosterone bioavailable.
