    Yea I know, nothing is in stone until bloods are done, I'm just trying to build up some info to talk with the docs about at least, know my symptoms and possible reasons for them better.

    No, everything until blood work is done is just speculation. By the way, you need an endocrinologist. This doctor needs to check your prolactin and estradiol levels. If the prolactin comes up high, he needs to order an MRI of your pituitary. And believe me that shit isn't cheap. Just the bloodwork alone can cost you over a grand (depending on if you go to Quest Diagnostics). You also need to be honest and accurate with the doctor about your prohormone usage, because that will help him eliminate some possible causes. Also depending on the place you go, MRIs can also be very expensive. But I urge you to make an appointment ASAP (it'll probably be a while before you can get an appointment).

    I know there are ways to get cheap bloodwork done, could I have that done and then take the results to a doc?? Or should I just go to a doc and let him call the shots. Jeez...a grand just for some blood to be tested...
