    Update

    Well,
    I went to the endo yesterday and she is concerned that my bio available levels were well above the high range.
    She wants me to start dosing at 100/w for 6 weeks and then go back to see her. She also mentioned that my blood work before starting TRT showed that my LH was below normal which would indicate a pituitary issue, so she is sending me to get an MRI done. She also wants me to get checked for possible sleep apnea problem.
    Another thing she mentioned was changing to patches or gels, which I tried to shoot down. She feels the injections may not be effective but I mentioned that the T seems to be working, it's just that I don't feel well and I know there is some other underlying issue.
    Anyway, overall I'm pretty happy with the initial visit. She seems to know what she is talking about and has order me a number of blood tests which will be done 4 weeks from now when my levels stabilize. It was nice to finally have someone actually listen to what I was saying.
    Thanks to those who have provided input, it is always appreciated.
    Cheers and have a great weekend

    Did you bring up the E2 sensitive test? Like mentioned above your E2 is most likely high.
