But I will get it and post it. Thanks GD.
    Jack - Don't change anything that you are already doing right now...stay the course and get BW done.

    It would have been nice to see the follow-up labs listed in the sticky to see where you are at.

    Things like Thyroid panels, E2 and Cortisol are very important in making an assessment.

    Okay. I will continue on with the Testim-50 1/ED. I would have liked to see those labs as well. My doctor didn't order what he should have. He is my pcp, and the sign on his office says "Plattsburgh Internal Medicine". So I don't think that he is familiar with HRT... I think he just tested the testosterone levels, saw them low, and threw testosterone at it. I have only had blood work done EXACTLY ONCE... There was no Thyroid Panel, no E2, No Cortisol... The more I educate myself here, the crazier I see that it is that he prescribed me testim-50 already. It looks like most folks have 3-4 BW's done before they get any kind of testosterone. I am going to get the info for that one blood draw I had done, and I will post all the info that is on it for you guys to check out. I will continue on with my Testim-50 1/ED, and nothing else. Once I can get another BW done, I will add the Thyroid Panel, Cortisol E2, and anything else we need. I won't purchase any supplements until I have posted the prior BW & the upcoming one. Other than the two BW's, is there anything else I should obtain?
