Hello All,
Thanks in advance for your guidance.
I’m fairly new to TRT. I’ve had a 200mg shot every other week for the last eight weeks. I have been trying like crazy to get a prescription to self administer or at least get on a weekly shot cycle with my Urologist. No luck so far but It is looking promising for the prescription.
Been watching my diet under 60 carbs and 1,600 calories per day. Lots of protein and veggies. I’m also working out three times per week.
I really am feeling better but dealing with the very real sharks tooth schedule of high’s and low’s. Days 10-14 are crap. Though overall it is still a big improvement in my quality of life.
My energy level is up considerably, lost about 22 pounds and my entire body composition is changing rapidly. Sleep has been great and little to no body aches or pain. My mood has also improved except for an uncharacteristic occasional anger outburst, usually first thing in the morning.
Really, what I’m after is opinions from the experienced on my lab numbers. Hoping to head off any delays and hard lessons up front if possible.
My only current medications are 60mg of Armour every morning, pro-air inhaler and the Cyp.
I do have Hypothyroidism. They discovered it a year ago during a routine physical. My TSH was 6.55 (.45-4.5) but has come down some since.
At my last physical, last August I asked my Doctor to check Thyroid Antibodies and Test. Test came back low at 234 (348-1197)so he refereed me to my current Urologist. Sorry but it is a bit of a random assortment of tests and missing most. My primary doctor only uses tsh for thyroid and my Urologist has not done any free t. I just had more labs done and will get the results this Tuesday.
