Hi all,
Writing this post because I am desperate at this point. I have been feeling awful the past 3-4 months. Symptoms include: Brain fog, Extreme fatigue, Gastro problems ( I have IBS, but lately its unbearable), irritability, emotionless and minor depression.
I got blood work done by my GP. Everything came back normal except Testosterone which was listed at 354ng/dl (range 240 - 871). It says I have low T for my age (22) and that I should see an endo for further treatment options.
Blood was drawn at around 4PM. Now I have browsed a ton of threads on here and it seems I need more things tested such as LH/FSH/DHEA etc. Should I get these drawn first?
For my lifting background I started freshman year of college (5 years ago) and I was significantly bigger and stronger then. I was about 175lbs at 12%, 5’9’'. Today I am around 155lbs and roughly 13-14% bodyfat. I am still lifting hard and consistent but my gains seem to be non-existant. I have been on a lower calorie diet for quite sometime now mostly because my IBS has been painful and it is tough for me too eat a lot.
I am lost and don’t know what the next steps should be. I dont feel normal at all. Can anyone give me some guidance here?
