hey all. i have been “off” for roughly 3 months, after tapering my tet injections from a peak of 750mg a week, to 500, then 250, then 125mg a week, and 0mg for the last 3 months.
i went to see a “quality of life medicine” doctor 3 weks ago and tests were done. here is what they showed:
liver and kiney funtions NORMAL. this is after being “on” for nearly 2 years straight. woo-hoo!
cholesterol-176
triglycerides-81
hdl-33
ldl-127
vldl-16
cholesterol/hdl ratio-5.3
tsh-2.40
total test-525
shbg-24.3
free test-126
%free test-2.4
bioavailable test-308
albumin-4.5
estradiol-36
psa-1.9
his recommendations:
though my t-levels are not bad, he would like to see them better. he does not think i need test injections or replacement at this time.
he wants to opimize my thyroid, get it alittle higher.
my hdl need to be raised.
he thinks increasing my aerobic conditioning and fiber and some other supplements and increase my exposure to sunlight(i am a night shift person) will
raise my hdl, help my thyroid and hdl levels.
the following suplementation program is what he recommends:
- pantothanine 900mg a day
- increase fiber to 250mg a day, or about 4 table spoons of milled flax a day
- chromium picohinate 200mg twice a day
- 5-star rated phamaceutical grade fish oil that is triglyceride based, i am not sure how the FLAME-OUT that i have just started rates, but he rcomended the stuff form ZONE-LABS and NORDIC NATURALS. if anyone (mods included) have anything to say about this i will listen.
ALSO, as far as pharmaceuticals go:
a program of HGH injections to optimze fat loss
HCG to increase natural testosterone
and thyroid supplementation.
any input/insite or opinions are welcome.
