[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 15689, member: 3"] ChistmasElf Welcome to our team! Congrats on your recovery. Your lipids look good. Obviously, your total testosterone is low. Tell us what cardiac meds you are taking, please. I would talk to your doc about starting with a 2 percent compounded testosterone cream (empowerrxpharmacy.com has a good and cheap one, your doc needs to send fax). 1 ml per day dose then recheck at week 4 to see if you need to increase dose to bring you to the 600-900 ng/dL total T range. Your hematocrit should be kept under 52 with blood donations if needed. Check estradiol by ultrasensitive test at week 4 also to ensure it is in the 20-50 pg/mL range. Your blood pressure should also be closely monitored. Your PSA should never approach 4 or increase more than 50 percent during the first month. Also, watch for any urination issues.
