[QUOTE="ChristmasElf, post: 16014, member: 3407"] Saw my cardiologist yesterday. 11 months after my triple bypass open heart surgery he said I was doing so well he did not need to see me for a year. That progress pleases me. My primary care doc also wanted his input on me starting testosterone replacement therapy. I was pleasantly surprised that he had absolutely no problems with with my starting testosterone replacement therapy. He did not see an increased risk for someone with my cardiovascular history. During my physical next week my primary care doc and I will finalize the details of my therapy protocol. He has already told me that he believes I would benefit from the testosterone therapy. Looks like I will be starting with the generic version of the 2% FORTESTA gel as that is the covered Tricare starting gel. He does not use compounding pharmacies. I think he will be amenable to working as a team with me and I believe he will take my recommendations for follow-up blood tests which Nelson indicated above and in his book. I'll report how it goes. Reading Nelsons testosterone replacement therapy book cover to cover has been a real help for increasing my depth of knowledge and ability to converse with the doctor intelligently. Nelson thank you for writing it. [/QUOTE]
