[QUOTE="SoCalSurfer, post: 1852, member: 268"] Hi Guys, Sometimes the doctor needs to do due diligence and stay up to speed rather than staying with status quo and do what he always as done. I had a doc try to put me on adult ADD medication and come to find out after doing my own research and pushing for getting tested for Low T that I was under between 150 and 200 with T levels. Sorry but Doctors do not know it all and it scares me when they think they do. My current Endo. doc will not even test for Estrogen levels until I start to develop breast tissue. Sorry to me that's a bit late, I like to be proactive not reactive. As a patient I have found I have to be informed and try to read through all of the information on the internet, some good some not. Dont get me wrong I like my Endo doc and we have a good relationship so we are going to talk about Estrogen during my next appointment. I just dont say ok Doc whatever you say anymore. :-) I also suffer from gout which has really pushed me to do my own research on everything I consume. I recently tired a hydration supplement called HEED; it works along the same lines of Gatorade. Come to find out one of the ingredients messes with Uric Acid levels very rapidly, so it triggered a gout attack. Now I check everything, supplements, prescriptions and food. I look up all the ingredients and confirm no interaction and what each one does. When my past doc put me on Uloric for gout he didnt do it correctly and I was bed ridden in extreme pain for 4 weeks. He just prescribe the new drug cause the one I was taking was to harsh on the system. "[B]nosce te ipsum[/B]" [/QUOTE]
