Thanks, Nelson, I will read through these.

Like you all said, I'm not attached to having really high testosterone. I just want to have some strength and energy. Donating blood probably will happen soon but I thought I would see where my hematocrit is first. I'm still in the early stages of TRT and it likely will take some time to get...

I'm going for blood work on Friday. I will post that if anything looks questionable. Probably the first thing I'm going to try is going to 3 shots a week instead of 2 unless my testosterone comes back high but I don't think that's the case. I definitely noticed increased heart rate on the day of...

I had anxiety that lasted about 6 years. I took medications then tapered off and the anxiety went away. I felt "worked up" for sure but no heart rate issues or pounding heart at night.

Yes, heart rate is ranging from 75-85 bpm. Blood pressure has been up and down. Today it was 143/75 then later 124/77.

I think the heart rate issue comes and goes. It's hard to say that it's only after injecting but it definitely started after getting on testosterone.

I have not had SHBG taken but plan to at my next labs. My last labs were at the beginning of June. Total 736 range 348-1197 Free 15.7 range 6.8-21.5 E2 22.5 range 8-35 I was wondering whether to take the issue to my family doctor or if it was testosterone related then I would check with Defy...

I would greatly appreciate some help with the following two questions. I have been on testosterone injections now for 3 months. I am doing 0.5 mL twice a week of 200 mg/mL. Is that considered a high dose? The reason I ask is that my heart rate is up and at times feels like it's pounding pretty...

Thanks for the info, guys! My test does contain grapeseed oil and I have thought about that. I may try to switch but right now I have a lot of it that would go to waste if I didn't use it. My DHEA was fine before starting TRT but I haven't checked since then. I have 3 more weeks before next...

I am in my third week of injections and have been extremely stopped up in my sinuses. I know tree pollen is bad right now but I have never had this much trouble and I am on allergy meds. A few days ago one of my ears got totally stopped up and now is making noises with very little hearing out of...

Thanks, John, I will look at other oil options if this continues. I hadn't thought of trying an allergy medication. I'm not sure about the mg/mL. It is 0.6 mL once per week and then check labs after 6 wks. I will have to check and see if I can split that into two doses. This is my first...

Thanks, guys! I'm wondering if it might be the sesame oil I'm possibly having an allergic reaction to. I have had shortness of breath this morning also along with really clogged sinuses. There has also been some tightness in my chest. I looked up the sesame oil and allergic reactions and...

I just had my first testosterone cypionate injection of 0.6 mL yesterday morning. About 30 minutes later I had a short episode of shortness of breath and feeling like I was really keyed up. I did have 1 cup of coffee also which is my usual. Then about 3 AM this morning I woke up with...
