My trimix sucks, what strength should I have?
Madman, your post has been VERY informative, dare I say the most relevant post for me that I've ever read on the board here. My mistake in thinking of penis blood flow is that I was thinking in terms of absolutes - that you need high pressure to completely shut off blood flow exit to build the...- Melody68

My trimix sucks, what strength should I have?
Hey Madman, your memory that I got a penile ultrasound is impressive. That experience was a little disheartening. There was a significant fee payable for the test. The doctor came in, injected me, and said he'd be back in 10 minutes to do the scan. But, he was back in no more than one or two...- Melody68

My trimix sucks, what strength should I have?
Hey guys, I'm 69, take TRT, and have been using the Trimix prescribed by a urologist, with a formula of 20mg/1mg/25mcg, for a few months now. It works, but not that well. After injection, I'll kinda sorta get a 6/10 erection which can then be manipulated by me to an 8/10, which isn't bad, but...- Melody68

Advice and next steps. 38 years old with 305 total t
You can consider yourself fortunate to have the excellent commentary from the experienced members above, who are all, in my opinion, bang on the money with their advice. You don't talk much about your symptoms, other than to call them "the usual symptoms". You need to go back and question...- Melody68

Help identifying this arm injury??
Wow, terrific help from a terrific bunch, thanks all very much. I've just read the entries and will reread everything to make sure that I'm not missing anything. Truthfully, you couldn't buy this caliber of help . . . Something also that's extraordinarily helpful, is to have confirmation that...- Melody68

Did I hit a nerve?
I've never tried the shoulder, but I hear it works OK. Really the thigh for me is pretty good; I might hit a nerve once every few months or so. Feels a little like an electric current, but not super bad. Yes, you do get a bit gun shy after it, just get back on the horse. Make sure you're...- Melody68

Did I hit a nerve?
What size needle are you using? I use a fixed insulin 1/2" 27g which works quite well for IM. I'm not super experienced, but I suspect that if you hit a nerve you would feel it right away. I've been injecting IM into the thigh for over a year now and once in a blue moon I will hit a nerve...- Melody68

Help identifying this arm injury??
I'm 69 and have been taking T for a year and lifting weights for 8 months now. I like the board members here and hope they can help me with yet another problem. My left arm is my non-dominant arm and if I'm looking at it with a straight arm, palms up, the pain is at the inside crease, but near...- Melody68

American men are hungry for injectable T: A legion of new health clinics are serving it up
I'm 69 and started TRT just last year, largely because I would fatigue easily when exercising or doing physical work; it has helped me that way. As a younger person I would have my T tested occasionally, and it was on the lower side if not actually considered low. I prefer to be humble, but...- Melody68

Severe Muscle Pain from Crestor?
Agree. Smaller doses of statins maintain close to the effectiveness of the larger dose while often reducing the exposure to negative side effects dramatically. I always made it a point to try 1/2 of the prescribed statin dose before going to the full dose, with excellent results. When it...- Melody68

Does arthritic elbow mean I can't lift weights?
I'll stay away from the ice. For so many years I inhaled on the quick negative movement, and inhaled with exertion. Now if I lower the weight to a count of 4, I discovered my breathing got all screwed up, ha! I'm still deciding whether I go one long exhale, or fit an inhale breath in there...- Melody68

Got Test results after 3 months 1% T-Gel . . . very rattled!
This is old thread . . . I did go on T enanthate (TE) at that time and it was/is much, much better than the gel. Basically it works, where the gel didn't. I inject once every four days (easy to do, just have a calendar handy); I used a 5/8" 27G needle from Sol M for the longest time, injected...- Melody68

Does arthritic elbow mean I can't lift weights?
Hey Guided, this is fantastic information, more than I could have hoped for. I'll start with the non-invasive suggestions and then work my way up from there. I lifted weights at various times in my life, never seriously, just Joe Weider garage stuff. But one thing I always seemed to believe is...- Melody68

Anyone Used Hikma Testosterone Enanthate?
I use the Hikma brand. I started about a year ago on the Delatestryl and liked it a lot, no side effects. Then a few months after I started they discontinued Delatestryl, which was disappointing to me. But I replaced with the Hikma brand and I don't notice any difference, seems to be pretty...- Melody68

Does arthritic elbow mean I can't lift weights?
Hi, I'm 69 and started lifting some weights when I started T a year ago, but stopped soon after. I thought I had started too fast and given myself a case of tennis elbow. I gave it 7 months of rest; it got a bit better so I started lifting again. I've been lifting about 5 months and have made...- Melody68
