    What are the best vitamin/supplements for Liver health?

    I use Milk Thistle: 250mg capsules twice a day. I did a liver panel beforehand, which was elevated, and after, where my numbers were back to normal. That was enough for me so I’ve stayed on it for the last 20 years. It continues to work well, keeping my liver #s in a good range.

    Should I start a low dose statin

    If you decide to go with a low dose statin, I personally would recommend Crestor over Lipitor. I find that both do a good job of lowering cholesterol but Lipitor lowered both my LDL and HDL. Crestor does a better job for me of not lowering my HDL while doing an even better job lowering my HDL...

    WTF HAPPENED... horrible coughing fit after injection, thought I was dying

    Unfortunately it’s a totally normal response when any testosterone is injected partially into a vein. It’s got nothing to do with alcohol on the top of bottles. I inject IM and this happens to me a few times each year. Sometimes it does feel like you’re going to die, sometimes it’s much shorter...

    Ended up in ER last month

    A second opinion with an ElectroCardiologist would probably be extremely helpful. Personally I ended up with an implanted defibrillator for different reasons. What you describe sounds like an electrical issue so I suggest you see an ElectroCardiologist. Testosterone doesn’t sound like it has...
