I am on 20 mg of crestor. Had an MI 4 years ago that was close to killing me. 100% occulsion Chol was not high before, but not low. BP was normal before. Been on statins since. Numbers are good. No side effects for me. I know others do

Dr Caulkins has been nothing but helpful and cooperative to work with. It id great to hav.e a doc that treats you and not the lab values

I have been at it for 91/2 years. Was a positive game changer for me, though mot with out it’s own problems. I was 50, total was 200-250 ish. Dr did not know what he was doing. Never checked if it was primary or secondary. Was on androgel It worked great but No insurance coverage for it...

Yes your levels will be elevated and your dr will not have a real clear picture. So at least let him know what your dose has been. How much and of what type and what frequency are you dosing? i buy mine for about $40/ month

I have been on TRT for nine years. Never had BP issues before and not first few year. Has a heart attack almost 4 years ago. My BP will be high now if no meds. I take low dose losartan and cardiverol. Today at dr office i was high at 136/73. Typically low 120 over 70. So I don’t...

No problems here. If we are gonna have sex in the morning I do not apply until after. if it is later during the day, I shower anyway prior, south TX heat, pretty much shower first anyway

For me it was 12mg per day

Been on losartan for 3 years, 25 mg per day. No change in HCT

I have been ow dose crestor for 3 years now. Never had any muscle problems or other sides. I had an acute MI on April 15 2019. It was a close call. Never had high cholesterol or BP prior to. Genetics are what they are. The beta blocker for BP i take now is also low dose. I had slight...

I drop 2-3 hct points after donation. It depends on how high it is. When it is 58 or so i drop about 2.8-3 points. When I am 55 I drop 2 points. If I do not donate every 3 months I will slowly get behind the curve and be at 58. I do better if I donate every 10 weeks. This has been on...

I travel quite a bit internationally and domestically. Put in my carry on and never had an issue

I had a MI two years ago, 100% occluded LAD. Put a stint in and saved me on the table. No prior history, great shape was training for “the murph” when it happened. Total cholesterol was running 150-180, LDL in the 90 range, HDL 45. Dr put me on 20 mg crestor daily. Total now is under 100...

Low back pain, tight glutes are all common sides. Mine lasted about 2 weeks. Headaches went away after awhile as sam time frame. It continued to tear up my stomach though. I was eating tums like m&ms!

Will Brink wrote a great little book on tons of supplements regarding what worked and what doesn’t . Inexpensive and a quick read, I recommend it

I use 1/2” there all the time, works great for me

Yes. every morning

I am currently doing 8mg/ day, down from 12/ day. I can say libido has dropped off a tiny bit. Energy is the fine, cognitive fine as well. I run at 53-56 hct at 12 mg/ day. Trying to drop that back some.

I travel with mine all the time. In my carry one as well. I carry syringes and testosterone in a quart plastic bag in an outside pocket. I carry the testosterone in a labeled box with the prescription on it. Dozens of flights domestic snd overseas, never been a question

I am with Vince on this. WAY too much. I do 12mg daily and that will keep my Free T around 20 and total 700ish. Back it down to 12-16. What was teh driving force to switch? Were you doing fine on the previous dosage?

I went off for a few months once due to high HCT. Nothing drastic as far as sudden shock. But in about 3 weeks I was back to no energy, anxiety and all the crap that started me on TRT in the first place

so this happened to me as well. I never volunteered info about TRT, but my Hgb was high on their little BS machine. They said I must have polycemia vera and would not let me donate. I got tested for that and a bunch of other myopia stuff and took it back. Still a no go so had to do the...

yes I started about 5 months ago. I dropped about 10# over the course or a month or two. That plateaued. My a1c was creeping up slowly, just before I started it was 5.9. After 3 months of fasting it was 5.4. I go 8 pm til noon. and I work out at 5am, cardio and heavy weights. At first I...

Viagra for me. 50 mg

I am not sure which one would be more accurat. That is a big difference. What I can comment on is a drop from 60 to 47 after 2 blood donations. I donate 500 cc and if i drop 3 points that is alot. I use labcorp. So a 13 point drop pver 2 donations seems peculiar to me. Not doubting...

Exactly. BMI is a made up science by somebody trying to seek diets

I have messed with HCG and may go back on it as my nuts are disappearing and flaccid penis is shrinking. HCG did raise my E2. I think saying on low dose test cyp has been what has contributed to my lower E2, but when free T geo sup Estrogen will follow. So it has been a 7 year journey thus...

wish they would have used something other than BMI. What a total crock of crap that measurement is I am 5' 10.5" and weigh 198#. Can not pinch enough fat on back of are or inner thighs to do an injection. Can get a bout an 1' around belly and my BMI says 29%, almost at obese. Poppycock...

We do it at home. My wife is trained though. We can buy 16 ga kits online. Big bore needle does not feel good poking around in there if the person doing the poking is unskilled. So if you have large veins that stick out you can probably be ok. Pay attention next time you go to red cross or...

In my situation, TRT for 7 years, it never affected my BP at all. I have been up and down on dosages sorting through. Like you I am low dosing, down to 70mg/ week daily injections. I feel fine and HCT is a bit less of an issue. I did have a heart attack spring of 2018 and they put me on BP...

My guess would be high E2.. Based upon your description, that is what happens to me with high E2
