Any thoughts on adding berberine?

I’m tracking calories as well using the fat secret app. Do you ever incorporate cheat meals or just a maintenance calorie day, etc?

Thanks for the quick reply. I had a few questions. is there an issue with red rice yeast? Everyone and their mom says with TRT, high water consumptions is needed for hematocrit and RBC numbers. Gallon Of water a day Is the mantra I hear. I hate drinking that much water as I’m up 3-4 times...

Hello everyone I’d like to get some feedback on the supplements that I’m currently taking. Here they are broken down by morning and evening. morning supps: 50 mg DHEA, my doctor wants to up that to 75 based on my latest lab results. Cortisol supplement called Adren-all. It was two pills a day...

I just read your thread and you’re right, there are a lot of similarities. How are your palpitations As of today?

I’m currently on a lowered dose of .20 of 200 mg/ml test Cyp twice each week, sub q. if I’m aiming for the middle of the range, is .15 too low? .18? I’m absolutely aiming for a therapeutic dose, nothing more. How long does it typically take for the AI to wear off and let the E rise? Are my...

Sounds good. Another tidbit of info. My BP is only high NOW in the Diastolic (lower number) and the systolic is around 120. Last week it was both. Until a few weeks back, my diastolic was always. 66-72 or so.

Is there a specific type/dose of iron I should consider? Will that supplementation have a downstream effect on RBC, hematocrit, etc? I don’t quite know what to expect with the stress test. I loathe running and never do but I can walk all day long.

Well, it's been an interesting few days and this post will be long as I want to provide as much info as possible. My TRT Dr ordered a set of labs. The key numbers were; RBC - 6.03 - Range of 4.14-5.80 Hemo - 17 - Range of 13-17.7 HemoCrit - 49.8 - Range of 37.5-51 Total T - 945 - This is down...

Took my BP again this morning and it was 143/91. VERY high for me. I have a Dr appt in an hour and don’t have a clue what to do To resolve the issue. The pressure behind my eyes is very concerning.

Do you have a history of iron deficiency?

Geez, this is a shitty situation I find myself in. I can’t donate and can’t continue. So now what?

This spring has been all my allergy symptoms elevated. Itchy throat, ears, eyes, sinus pressure, some sneezing, etc. the nausea showed up two nights ago and I’ve not had that. I eat pretty plain and have so for the past few weeks so nothing odd in my diet that could cause issues.

I will ask him tomorrow if he can check that and see if I meet resistance. He seems like the type that will Check whatever I ask him too. The issue I then have is it’s 8-10 days before my lab work is back and I’m not inclined to deal with these palpitations and headaches for another couple...

Thank you for your reply. Yes, labcorp was who ran my blood work and yes it was high. I am currently on a lowered dose of .2ml of 200 mg twice a week for a total of 80mg/week. That’s been my new dose for almost 3 weeks. I don’t know if that dose is getting to the point where I don’t have a...

Nothing was done without labs. I had labs a month ago and the total and free numbers were very high so my Dr and I reduced the amount. Total was over 1500 and free was 38. My med is Test cyp, 200 mgs p ml. Repeat labs are scheduled for 3 weeks out to see how my adjusted dose affects numbers As...
