trough on 2x weekly protocol t cyp IM , draw 4/13/2018. My endo: "Your Free T is way to high" He always says that. Too high for what? Hematocrit came down on its own from the month prior. No phlebotomy. IMO one can hit fairly close to where they need to be by feel alone. Granted, E2 is high but I have many underlying health issues. Obtaining these labs was a herculean effort.

Your numbers look good to me... the real question is how do you feel? There is room to increase your pregnalone but there is nothing wrong with your TT or Free T. You are a low SHBGer so it's possibe you'll benefit from more frequent injections. Also this would help decrease your E2. Search here for low SHBG to get a feel for what I'm suggesting.

Thanks ratbag. I offer this as proof that self treat by feel is possible. Can't wait for the "high free T" lecture from the endo. I should address the E2. I've done EOD. Injection fatigue. Attributing symptoms to any specific cause is difficult. Tick borne disease is suspect. Moldy place with leaky roof. Underlying chronic inflammation. Excess weight which is fairly recent and related to increasing physical limitations.

Just started Vascepa which is icosapent ethyl an Rx Omega EPA ester for trigs. Had been on Lovaza . Plateaued at 43 D,25-Hydroxy on 50k cholcalciferol/week. COQ10, r-a-lipoic, NAC,SAM-e, melotonin, milk thistle, sometimes NALT,ALCAR,Glutamine,Citrulline, glycine, whey isolate, L-theanine, leucine.
