[QUOTE="SOCAL2018, post: 114632, member: 18752"] Many thanks to those of you that have replied to my post as it is greatly appreciated. Quick recap - As I stated in last post my doctor at 10 weeks had me do 2nd labs - (due to symptoms I believed were due to high estradiol (non-sensitive) 95.3 pg/mL on second labs. Doctor lowered dose to .75 @200 MG 1x a week. He also prescribed .5 Anastrozole M,W,F and CIPRO due to PSA jump from 3.6 to 6.620 in 10 weeks. Doctor diagnosed via digital exam prostatitis. So I went had blood done again one week after last draw on my own through labcorp. Just to check blood work on test not requested by my doctor on last two labs that many believe should have been. Had my CMP, Estradiol, Sensitive (LS/MS/MS), DHT, PSA (3[SUP]rd[/SUP] time to see if any change one week after taking CIPRO). Labs were taken on Saturday morning before my Sunday injection this time. Last time doctor sent me out day after injection my Test levels were 1500. [B]*Info/ This week I split my injection2x a week every 3.5 days to see if that would help with outcomes. Looking at the new results – I think I need to reduce from .75 (150 MG split every 3.5) to .5 (100/120 MG split every 3.5) as a few of you mentioned.[/B] New labs below after new protocol: Testosterone,Free and Total Testosterone, Serum 1460 [B]High[/B] ng/dL 264 - 916 [B][I](still way to high for end of cycle pre-injection) [/I][/B] Free Testosterone(Direct) 25.0 [B]High[/B] pg/mL 7.2 - 24.0 [B][I](I am o.k. with this for now) [/I][/B] Dihydrotestosterone 96 [B]High[/B] ng/dL [B][I](DHT high but my knowledge is lacking and is this level helping to increase my PSA) [/I][/B] Estradiol, Sensitive 10.0 pg/mL 8.0 - 35.0 [B][I](Freaking out that this is low due to Anastrozole for one week 3x/.5 M,W,F) [/I][/B] Prostate-Specific Ag, Serum Prostate Specific Ag, Serum [B][U]9.3[/U][/B] [B]High[/B] ng/mL 0.0 - 4.0 01 [B][I](Biggest concern is the PSA going up again even though on a week on CIPRO.
