[QUOTE="BigTex, post: 246966, member: 43589"] Been working to get that HCT down and it is working. It started over a year ago when I got prescribed test cypionate. HCT rose quickly to 57. No matter how low I went in the dose it was till high. Three blood dumps alone just this year. Jan 17th my T level was at 956. My HCT was 55 a week ago but two weeks before that I had started taking metformin, baby aspirin and eating a 1/2 grapefruit every day. Ten days ago I completely stopped the test cypionate. However I added 15mg of test base every day as a topical using DMSO and BA. Yea, I know it has a short 1/2 life and can't possibly work.
