[QUOTE="Tgrappler, post: 124462, member: 26924"] hello all. i really hope to get some hints on what could be going on with me or my protocol. i've been on the TRT cream for about 4 months total. when i first started on the protocol my T numbers were extremely low and e2 was high. i felt like everything in my life became an unsurmountable challenge. going to a restaurant would usually give me a solid anxiety kick that drained me out of all the energy. my love for exercising was also cut short because whenever my HR raises, my body starts going into a full blown panic mode. in the first month of following the protocol i definitely felt better. there were days when i was so thrilled i really felt that all this nasty is finally coming to some logical conclusion. i got my "mojo back", i had strength and hope to push through whatever comes my way. although still difficult, but i was able to get back to training. about a month ago i ran out of cream and pretty much around the same time came down with a bad flu. all in all instead of continuing my protocol as i should have, i messed up and didn't have access to the TRT for 3 weeks. all the "progress" i've made over the last few months seem to have disappeared. now i know that i had to keep going with TRT and it was a big mistake to stop, like i did... but i just cannot stabilize again. my numbers from the last lab, after i ran out of cream... things got back to where i was before i had started TRT: Free Test = 35 Range 46.0-224.0 pg/mL) SHBG = 76 (Range 10-50 nmol/L) Bio Test = 76 (Range 110.0-575.0 ng/dL) Estradiol = 32 (Range < OR = 29 pg/mL) it's been 2.5 weeks of constant struggle. maybe i'm forgetting how bad things used to be... but the insomnia and non-stop panic are becoming a little much to deal with. today i passed out around 11PM and woke up in cold sweat at 2AM my body is trembling, i'm crying and full panic and my poor wife is beside herself with worry. overall i'm feeling like i have some good days and moments where i have no anxiety at all and then one little trigger and i'm literally spiraling out of control. i'm currently on daily cream 2x / day 0.5 ml/dose. (concentration of 200mg/ml lipo compounded cream). i have also taken 2mg of AI twice in the last 4 days. i'm looking for any advice or at least a hint that this might be "normal", that i'm still stabilizing. it's just so bizarre that i can go from seemingly feeling fine to shaking, crying and falling into a deep depression in a matter of hours.
