[QUOTE="Finallycured, post: 33910, member: 12892"] Ero, you are obviously really sharp and I'm confident you picked up my saying "depression" was major issue; libido, etc. was second. So I owe you the balance details- He wanted to see me once a week for shots (I refused as I noted) because for people with MDD and taking ADs, moods can go in a really bad direction fast. Also, once it was confirmed it "seemed to be working" confirmation was (well, still is) being determined by tapering off the ADs. I am a difficult patient medically and I am very stubborn. True, he may or may not be the "best" at TRT but his concern for my safety, conservative way of practicing medicine etc., makes him ideal for me now. Yes, later, when it's clear no need for ADs ever again, I may find someone else. I had appointment today at 12:30. He is fine with twice weekly provided I come in once a month (no co pay for a shot) so one of the nurses can confirm I am doing ok. and he can go over blood work with me during months it is there so I stop trying to micromanage this. I agreed. BW after 4 weeks, then at six week intervals.... (regardless, I will still do my own E2 periodically because I want to :-) Anyway, I have an RN to give me shots (she will teach me) as he knows. What I didn't tell him is she doesn't about details about best syringes/best injection sites, etc. So, what size needle gauge/length? For an insulin syringe, won't I need a larger needle to first fill it? I can reach my glutes easily but wouldn't quads be easiest? Don't want Sub Q (for some reason it grosses me out). Thanks again!
