[QUOTE="daves52380, post: 98422, member: 13488"] There is little information out there about CSR and TRT. I was recently diagnosed with CRS two months ago after ignoring the symptoms for too long. I fit the general main demographics for candidates for this condition, white male, 37 years old, Type-A personality, overly stresses out and lacking proper sleep. I inject 90mg 2x/weekly (180mg/week) and take .5mg anastrozole 2x weekly. T-levels at 1000mg and E2 at 27. I suffer from polycythemia while on TRT. All other numbers are great and I have started regular phlebotomy's to get those numbers down. My CSR symptoms started beginning in November with routine headaches and blurred vision which I assumed was stress related. After labs revealed my HCT was above 55.7 an immediate bloodletting was in order that temporarily relieved the headaches and blurred vision. After about a month and a half the vision problems returned and progressively got worse over the course of the next few months. Symptoms were darkened blurred central vision, distorted objects, change in color saturation, and loss of magnification. I'm going on 4.5 months with no improvements. Even though the Ophthalmologist correlates this directly to cortical steroids he suggests that if symptoms do not improve in a few months to consider getting off TRT. This of course is my last resort as I already have been managing stress and resting more. I am considering cutting my T-dosage in half and completely cutting out the anaztrozole, I want to try 45mg 2x/week (90mg) and see if symptoms improve or should I go cold turkey? Any input from guys who have experience with this and/or suggestions would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
