[QUOTE="rugbyhit, post: 123774, member: 21887"] Thought it might be helpful to someone if I continued updating on my TRT journey. Last I posted, i though i had crashed my E, but subsequent labs showed that it dropped, but didn't crash. Labs on 8/30, the week after i dosed 12.25mg of anastrazole had E @ 31 (not sensitive test) and T @ 1500+...etc. Here are my results from 9/4/18....a fully 2 weeks from my last T dose/AI, but was still running HCG at 250iu 3x week, which i ended on 9/20 total T 888 (ref 264-916) free T 21.2 (7.2-24) DHEA 257.5 (71.6-375.4) TSH 1.450 (.450-4.5) LH .1 (1.7-8.6) IGF-1 255 (61-200)- this has always been high for me since i started TRT 62 weeks ago ESTADIOL (sensitive) 33.7 (8-35) SHBG 38.4 (19.3-76.4) thyroid and cholesterol are all in range low D3, upped my dose to 5000iu/day possible low iron from donating to control hemotocritic, so added iron pill (Dr told me low iron can contribute to anxiety) So here I am (9/25/18) at 5 weeks, no TRT, stopped HCG (last Wednesday was last 200iu dose). I hooked up with Dr Saya @ Deft, was about to jump back on the TRT train with good guidance, buy I'm nervous. One lingering effect since the 12.25mg anastrozole episode, I have been battling anxiety big time. Its dissipated but it comes in waves during the day, wakes me up like clockwork during the night. Certain thoughts trigger it, like my kids going away to college, certain ambient music the creates a melancholy mood, thoughts about the future.....It’s frustrating because this has NEVER been me. I have always been the rock, now I’m a “drop of a hat” away from having to work through a series of rational thoughts to get away from the anxiety, or avoid certain situations or topics so I don’t have to confront the thoughts that create anxiety. I thought by now, 5 weeks away from TRT, I’d be at homeostasis, back to normal. I’m better but a long way from my “real self”.
