[QUOTE="Jackerreed, post: 205320, member: 42660"] Thanks that’s really helpful. Thanks for the thorough response. To answer your questions: Before AI (while originally on 260mg, before the reduction to 220mg): [LIST] [*]Heavy variation in BP readings. Only occasionally seeing above 160/80 but semi-frequently (once or twice a week) getting quite close to that. [*]Joints felts far too fluid (i.e. I felt like a flexible woman in a yoga class instead of being more structured in my posture) [*]Consistently poor quality sleep, plenty of night sweats [*]Less endurance in exercise to a notable extent, felt incredibly heavy in my movements [*]Emotional regulation was odd. I found myself getting competitive in conversations and/or arguments with women, including my Mom. This is very uncharacteristic of me. [*]Shifts in my gastrointestinal health such that I had larger gaps of time in between BMs [LIST] [*]Such that I would have a BM within several hours of taking an AI and would subsequently feel far less bloated [/LIST] [/LIST] Without the AI on 220mg I feel okay, albeit it really doesn’t feel as natural. Most recently I was off of it for 3-4 weeks and got back on it after stressing that I was messing my body up somehow. Only to feel pretty shitty again after a week of taking it. That being said I’m going to hold off on the anastrozole. Since I know I feel fine without it would it be safe to reduce ones dose of testosterone rapidly (in my case tomorrow) or does it make more sense to remove the AI and give it a couple of weeks before titrating the testosterone?
