[QUOTE="Davet, post: 31275, member: 12184"] After my doc agreed to up my Testo-gel to 2 x 50 mg sachets a day starting from Jan, I am using one on waking and one after my evening shower. I have noticed I am getting a frosting over my skin where I apply the Gel. After reading Dr Johns book TRT this looks as though it might be poor absorption which would probably explain the virtually non existent rise in my T levels whilst I was running one sachet a day. (My doc wouldn't authorise a full panel of labs at my last Christmas appointment and as I previously mentioned the conversation got quite heated as I nearly came close to telling her she was clueless.) But I thought better of it as I need her on side. She did agree to have my T level checked which came back at 5.4 ...bloods taken at 8.30 am. I must have initially absorbed the double dose gel as I had nipple tenderness. I sourced some arimidex locally and started taking .5mg twice a week which has stopped the tenderness. Is the frosting normal or is it a sign my bod's not allowing absorption ? Got another appointment with my doc mid march and if she refuses a full panel of bloods I will get them done privately. Could be flogging a dead horse with this T-gel route. Cheers Guys [/QUOTE]
