[QUOTE="Belmundo, post: 62084, member: 14461"] Another update: So I got my sensitive estradiol blood test back on the 6th day and it was 8.1 out of (8.0 - 35.0) so the anastrozole definitely brought it down but it had little impact on the lumps and since I took more while also continuing my TRT protocol, I have no idea what my level's are at now. I spoke with Defy and got all my paperwork submitted and I have my consultation scheduled with Dr. Saya on 2/27 which was the soonest he could speak with me. I called Dr. Tamler and it would cost $340 for a consultation with him and the soonest he could see me would be March/April so that won't be happening. I haven't reached out to Dr. Crisler but I'm expecting the same result as Dr. Tamler. Since it was approaching the end of the month I got an email from Prime Body stating they shipped my meds out with the only change being Anastrozole .25mg 2x a week as opposed to 1x a week. As I mentioned, I asked Prime Body if they had someone in their network with more experience to help with my situation so I asked them again because I hadn't gotten an answer. They reached out to their medical director and this was his response "ok this is what he recommended . we are going to up your dose of Anastrozole to 0.5mg 2x a week. your estridiol was on the high side we will try that and see if that makes you feel better and retest your estradiol in 5-6 wks". So they didn't even look at my most recent results because my new estradiol level is 8.1 not 30 anymore so clearly they have no idea what they're doing and are of no help whatsoever. I didn't even respond because I'm just lost for words by this. The lumps are not getting better and in fact feel a lot worse at certain times. I'm not going to be able to speak to Dr. Saya until another 4 weeks so I don't know what to do. Is it still possible to shrink these lumps a bit with this much time having passed? This whole situation really sucks and the fact that Prime Body isn't helping just blows my mind. In the mean time, I've lowered my HCG to about 250-270iu instead of the 350iu, to help minimize some of the amortization but who knows if it will help. [/QUOTE]
