[QUOTE="Irish Goodbye, post: 227974, member: 44087"] I believe I may be having the same problem as well. Currently on 120mg of T per week split into every other day sub-q. HCG 250iu every other day. Haven’t used and AI in months but have been able to keep E2 in normal reference range with DIM and a healthy diet. Have been on TRT for 5 years at the same doses. 6 months ago I started developing severe joint pain in my hands, wrists, elbows, knees, ankles. Like so bad I could hardly walk or hold a coffee cup. Discussed with my doc and ran blood work, everything looked good except moderately elevated HS CRP. Decided to take a month off HCG as my doc had said there was some literature that indicated a potential of developing antibodies to HCG. Didn’t think that was the case, but figured it would be worth a shot. After a few weeks I eventually started to feel a bit better to the point that I could work around our farm and not need to pop Advil morning and night. Wanting to test the theory I added HCG back in at 250iu 3 times per week. Felt good for the first two weeks and now the pain is back with a vengeance. Burning knuckle and wrist pain, shoulder pain, knees, everything. Plus pins and needles in my hands and feet and really aching muscles. Stopped the HCG a last week but no improvement yet. Would love to know if anyone else is having this experience and theories on what could possibly be the underlying mechanism at play here. Obviously something is causing massive inflammation and the only variable I can attribute this to is the HCG, although I can’t figure out how this would be possible. [/QUOTE]
