[QUOTE="Bluesjunky76, post: 244542, member: 44959"] Hi, I remember your name from the peaktestosterone.com! It's good to be here. You make a great point about depo-t doses. For years I was told the standard dose was 100mg a week, but when I split that dose into 2 injections a week under the care of my former urologist I was a mess: anxious, BP spikes, insomnia, etc. Eventually, we brought it down to 80mg but it was still too high (Trough around 900-950). At 60mg my anxiety is much more manageable and the trough sits between 500-660. And yet my current urologist always makes it a point to tell me what a low dose on I'm on. In fact, I'm on the lowest dose of any guy he's ever treated, he says, which tells me there's a lot of guys getting seriously overmedicated! You have to listen to your own body. So you think I should start with testing the SHBG then? And it sounds like I don't need to test free T if I can just calculate it from SHBG and my current TT numbers? Maybe I'll start there and that can give me a better sense of why my T levels are always pretty good and yet my body doesn't seem to be utilizing the hormone fully. And I would definitely be open to telemedicine as I hate going to Dr.'s offices! White coat hypertension and anxiety, though I'm getting better. Anyway, thanks for your input and it's good to be here! The setup of the site feels a lot like Peaktestosterone, too. [/QUOTE]
