Hey guys! I've been looking st this site for about 3.months and finally registered last night. I'm 38, 79.5 inches (little over 6'7"), weigh 414 yesterday. I'm obviously very over weight but not as overweight as I was 6 months ago at 470 something. I was an athlete until an injury stopped all that for me. I am a really big guy (18EEEE shoe, 22 inch neck, 58 shoulders, 46 waist at current weight) and when I got in football shape for college I was 335 at about 12-14 BF and felt amazing. I ran, biked, and kickboxed even after my injury until I was 29 when I injured my back. I packed on a ton of weight, became sedentary, gained even more weight, quit chewing tobacco and gained even more weight. Went to doc a year ago which started this weight loss/lifestyle change and I feel much better. I'm also on 1/3 of the bp meds I was on initially, off of all other meds including anxiety meds and am hopeful loosing another 75 lbs will make me able to get off the bp meds.
My test was 135 1 year ago and my doc (who is pro T and knows a ton about it) said he wanted me to change my life, get of of anxiety mess (benzos) and loose as much as I foul in a year and then look into T. Well I got my T tested in the morning fasted, and it was 182 L which is well...bad. So having been an athlete (college O line) I've had my share or trauma to my body specifically testicular and head trauma. I was a catch wrestler back in the day before MMA was a thing and trained Muay Thai which at my size was a big time strain on my body and jointsI've also had a two year operate pain management for my spinal stenosis that was about 7 years ago. I took xanax for 13 years at 3 mgs a day. Off that 7 months and will never take a benzo again!
So back to my doc, (sorry typing this at job site on iPad) he tested a few things 3 days ago:
Test 182
PSA 1.22
LH. 2.7
FSM 1.6
he said he expected these levels as I beat the tar out of myself for so many years and said he wanted an endo to give him the ok before I start test. So here are some questions as I've read a ton of anti endo comments...what is the endo going to test for? Should I give him some values i want tested? If they recommend a clomed restart what do I say since I'm on the borderline age wise (I have kids and no more is no problem) so I can skip. I've been waiting a year already to start T and Imam ready to get to the next level of fitness and weight loss. Thank you all for reading and any all help.
Meds: bystolic 5 mgs (bp beta blocker) cialis 5 mgs (ed had 4-5 years much much better since weight loss)
HCTZ 25 (diuretic) will be off soon with more weight loss Fish oil, D3, CMZinc, baby aspirin,
