high bp and shortness of breath

[clike]

I have been researching on the forum about this and cant find a clear answer. Wondering which cause which. I have been on trt for the past 6 months and the past 2 months i have been expeirencing these side effects. I have tried and checked everything i have read on this forum. My clinic let me dump blood even tho my numbers were good, tried lowering estrogen, lowered my trt dose. i inject m w f and its really hard to breath the day after and my blood pressure goes up. it was not high pre trt. i have an appointment tommorow with my regular doc i have a feeling they are going to be no help.

How much Test EOD? Any AI and/or HCG?
Does your PCP already know about your TRT protocol?

I was only doing test. 40mg eod. When i started having problems i cut back to 30mg m w f. My PCP does not know about trt protocol. He supports me getting on trt, i just went through a clinic for better care.

Im really starting to wonder if this is all anxiety related

Try subcutaneous injection or even better transdermal gel (gives more steady levels without ups and downs).
There is one case documented where the user injecting it in the buttocks actually injected intravenously with symptoms like yours: Acute respiratory distress following intravenous injection of an oil-steroid solution

You might want to get checked for a deep vein thrombosis (DVT). I am quitting after 7 weeks and go in this morning for a doppler... I think I have a serious problem... but I hope not TOO serious... right leg and ankle swollen, cord-like vein running up my rt calf to knee.
This is a known side effect of TRT, but rare... some guys get it with no DVT symptoms. I didn't think it could happen after such a short time on TRT, but we'll see.
Your shortness of breath is what caused me to recommend a check.
Might be anxiety too... a common side effect of TRT.
