My LH has remained at 3.6 for the time spent off TRT, Total T 91->146 even with the diabetes worsening. My thought is before tapering of the benzo (30 yrs), my body fat was the same as it is now and always had a measure of fatigue which I thought was caused by the medicine, so it's not going to make it to the doctors ears because fatigue is an expectation.
It seems the low-T and diabetes are usually treated together from what I see on the forums, we know diabetes suppresses T and my A1C at the time of the low-T diagnosis was 7.8, but what came first the low-T or the diabetes.
When my T restarted, for a day I was perfectly fine, felt 20 and then the next day T is low and stays there as my diabetes worsens in the coming months. That's what I call a smoking gun.
That medicine held me together and may have been a contributing factor in all health problems. It's almost as if it prevented my T from declining because as soon as I stopped it, T declined rapidly with each small taper.
It was almost as if I was tapering of TRT. My experience when I took the glipizide was about half the experience after my HPTA restart. I'm very sensitive to drugs and androgens, maybe I'm also sensitive to slightly elevated glucose levels and this sensitivity is bad for testosterone.
There are no current test results.
