[QUOTE="CaptianCurious, post: 153697, member: 38740"] A few other obvious things stick out in your labs: - you may have an issue with blood sugar. I would test your fasting insulin and keep an eye on your a1c (average blood sugar over time) and fasting glucose. An oral glucose tolerance test (with insulin tested) is the gold standard if you can get it. - continuing with above, you should try some insulin sensitizers. Metformin could be an option with your doctor but if it's not, then I'd buy a few otc supplements: lipoic acid and chromium. I may take 3-6 months to improve your insulin sensitivity. - your b-12 is low. That's an easy fix - a bottle is $10, so go buy one. -your thryoid numbers look reasonable. total t4 is a bit middling, so if you have an endo that gives thyroxine to everyone, then a 3 month trial might not be a terrible idea. You can discontinue if you don't notice anything. I'd work on the above while you find an endo who handles Testosterone replacement. [/QUOTE]
