[QUOTE="RobDutch, post: 147930, member: 38493"] Good morning Guys, In my search to find my sweetsport (and man, this is pretty difficult) i did another bloodtest to see where i'am on bloodwork and on feeling. First i would like to mention that i'am happy i switched over to shallow IM in the delts, it is so much more comfortable than deep IM and the bloodwork reading or values for TT & FT are the same on IM and Shallow IM. Than back to the other issue E2, the 6 weeks before blooddraw i asked myself (after reading many pro's and cons about e2) do i need Arimidex? So i stopped taking Arimidex for 6 weeks, and as you can see in the attached sheet my e2 is creeping up to 58 and there was almost always an itchy or burning sensation in my nipple area and my joint where stiff and especialy knees where popping. But i just waited out the whole 6 weeks, because i wanted to give it a real change to go without AI. So after the the bloodwork was done i went back to 2 x 0,25 arimidex per week at the same time as my TE injection (I inject 2 x per week 62,5 mg TE on THU and SUN). And the sensitivity around my nipples became lesser, but not gone yet. The joints are also improved but also not optimal. So I will stay on this protocol for another 5 - 6 weeks and see how i feel and what bloodwork tell me. One thing that always comes up on the bloodwork is low cortisol free 8AM, don't realy know what this does or what negative symptomes it is related to. My current protocol is every 3,5 day IM with 62,5mg TE every day with injection 0,25mg Arimidex (so twice a week) every day 120mg erfa Thyroid every day 7,5mg prednisolone every day 30mg DHEA every day 3mg copper (as it was lowish) every week 1 small vial D-cure to raise Vitamin D every day 22,5mg zinc About my symptoms; I think i'am still not dialed in to my sweet spot, - as my sleep is still far from good. (sleep average 5-6 hours, and wake up a few times a night) - don't wake up very energized in the morning - Although i do CrossFit 4/5 x per week, my diet/food is i guess in order with Macro's but very difficult to loose fat from chest and lovehandles etc. anyone that would like to contribute to my views or my protocols are welcome, as most people on the forum we're all here to learn from eachother.
