[QUOTE="CoastWatcher, post: 28084, member: 2624"] Welcome to Excelmale. You need to find another doctor. I'm afraid that what you were prescribed, 400mg of testosterone every two weeks is going to lead to failure. The half-life of the drug doesn't lend itself to injections every 14 days. You were on an enormous dose of testosterone - 400mg. You will see an enormous spike in your testosterone level, followed by a steady increase in your estradiol level - and you are likely to feel horrible. Typical starting dose for TRT is 100mg every week, or, as more and more well-trained doctors and knowledgeable patients are finding, 50mg every 3.5 days. At the end of a 14 day period you will start the cycle of dual spikes (testosterone and estradiol) all over again. When you began experiencing the anxiety - was your cortisol tested? Thyroid? When you were tapered off testosterone was any attention paid to your HPTA axis? You have faced a lot, and been through a great deal. [/QUOTE]
