New update on my progress on Jatenzo, in the beginning I was taking Jatenzo once daily and starting feeling not as good after starting twice daily dosing. When I excersise mildly about 15 minutes later I start to feel strange in my head and feel run down.
I actually thought my levels were going to end up low and took double the dosage and it took the unwell feeling to the next level confirming my levels are already too high. I'm going to split the capsule in three quarters or by half and store the remainder in a glass vial for in the evening.
My A1C decreased 1.5% in less than five weeks and fasting this morning was 132. Just for some reference, when my Total T is 600 my Free T is 30+ and I believe this is driving the hematocrit upwards and can only imagine where my Free T is when at 989.
I also become extremely irritable and moody after my evening Jetanzo dosing. These higher Total T levels are also dragging my ferritin levels down at a time when they were on an upwards trajectory before starting Jetanzo. My SHBG is also suppressed to 14 and believe the higher Total T to be the reason, on injections (469 ng/dL) SHBG was 24.
Jetanzo dosing on 158 twice daily.
Total T = 989 -> 2 hours after in the morning
Total T = 668 -> 6 hours after
Total T = 250 -> 12 hours after in the morning before my Jetanzo
Hematocrit = 56.1
Hemoglobin = 18.1
Triglycerides 331-> 196
A1C 9.5-> 8.0
