Hey guys. Been lurking for a while and am a long time member of a few other well known hrt/trt forums. Would like a fresh take and some different opinions on my issues. I'm gonna try to keep it as short as possible. I'm a 33 year old male
Ive always had some kind of issues going on since a child with anxiety/minor obsessive thoughts And minor A.D.D. Always a bit of an over thinker. But other wise pretty healthy.played a lot of sports growing up. In 1998 at the age of 16 I got diagnosed with Lyme. I never had terrible symptoms. Just tired, intermitent fatigue and some minor but very rare joint pain. Now looking back those were the years I started having bad panic attacks and stronger obsessive thoughts maybe due to Lyme but not sure. I took antibiotics for it a few different times and it seemed to help. I also was on Paxil for about 2 years. Really helped with the panic attacks and then I quit cold turkey and never looked back. I rarely if ever have them. From 20 to 26 everything was pretty good.I started to play hockey again after a few years off and started working out. That's when I got In trouble. I was always pretty thin but not really define. I started working out and getting good results then I got obsessed. I wanted a six pack so bad. I was riding bike 15-20 miles a day. Lifting 3-4 times a week. Playing hockey 1-2 times a week. All while eating 1500 cals a day. I went through a period of job stress and financial stress all while just moving out on my own with gf. My libido crashed. Energy was awful.couldnt sleep,erection quality was little to none. Brain fog/dizziness The typical stuff that comes with overtraining/under eating. Got labs done. All hormones were low across the board. Was down to 145 lbs at 6ft tall from my normal 190.
Started to to calm down on training and eating like a man again and a few numbers came up. My thyroid came back up. But I was left with low normal cortisol and testosterone. I've been all over the map with docs and hrt/trt and nothing seems to help. If tried t/hc/t3hcg/clomid/triptorelin. All in different combos with some of the best docs in the field and still not normal. I'm the closest I've been normal in years. Most symptoms are gone except intermitent fatigue low erection quality/libido. And a lot of muscle pain.
I I could go on forever with what I been through but here are my latest labs. On no meds at all
