[QUOTE="GreenMachineX, post: 214828, member: 15245"] Another update here: today I increased my test just a little more, maybe 11 or 12mg. I realize this is marginally more and for 99.99999% of people, no one should feel this difference, but I do. Heart rate was up to 105 an hour ago, but I was able to bring it down to high 70's to low 80's with 150mg magnesium and 200mg theanine. The funny thing is, my anxiety is basically gone. I'm obviously concerned with this heart rate (and likely blood pressure but I won't take it), but it's different. This just reinforces the idea that 8mg testosterone daily for me doesn't provide enough e2, but the amount of test I need to get enough obviously is a problem too. Tomorrow, I'll drop back to 9-ish mg testosterone, and start the fish oil just at half dose again, 1.2g. I think the 2.4g epa/dha was suppressing cortisol just too much and causing issues. But, it also suppresses NE and this overstimulation feeling to a certain extent and let's me sleep. I'm hoping that maybe the fish oil will let me bring my test dose up to par and keep cardiovascular numbers in line. It was only a couple weeks ago my BP was perfect, but I felt pretty bad too (headache, dizzy, lethargic). Sleep has been an issue the past 3 days, so I've had to resort to 2mg melatonin to sleep which worked mildly well. I got enough sleep to function today. I'll have it ready for tonight as well if I wake up overstimulated again and take another 150mg magnesium as well. I know there's a lot of speculation in this, but I'm at a loss and NOTHING normal I've done the past few years has resulted in normal or decent results. Very curious to see my shbg and e2 as of yesterday. I'll post those results when I get them. [/QUOTE]
