[QUOTE="Fortunate, post: 216670, member: 42264"] Data point for anyone interested. Natesto has been the most tolerable form of TRT for me. Typically, I get headaches with other forms. I have also noticed a more forceful heartbeat than normal after injecting. I can even feel it in my abdominal aorta (I know, that sounds really weird). I have been following my blood pressure more closely lately and have noticed a general increase while on injections. I started to wonder if the headaches and blood pressure are related (ie, does one cause the other, or does a common process cause both?). I happen to be on a calcium channel blocker for migraine prevention. Have been for a while. I decided it would be a good idea to try a beta blocker for a few reasons. Beta blockers are first line migraine prevention drugs (check, good for me). And, I am starting to believe that Test has beta adrenergic activity that varies among individuals. Maybe I am more sensitive than others? If so, a beta blocker would blunt the effect. Started propanol the other day. I have noticed a definite improvement in the "forceful" hearbeat phenomenon described above. I think I am also tolerating injections better - less headache. That said, I still sense a very minor, dull headache. It may not be related to the injection and I would have to observe for a longer period of time to make conclusions. On the other hand, although I still experience a very mild headache, I think I may have confirmed my theory that my headaches are in some way related to beta agonism and/or blood pressure. Despite all this, I am once again thinking about going back to Natesto. I swing back and forth because while on injections or cream, I long for not getting headaches. I am still a huge proponent of Natesto, but while on it, I wonder if I am under treated a bit? I don't always feel this way. At times, I notice a significant boost in mood. I would even say libido is probably better on it. So, I wanted to provide some input and check with others in this thread. Am I still the only one here interested in Natesto? I'd love for some more guys to give it a longer run so we can compare notes. I would also encourage everyone to follow their blood pressure. It's a good idea in general, but I think it would be useful to see how common BP spikes are after injection.
