I finally got into see the specialist (Endo) after badgering him....he didn't originally want to even see me. Had to wait over a month. Even my GP was stumped as to why he would not see me.
He was nice enough but no matter what I said, he kept on down the path of insinuating I was a roid user/abuser. Not in those words but close enough. Had to stop him a couple of times and ask him what he meant by continually referring to some [my] previous use of "supplements". He responded; steroids and the like. (At first I thought he was talking in the standard definition of them. Even suggested at one stage that some are tainted with steroids - I assume he was trying to get me to confess to something).
This really pissed me off as not matter what I said, I could see he did not believe me. As far as I could ascertain, just because I have hair over my body, am in good shape and can still train well, I must be on the gear. (That and my daughters were in the wait room with me because he kept repeating I must have had no problems in the past).
So in the end, he prescribed an MRI scan to check my pituatry situation in my head and a course of Clomid to start after the MRI. 20mg tablet, split in half and to be taken every second day and then blood tests after the course to see where things stand. The approach on the face of it sounds logical but looking for any input as to whether others see this as a good approach.
