[QUOTE="Tonyp56, post: 142819, member: 14856"] Long story short I've had lots of ups and downs on TRT. June 17 2017 went to universal men's clinic in Tulsa Oklahoma, that lasted a year of crashed e-2 etc. (I have Post on board). Went to defy back in July of last year. Anyways I've been battling high e-2, (63 first 3 months, then 67 4 months later.) High hemocrits, blah. Still feel fatigue and not energetic but it comes in cycles. (Current protocol is 500 iu of hcg twice week, 40 mg or testosterone cyp every other day and .125mg of anastrozole every other day. So on Feburary 4th at last appointment was told we need to have limited labs (total t, free t, e-2, cbc, and free t-3 to make sure thyroid was not causing issues) in 3 months. Initial blood work for Defy had tsh of 2.4xx, so 3 months later they checked everything again along with free t3 and t4, and reverse t3, at that time my t3 was 4.3, and was told everything looked good/great.

Decided to do free t3 and cbc at same time so be little less here in about 6 weeks (whenever 3 months ends up being) for followup labs. Tuesday of this week (3-19) went in for blood test and I was fasting. Anyways my free t3 came back at 4.7 (range given is 2.0-4.4). Any ideas why or what is causing?
