[QUOTE="DFL, post: 255693, member: 18604"] I'll try to keep this as simple as I can. I'm in the 6th week of a protocol to come off TRT after 5 years. That is a long time, and I knew to expect side effects. And I've had a lot. But the most troublesome right now is intense, emotional mood swings, and bad anxiety. I know that high E2 can cause those things. I was at 114mg Cyp/week in 3 divided doses, with 500iu HCG/week in 2 divided doses. The protocol has gone like this: Weeks 1-4, HCG 1500iu/week in 3 divided doses, Text Cyp 90mg, 90mg, 60mg, 30mg. Weeks 5-10 Clomid 12.5mg daily, Anastrozole .125 3x week, while tapering HCG weeks 5 and 6. I'm in week 6 and should have two more HCG doses of 200, then 100. My last 10mg Cyp was 10 days ago. I started getting mood swings about 4 days after the last shot of test, and since then a whole bucket list of side effects. I've pretty much been handing it, but I had trouble leaving the house the past few days because of anxiety, dizziness, etc. And yesterday was a day from hell. I tried to ride my bike down the street but couldn't because of the balance problem, I had fits of emotions about my girlfriend who is on a long trip, I had anxiety so bad it was getting scary. And I was on day 4 of insomnia with night sweats. I was literally pacing my living room at one point last night trying to figure out what to do. I even texted my ex-wife about it because I need to talk to someone! Today I felt better for a lot of the day, went for a bike ride and went to the beach, before breaking down on the way home thinking about my girl being gone for a long time. I thought maybe the improvement could be because I took Anastrozole .125 two days in a row. Which made me think, is a lot of the anxiety and mood swings coming from high E2, and is .125 3x/week not enough? Could I control this better with a higher dose? Or something else? Or is is just because I've been on so long? Or should I bump up HCG and stay on it for a bit? I was pretty much at the breaking point last night, and I REALLY don't want to go back on after going through all this. I'd really appreciate any help or suggestions. [/QUOTE]
