[QUOTE="mrmurse, post: 137126, member: 38294"] Hey everyone! I've been lurking for a year or so now, ever since I first found out My testosterone was low. I went to my PCP and she tested several things based on my symptoms and the only abnormal lab was my total testosterone. It has ranged from 190-357 over about 6 tests in the past year. I ended up getting treated for sleep apnea in January of 2018 and have managed it well since then. I have seen two urologists and an endocrinologist in the past year. One urologist started me on Clomid for about three months. Halfway through my estradiol was around 53. HE startd me on Arimidex and it brought my estradiol back down. However, I started feeling terrible on the Clomid (even after controling E2). Even worse than before I started...in all aspects. energy, fatigue, libido, joint pain, memory. He told me to stop and we would retest in a month, well my testosterone crashed back down from 700 to around 250. He said the next step would be to start injections, but would not entertain the idea of HCG. Considering I am soon to be 25, I did not like this idea.
