[USER=15832]@Systemlord[/USER] I agree with you and thanks for the reply.

I'm definitely not judging the new protocol at this point, rather, just seeing of what I am feeling could be a side effect of titrating upward vs. something else non-TRT related. Just seeing if anyone had similar experiences going up or down on dose.

I am going to give it another 3 weeks for a total of 6. ...Being patient and I appreciate you all's patience with newbies like myself.
