[QUOTE="jack64, post: 51763, member: 14030"] Thanks guys, unfortunately, the docs in my area aren't experts, and I probably can't afford the online route right now with my insurance. I didn't have blood work done before getting anastrozole, the doc just went by possible high estradiol symptoms I was having like water retention, hard sensitive nipples, bloated, acne. For about 10 days I was eating 1/2 the calories I usually do per day and exercising and my weight wasn't dropping or fat decreasing. Started TRT because I had a lot of low T symptoms (age 51) and blood work was under 300. It really sucks the anastrozole hit my knees/shoulders so hard and fast. I was under the impression cutting a 1mg tablet and taking .25mg twice a week was a low dose and relatively safe. I'm getting burning pain in my left knee right now and it's maybe been 10 days since the last .25mg anastrozole. In 6 weeks of TRT my hair also thinned noticeably and I got chest/stomach/back acne 10x worse than I ever had as a teen. My mood and energy level were getting a lot better which I really liked, felt a lot less stress, but I'm not sure if I can put up with all the bad sides. [/QUOTE]
