The first time I made my labs the results weren't clear because they showed my testosterone > 15 ng/ml instead of exact values. It was also 36 hours after 100mg injection. A week later I came back and said I want the exact numbers and so it shows 22.4 ng/ml.

If my result were incorrect, then both of them (>15 and 22.4) would be and the odds of that are very low don;t you say?

I apologize if I sound rude. I am currently dealing with a lot of stress and those labs don't help, because It's been 2 months on TRT and I don't feel anything at all. Everything is exactly the same as it was before treatment.
