[QUOTE="chasedat, post: 59152, member: 13875"] Hi guys, I'm about 2 weeks in on my daily protocol now. 22mg daily. Total cumulative of about 154mg weekly. l was previously taking 90mg e3.5d with a total weekly cumulative of 180 mg. On my 90mg e3.5d my total T was 1497. estradiol (not sensitive, it's unavailable in this country) was 64. No major negative side effects. I did however feel like I'd benefit from lower estrogen. My mood wasn't the best, and my libido could use improvement. Physically, I felt great though. I was maybe a little more emotional than I should had been. Nothing major. My SHBG has always been low. Was around 13. I wanted to combat this by attempting a daily protocol. I also want to maintain the most stable levels possible. I have the time and wherewithal to maintain a daily protocol, and the folks who have tried it have had great success with it. So I want to give it a try. There are no doctors in this country that have any idea what they're doing in regards to TRT. I know a few locals who are on TRT and they can't seem to find a decent doctor either. I'm in Philippines by the way. So my point is, I'm on my own. I've been on my own for 7 months since I started TRT and am doing heavy research and being safe of course. So, 2 weeks in on my daily protocol. I'm experiencing joint pain. Especially in my knees. Woke up with a sore neck this morning, and just have general aches and pains for no reason. This all happened frequently back before I started TRT. I was sore all the time. On my 90mg e3.5d protocol, I never experienced this. Now, the only time I've heard of folks having issues like this is when they crash their estrogen by taking too much of an AI. I'm not taking an AI. Has anybody experienced this before? Specifically when switching to a daily protocol? Should it be temporary until things balance out? My total weekly cumulative will me 26mg less than my e3.5d weekly cumulative I had going prior. However, it's my understanding that [URL="http://www.peaktestosterone.com/Increased_Testosterone_From_Frequent_Injections.aspx"]less is more when on a daily protocol. [/URL] I appreciate any input fellas. Back when I was brand new, I crashed my levels. It was awful. I spiraled into depression and it was an over all bad time. I just want to be sure this doesn't happen again :) [/QUOTE]
