Trying to figure out what is normal for changing a protocol and what would lead to think the protocol is making you worse... I have low shbg and never felt right on Subq EOD. I switched to IM daily for only 2 weeks (ik not long enough) but felt absolute miserable. Decided maybe stable protocols were not for me... I took like 6 days off and planned to do 2 Imjections per week...first injection, few hours later i felt awesome and that slowly faded. Yesterday, I did my first injection for this week (this will be my 2nd week on this protocol) and just keep feeling worse and worse.
My symptoms are fight or flight symptoms that seem like high cortisol, and no appetite, messed up sleep.. high blood pressure and no energy whatsoever.
I feel way worse now than my EOD subq protocol and im not sure how bad you can feel when changing and it still turn out good if you wait and be patient?
I got tested recently on my EOD protocol subq and my e2 and free T was elevated a little... hct and hemoglobin were also. Ferritin was 80 but iron was slightly high so I quit supplementing iron.
I want to add that ive been going to the sauna about 5 times a week the last month because it really helps calm me down afterwards, and I make sure to drink electrolytes ... could this be effecting hormone levels?
Just wanting to either hear theres hope, or that obviously something is wrong. If this doesnt settle in a couple weeks, I may be switching to cream.
