[QUOTE="RobRen, post: 100198, member: 17674"] [b]TRT and DVT[/b] Sorry for the delay in responding Nelson but wanted to provide input from my hematologist visit. According to him there is no conclusive evidence relating my TRT treatment (Testosterone cypionate, HCG, and Anastrozole) to getting a DVT. As you might expect, I was pretty happy to hear that after my PCP and Vascular Surgeon were adamant that I stop the TRT treatment. The only thing that changed prior to me getting the DVT was the injections in my back to relieve lower back pain caused from playing football for 13 years. Young and dumb brother - run through them and not around them. :) I had been on TRT for 7 years and it has improved my quality of life. I played sports during my younger years up into the collegiate level, as I mentioned above and continued lifting 5 days a week until I was 49. All the sudden it didn't matter what I did, I was losing muscle mass, sex drive, and energy, much less the will to keep fighting it. TRT changed that for me but wish our health care system would recognize the value and come up with a solution for the high Hematocrit / Hemoglobin. I struggle with this so donate blood every 50 to 60 days and now I am on blood thinner for the next 6 months. Hoping a side effect will be to lessen the effect of high Hgb but we will see. By the way the blood thinner medicine kind of puts an end to the local blood banks wanting to allow me to donate blood so that will be a problem. Have a suspicion high Hemoglobin could play a role in getting the DVT as well. Thanks for all you do researching and providing information for those of us on TRT. [/QUOTE]
