[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 133566, member: 16042"] At this point I feel as stable/dialed in as I can be within the constraints of how my body reacts to TRT. I wish I could tolerate higher dose because I still have physical impairment, and in the process of adjusting protocol did better physically on higher dose, but hematocrit and E2 Signs and symptoms prevented remaining on high dose. I had statin induced muscle damage several years ago which it seems I never recovered from. I still have muscular recovery and exercise endurance limitations. I have been on TRT just a little over 2 years, but it took 1 1/2 years to reach a stable state. It has been a difficult couple years getting here. I was started on a bad transdermal protocol with compunded chrysin (with starting E2 of 10!). Subsequently bailed on that doc, and have been with Dr Saya for about 1 1/2 years. We first changed to a different transdermal protocol which was better, but still was unsatisfactory. Then went to injection at too high a dose, resulting high HCT and E2. Then I went through the Hell of reducing dosage to current levels where things have stabilized and I feel a bit more normal. Prior to TRT: Total T 281, Free T 3.1 E2 LC/MS/MS 10.1 Now: Age 60 5'10" 147 lb very lean body composition mediocre exercise and endurance capability. Other aspects of life are pretty darn good after the last few years roller coaster. 24mg T cyp QOD 260 iu HCG QOD 0.0625mg anastrozole QOD 12.5 mg DHEA QD 25mg Pregnenelone QD Wide range of vitamins/supplements, mostly vitamins, coQ10, natural anti inflammatories Total T ~1000 Free T ~ 18-20 SHBG 52-54.7 E2 LC/MS/MS 25-30 PSA too high, some kind of yet to be definitively diagnosed prostatitis.
