Alright guys. Labs are in. As promised I said I would report on my next set of labs since stopping my Arimidex. As you can imagine I was very curious to see where I would end up especially with all the discussion back-and-forth. Here are some numbers:
estradiol = 72. I was normal range last time at 19 and now much higher.
Testosterone= 1022 high normal and quite a bit higher than last at 831
Free Test= 209.5 High much higher than last time at 144.
Red Blood Cell = 5.9. High
Rest of labs like my lipid’s etc. are all fine
So I will be consulting with the doctor this week if finding out what his recommendations are. Now he doesn’t know I stopped my Arimidex but I will tell him obviously. So my initial observations , I guess I was kind a hoping that my estrogen levels wouldn’t go up that much, but, labs are the labs and That’s why we get them right. This was also the first time that my red blood cell count has been high. Not sure if there is a connection. At this point I think I will likely start back on the prescribed arimidex until the next set of labs. Again these are just initial thoughts right now as I literally got the lab results. So during this experiment, I would say the only thing that was may be a noticeable side was slightly puffier nipples, no sensitivity. But I don’t know how much of this was just my mind playing tricks on me. I say that because I’ve always had somewhat puffy nipples. Stay tuned.
