[QUOTE="ncturkeyhunt, post: 112859, member: 18780"] Hey guys, just wanted to introduce and get some info, advice and suggestions on how I can address my frustration for TRT. 43 male, overweight but working that. I'll give you the readers digest version of my plight: Several years ago I struggled with no energy, tired, wiped out, etc and had my total T level checked and it was 341. I was referred to a Urologist who was a punk. He said my T level was just fine and all that was wrong with me was I was depressed and needed to exercise. He did order a total and free, which were 342 and 9.4, respectively in early 16. After this quack received the results he let me know that he wouldn't do anything for me and to get me some depression meds and start exercising more. I ended up seeing an alternative medicine doctor who put me on T Cypionate. Unfortunately it was all out of pocket to see him and it was 400-600 bucks every time and I just couldn't fit it in my finances. In addition, he was the closest around to me and he was an almost 2-hour drive away, one way. Fast forward to now, I am so freaking exhausted every day that most days I have to come in from work and sleep for an hour before I can do anything. I'm in Executive Management and I have such brain fog some days that I can't hardly function in decision making. No sex drive, no libido whatsoever and erections are hard to come by (no pun intended). I have no endurance whatsoever, I can't hold out to do anything I finally got so fed up I went to my new PCP and demanded help. He referred me to knew Urologist who prescribed Androgel. The new urologist refuses to do shots because he says they create too many peaks and valleys. Plus, they make my Hemoglobin go way to high, and he's just not comfortable doing shots. He is willing to do the gel and pellets. My insurance is THROWING UP! It's been almost a month and I'm still not approved. The insurance wants another T level. My last one drawn was a month ago and it was TT 231, free 5.1. I have found a compounding pharmacy that will do a cream equal to Androgel for 60 bucks.
