[QUOTE="kafahmy, post: 79024, member: 15583"] Nelson, Glad you jumped in man...I'm a big fan of yours sir and I've watched a lot of your youtube Videos. To answer your questions: -I try to get 8 hours of sleep which is not always the case but I never ever get less than 7 hours of sleep while on weekend I get around 9 hours. -[COLOR=#333333][FONT=arial] I am 28 years old, 6'1 ft, 215 lbs with body fat around 17% . [/FONT][/COLOR]-I've tested for sleep apnea before jumping on TRT and I scored 7 on the AHI scale, while on the CPAP i scored 3. Spoke with the doctor and he said it's a mild sleep apnea , it might be contributing to the way I feel but it's not sever to the point I feel so bad. He suggested CPAP but after some discussion he said if I quit smoking and lose some weight I should score less than 5 on the AHI scale and in that case there is no need to treat it ..at least for now. ..Well I haven't smoked a cigarette since then and I am doing all I can to drop as much fat as possible (goal is to reach 12% body fat by the end of this year) I've noticed that my sleep is way better and snoring doesn't occur that often as before. I will go get retested in couple month to see if it got any better) -blood pressure is always optimum last time I checked it was 117/75 -I can't say I'm stress free, but nothing mahor -I did 4 point cortisol saliva test before TRT and I scoreda little high in the morning but within range in for the other 3. -my CBC is a bit complicated, I have thalassemia minor. so my RBC is always high but hemoglobin and Hematocrit are within range .
