[QUOTE="lemonflavor, post: 142403, member: 37517"] This is a great thread. For me, it's simply a matter of testosterone overstimulating me, or that's how it feels, to the point of it being unbearable. I would call it anxiety, because I've dealt with that almost all my life, but I'm not really that anxious in my head and never felt any anxiety whatsover about taking testosterone (for those who would assume that). Dr. Saya feels that it has to do with high(er) cortisol, which is the working proposition. I'd love to hear what he has to say on all of this if he's listening in and would want to wade into this difficult subject. I realize mine isn't quite the same as some of the others on this thread. I otherwise do get more energy and feel better mentally. Things have changed a bit after about 4 1/2 months now. I'm undergoing TRT for the second time. I had to go from 90mg a week, to 70, and all the way down to below 50 or I'd be in the emergency room. I seem to be getting more used to it. Whether it's the supplements for cortisol, added morning exercise, and/or just the body adapting, I don't know. I'm starting to slowly raise the dose, and need to get blood work done so Dr. Saya can further advise. Even though my estradiol was only 31 with SHBG of 40 when I was at 77mg, because of the various symptoms I had, I'm still wondering if that's a factor too. Dr. Saya said that mine wouldn't be an easy case. I certainly never expected it to cure all of my ills, which is quite a bit. If I could just tolerate about 100mg I'd be very glad. [/QUOTE]
