So, went in for the usual 6 month checkup with the Endo for my thyroid. I ended up going to a lowt service for TRT after this guy kept on and on with Clomid. I was doing fine with Clomid (745-785) but I wanted more out of trt than just fine though. At the time, he wouldn't prescribe test cyp or HCG because he wanted to see how well I responded to it. Then I decided to switch over to a lowt company after the doc at the consult agreed with me that if I want my levels to top out, I should at least try for it and see where I land. Well, apparently with their regimen I was doing about as well as I was on Clomid...Well worst at first, 465 or 485 at the 6 week mark and then they increased my dosage. So, my Endo says that he wants to run a full Test estrogen panel this time with a different lab group (they took 4 regular sized tubes out of me) along with the same TSH T3 and T4 panels I have done every 6 months. This is all after I told him I went with a lowt site and that it wasn't going through my insurance at all, he said that it'll probably cost a fortune in the long run. He told me about how Androxal was just filed with the FDA back in February and that a lot of that research with enclomiphene looks promising. Anyway, after all that he asks me how set I am at reaching the max range and I told him I was pretty set. He asks to do a panel and what I'm currently taking (200mg/week Test cyp 1000IU/week HCG) for trt. He then kinda chuckles and says "ya know I have this 45 y/o guy who comes in here for hrt and before he even denies that he's on some stuff I show him his tests and ask him if he's going through foreign labs to get the stuff he's using and he tells me he's going to do what it takes to get what he wants. If you're about to do something similar or are already doing this, let me know now and I can at least mitigate some of the damage you do to yourself by prescribing this to you legitimately. Because it's almost like heroin users, they're gonna find or reuse needles because they want their high. Denying them needles without a prescription doesn't stop them from getting needles or drugs - that's why they have needle exchanges in cities with IV drug problems, it keeps these people from infecting themselves with something else." I thanked my endo and got my blood drawn, Now I'm just waiting for the results and debating about what to do next.
So, with all that being said I'm now kinda wondering what to do after I get my results back...?
