I'm enclosing my latest blood work. I was rather surprised that this was all the testing they did this time. My understanding was that the $500 or so charges for this last test would include all of the initial tests I had done.
I'm currently taking:
.9 IU of HGH per day
Thyroid Armour 1/2 grain per day for 2 weeks, then 1 grain.
Testosterone 80mg weekly
Arimidex .5mg same day as testosterone
HCG 1000 IU (I modified this based on a paper by Dr. John to be 500 IU 1 day & 2 days before Testosterone injection.
1 mg of Proscar per day (maybe should try avodart?)
50 mg of DHEA (off-the-shelf Schiff brand)
Just got my results yesterday, haven't heard back from my doctor yet.
The only reading that I cannot figure out is the Insulin. My doc said the first reading at 61 was an error, that if it were 61 my glucose levels would be down to zero.
But, in this 2nd test, my Insulin is even higher. Two errors in a row? And this is with a 12 hour fast. Can anyone make sense of this reading?
Not really sure, as a layman, what to make of the other levels, but - if I understand any of this - it would seem that the Arimidex is not warranted (Estradiol very low, Testosterone very high).
Maybe that explains a bit of my aggression in the gym? I'm not nearly as patient with folks that sit on a machine resting for 5 minutes. Not nearly.
Well, I'm sure I'll talk to my doc tonight. Very curious what he'll make of this - and certainly looking for any comments from Dr. John!
I've put on about 11 lb of mostly muscle during this time. Was at 6.x% body fat, so I needed to gain. Am at 152 lb at 5' 10". 51 years old.
