  1. 24hr-Urine and Blood Test results

    When I first saw my HRT doctor, he said my condition may be because I lost around 70 lbs in 2005, causing my hormones to get off balance. That's why he said to stay off the shots until I had these tests done. I think a refeed sounds like a good idea, but I don't think I am to off from my...

  6. 200mg every 4 weeks??

    Sorry if I came across like I was showing animosity towards Dr. Crisler I don't have any at all. I was just really upset at my endo for him telling me I shouldn't be feeling bad and that I didn't need the treatment. FYI (not that it really matters)I didn't mention anything about insurance on...
