  2. need a lesson on SHBG

    What is it that he knows? I would love to understand the correlations between normal T levels (with TRT) high E levels and low SHBG? The plan right now is a slightly lower T dose, 160 mgs/wk still with 250 IU HCG Day 5 & 6. He will see how this affects the levels in a month.

  4. need a lesson on SHBG

    Dr. John knows what's up. I was on 200 mg/wk, going to bring it down to 160 mg/wk to see how it affects the levels, and will do this for 1 month followd by more testing. So I'll wait and see. Yeah, I do all my testing at quest. Do you know the specific difference between BAT and Free T? Is...

  5. need a lesson on SHBG

    SHBG, well I don't know too much about it. I know that sex hormones are bound to it, but, What is the best level of SHBG? How should a low SHBG and high estrogen level be percieved? I have a pretty extensive history of higher estrogen levels, and my Dr. says high E2 and low SHBG is indicative...

  6. Maybe a stupid question...needles and syringes

    You can get the needles and syringes at a pharmacy with a script of course. I ran into a slight problem though with my local walgreens, they never had the pins I needed, they generally had slin pins in stock. They said they would order it for me, then they said it was not in stock. I just...

  9. Low Blood Glucose

    Wow that sounds like where I am at right now. I would love to hear the rest of this story, and the exact protocol that was used to help ameliorate this, aside from the mental changes. I feel like estrogens are ruining my life, but it's hard to turn my head and not think about how my health has...

  10. Low Iron

    I have been going through a similar situation, except my WBC's have been more elevated. My question is just what are the correlations between low iron and infection. How/why do these relate during infection? All of my results are in this thread. Invalid Link Removed

  11. Any studies on TRT effecting WBC's

    I don't know? Maybe because he's not as sharp as he used to be? LOL This really doesn't make any sence now. He mentioned screening for a certain type of luekemia that does this to white blood cells, but I guess he tested clotting factors instead. For the last 2 months my iron has been in the...

  14. Any studies on TRT effecting WBC's

    As far as my history of elevated E, it's not really documented, I just have had gyno since I was about 10 or 11 yrs old, and going by my bloodwork from Feb. Do you suggest I just go ahead and take this into my own hands as far as dosage or wait to consult with my endo (I see him Sept. 6)? He...

  15. Any studies on TRT effecting WBC's

    I would have thought that too. Believe me I feel very alone in my medical endeavors, I am the only one fighting, my resources are no greater than a few discussion boards. I'm really begining to give up at this point.

  16. Any studies on TRT effecting WBC's

    Very true Cpeil2... I just want to make sure that there isn't something wrong with my immune system. unfortunately I was never given a CBC before starting TRT, or before my surgery. I feel like my immune system is not nearly as strong as it used to be. Since about 4 yrs ago. It seems every...

    Agreed. To note one thing I have a history of elevated estrogen levels, which my endo had said can sometimes be caused by viral issues.

  18. Any studies on TRT effecting WBC's

    Thanks JansZ. The elevated Cortisol readings were from Feb before iniating TRT. I have not used Prednisone in over 5 years. I did recently have a shoulder surgery (June 6) but it is interesting that he linked the elevation to Testosterone before saying it would be from my surgery.

  20. Any studies on TRT effecting WBC's

    I saw a hematologist regarding my elevated WBC's. He atributed the elevation of my WBC's, neutrophils, and decrease in lymphcytes to depo testosterone. I have never heard of testosterone effecting someone in this way, I may have heard about a possible increase in RBC's or hemoglobin, but has...
