DHEA Issues, anyone else?

I just had the hardest 2-3 weeks trying to figure out what was making me dizzy and lightheaded, panicky, 'speedy', etc. I was only alternating between 25mg and 50mg capsules each day and apparently that was too much. Over the past few months trying to dial everything in, I basically don't need an AI for my TRT/HRT so I'm guessing even that dose is too much for me.

I took my last dose of DHEA on Friday and still recovering (2 days later). I donated blood this morning too in an attempt to clear it out faster and making sure my hematocrit wasn't too high. And when I took even just 100mg caffeine, I would see stars and think I was gonna pass out. It was a crazy couple weeks. Anyone else have issues with DHEA?
 
Yup, try sublingual. Anything over 10mg DHEA makes me feel like ****, anxiety, anger, insomnia etc.

Sublingual feels better? I'm still recovering from it and I haven't taken it since Friday. How long should it take to completely clear my system?

Have you had blood work to check your DHEA levels?

Yeah, less sides, I think less converts to estradiol. Should be cleared in a week I'd say

Not this time, but last May had something similar happen with a higher DHEA dosage and running a couple other things that I though were actually the problem, but now I know it was solely the dhea. That time my DHEA-S levels came back a couple hundred points above normal limit and being that 25mg had me right in the middle of the normal limit, I surely didn't think 37.5mg a day would cause issues.
