I just had a huge blowout today with my endocrinologist and was discharged as a patient. I went on referral from my PCP. My PCP is treating my secondary hypogonadism from AAS use in the past. I receive 100mg/Test Cyp once a wk. I have bloodwork scheduled this Fri to check Total T, E2 and Vit D 25hydroxy. My levels before TRT were Total T of 191ng/dl. I went to my endo today and ask them to check my ACTH, Plasma Renin, Cortisol, DHEA-S, Prolactin, Aldosterone IGF-1 and to do an ACTH Stim Test along with 24hr Cortisol Saliva. I told them my symptoms and why me and my PCP thought these test were necessary and they down right refused to test any of these things. I have had an Dexamethasone Suppression test which was normal and here are some other numbers. MY CBC and CMP was all normal. My Prolactin on 3/2/11 was high @ 22.4 Ref is (3.7-17.9), My FSH was 2.01 Ref (1.55-9.74), LH 2.77 Ref (1.5-9.3) A1C 5.1 Ref (4.0-6.0). T4 Total 7.39 Ref (5.53-11.0) TSH High Sensitivity 3.830 Ref (.465-4.68). I had a Pituitary MRI done on 2-20-11 and it was also normal. I am having so many physical symptoms and here they are:
My symptoms over the past year that have progressively gotten worse.
