Androgel is Useless

I have an appointment with a doctor from

www.bodylogicmd.com on Tuesday. I will fly to dr john crisler or others in another state if needed.

My endo suggestion was to increase Androgel!
I went from 357, to the mid 200’s, to 166 in 5-6 weeks on the gel while on the gel , I do not think more androgel is the answer, at this rate I will have less then 100 T in a week or so!.

      Beside the obvious problems of low T,  my  joints and  parts of my  body that I  injured over the  years hurt. 

I had gyne surgery last week too, I am moving around like an old man

      I am  sooooo  glad to have  you guys to  talk to and get info,  these docs are really clueless.  KSman  explained more to me in one post here then 3 all my time with the  endo [/quote]

Yeah these fookers are better than most MD’s or Endo’s, they should teach classes!

I inject test cyp EOD with .5ml .5" #29. It is slow to load but injection rates are fast enough.

If one uses a #31, the needle is probably 5/16" long… SC use only.

If one has thin [lean] skin, a .5" needle is long enough for IM injections in the delts, biceps and vastus lateralis. Remember, that for frequent TRT doses, the volumes are very small.

Why? With a tiny piston, if you apply a firm pressure, you are developing around 200PSI. I did the math once… can’t recall the exact numbers. With a large syringe, the pressures are not very high.

At 6’1" and now 283 as of this morning I assume my skin is “thick” (read I am a fat guy). I seem to carry most of my weight around the mid section and face, and my legs are by far the most lean area of my body, but I am not sure how far in I would have to go to get to muscle? How would one determine this. I have read that sub Q T is also very effective for HRT.

well I went to the clinic this morning to see my new Dr. Apparently she is out of network. It would have been nice to know that when we set up the appointment. Any way they have a PA that is in my network. I can see her tomorrow. so i guess that gives me a little more time to formulate my argument.

All that being said, is the arimidex/liquid anastrozole a long term med to be on? I will be on HRT the rest of my life, will i go on and off the AI and stay on the HCG or stay on all three?

By the way I really appreciate this forum as a resource. Knowledge is power, and I am finally able to take the power over my health care, and this is good since the consequences where already mine to have. I also really appreciate all the time and experience you guys and gals are sharing with me. It’s like I am getting something for nothing. So p-lease let me know if I can be of assistance to you in the future.
