Hey guys,
Need some advice, I’m 35 and have been on TRT for 2 years at this clinic, first time being on TRt after years of steroid cycle abuse.
Basically I was treated for hypogonadal fatigue and put on 200mg of test cyp split up twice a week, arimdex .5 twice a week but I only take about .25 twice a week. Here’s the thing, I was also prescribed Xanax being that this was a primary care clinic along with being a HRT doctor, I had abused my Xanax so they cut me off and cut me off my Hormorne therapy as well with a 30 days notice even though it was really a 21 day notice due to snail mail. So I’m left coming off and have one of 2 options find a doctor which I’m curious if they will even have anything to do with me following my recent dismissal or hop back on with My own protocol and follow the typical guidelines I’ve been using and doing my own blood work but relying on sources that are well… not so reliable. Any advice would be great, and I’m already dropping the Xanax so I don’t need any tips on that monster as it’s a problem I already have addressed.
This is what I do. Forums other than this one can be used to find really good sources. I found one that is great. Under $20 for a 10 mL vial of properly dosed Test E in cottonseed oil (that is also shipped from within the US). No PIP, and the blood work is right in line with the pharma test I was using though a T clinic. I pull my own labs though discountlabs. It isn’t hard to find good sources if you do your homework. I just buy enough that I don’t run out any time soon.
I probably save $2K a year doing it solo, vs the T clinic. Just can’t get lazy on the lab work, or adjusting if your protocol is giving you shit lab work, or BP issues.
This place which will remain unnamed, is fairly high volume. I found out about them through a powerlifter friend that uses them. A few of my buddies are now using that place. My blood work (TT, FT, E2, DHT) on their Test is very consistent with pharma test I had been using. It has less PIP than the pharma stuff too.
They are using a volume strategy. Selling more $20 bottles of Test that cost $2 to make, vs less $50 dollar bottles. They are by far the most popular source on that forum, so I think it is working.
I don’t think they are scamming people. Another buddy tried to order Var from them, which is on their list, and they said nope, we can’t get good raws right now. If they were a scammer, I would think they would send him some winny or something.
They also have all their stuff tested by a guy I think his name is janocik or something like that.
I guess I see too many guys “on TRT” through underground sources that are actually on placebos. Same with anastrozole as well, though other than the money ripoff, does not bother me as much.
Just saying, sounds too good to be true, but I would have no way of knowing for sure. Sounds like it is working well for you. You have your proof. Congrats.
I reached out to a new clinic and told them the scenario and they are going to see me, I told them I’m already on TRT and would like to continue treating my ongoing condition. They seemed cool about it so I’ll let u know if I’m blackballed or if it goes well. I like the idea of doing it myself but I know me I need someone to hold me accountable or I will skip labs and just run a little more testosterone than I should if I go the underground route and I’m not trying to let myself get carried away. Got a wife, kids etc…. Kinda wanna stick around a while for them.
I’ve switched between clinics and regular docs, never had an issue with continuing treatment. Clinics didn’t even ask about past history/drugs/etc. don’t mention it and you’ll likely be fine
Now that you have your ducks in a row, regarding TRT. Let’s talk about your Xanax abuse. Its great to get help with continuing treatment, but benzo use is going to be the issue. Are you still taking them? Dont lie. Its the internet.
