Whether its the E causing your problem I don't know, but if you're retaining a lot of water in your midsection and torso, that can certainly get you out of breath, as it will constrict your lungs and your internal organs. If you're a little overweight to begin with, it will make it even worse.

That is my point high E2 makes me hold over 6 lbs. of water. For a long time I was on water pills until we lowed my E2. Now I don't need them.

i am pretty lean 9% bodyfat..but yest in last 2-3 weeks went from 184 lbs. to 191..i would guess water from the hcg i did then started the cyp.
is that something that the arimidex would help also if we find me E is high?

peewee--How long have you been on TRT?

Have there been any changes in your electrolytes (primarily sodium and potassium)?

Of course one's BP goes up when they are mad or stressed. This is a natural and appropriate physiological response.

Yes, sodium should be watched. That's good advice for all. It has been shown that those who consume large amounts of table salt predispose themsleves to HTN.

Consider that all the men who become hypertensive while NOT on TRT. IOW, the two may not be related.

Generally, high blood pressure is associated with hypogonadisms, and it lowers once TRT is initiated.

Yes, estrogens must be clecked. It is very important that an "ultrasensitive" assay is run.

got my blood back...my Estradiol sensitive was 5 range 3-70 that was 10 days after my last shot.
free t 11.3 8.7-25.1
serum t 320 241-827
fsh lh <1
my anxiety has been bad and my bp been as high as 160-92...mostly 135-85
dr told me to try prop. to get T back in me then possibly enenthate after if frequent shots bother me.
so ot doesnot look like high E is causing my problems..could it be water retention,.can i try 10 mgs of nolva or arimidex.

your estradiol might be low. i am a patient of swales and my E2 is 24 which he says is perfect, even though my total Estrogens are 170 which is high <130. so back on DIM i go he wants me to try TMG. and 135/85 is borderline or prehypertensive. i think you need to relax and let things take it's course. don't take your BP everyday let things settle down.
