Hey guys,
I've probably got a little bit more going on than your average new member and while I'll try to not to go on too long I also don't want to leave out any information that could be helpful. I'm 40 years old. At the moment I am 6'1
168lbs. Between the age of 33 and 34 I did three so-called cycles. The first two were boldenone only 500 milligrams per week for about five weeks each... In other words one bottle of British dragon Eq each time followed a year later with my first real cycle of Test E 500 milligrams a week, EQ 500 milligrams a week, dbol 25 milligrams a day for first 4 weeks. Ran the test and Eq for 12 weeks and did proper PCT with HCG and three weeks of Clomid or nolvadex. I had never had any labs up to this point. About two years after this last cycle I was diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome which basically means the doctors don't know what's wrong with you but fatigue is the main symptom you're suffering from. I got blood work done and my total test came back at 360. An MRI also show that my pituitary gland with shrunken but they had no explanation as to why . My LH was also extremely low so I was diagnosed as secondary. My doctor started me on androgel and while there was a minor period of feeling a little better for a couple months after about 8 months my levels were actually dropping and I was not feeling good. Even though I had been working out regularly for about 3 years I was completely unable to put on a single pound of muscle which had never been a problem previously. My doctor at that point offered injectable testosterone as an option but not being fully informed I chose not to go that route and went to an endocrinologist thinking he would be the expert in this area. He started me on clomid 25 milligrams every other day which I took for the following year and a half. I only had 2 blood work done during this period time and my Levels held in the low 400's but I never felt any better. My free testosterone levels during all of this time were extremely low but the endocrinologist said he didn't put a whole lot of weight in the testing for that . Had all the usual symptoms of low T and I now started to lose muscle mass even though I was eating healthier than ever working out regularly which I have been now for the last 5 years straight. During this time I tried eating more, mixing up my routine to shock my muscles nothing worked. I would only put on fat when I would up my calorie intake and I ended up actually losing about 15 pounds of muscle over the period of the last two years or so. I've recently been diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease which is a topic way too controversial and extensive for this forum but I very much believe that this is the cause for my low hormones because that is one of the most common and consistent problems caused by chronic Lyme disease. My naturopath recently recommended that I get on HRT because my last blood work done 4 mos. ago showed a total t of only 220 and again extremely low free testosterone. My estradiol was less than 5 also. My thyroid and adrenal are also on the low end of the so-called normal range. It is believed that by bringing hormones especially testosterone back into a good range it helps the body to combat the lyme. For this reason and because I thinks that it has a large part to do with me feeling horrible and losing muscle and all the symptoms I have fit and because my trusted naturopath is recommending TRT Im doing it. I live in Puerto Rico and have been unable to get the two doctors I've seen to prescribe me so I went underground and just started pinning 1 week ago. I front loaded 600 milligrams then did another 600 milligrams one week later which was yesterday and then I plan on doing 300 milligrams a week for maybe 10 weeks and then just a TRT dose of maybe 150mg/wk ish. That's where I stand now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated and I apologize very much for the long thread
