I notice most of you use privatelabs to get an idea of where your at. And mainly the female panel.
My question is do any of you just use your insurance and go through your doc and get a physical? I don't want my doc to see that I'm cruising and my levels are in the 800-900 range now instead of 250-300. He claimed I didn't need testosterone and I was perfectly normal. Will they see that I'm cruising though?I assume so considering it'll show in shut down.
Do you guys also add lipids and PSA to these panels. What all do you regular cruisers get checked is my main question and what's the best way to go about that?
I completely understand all your concerns and had the myself not long ago. I had to exam my life style and decided there is no way I will ever get off TRT. So I started with a new doctor (Osteopath or OD) got all the blood test then went into the meeting with her. My Thinking: She is my doctor and can't tell anyone about my condition and I want her to do the best job she can to keep me healthy. So the question came and I told her the truth and told her that I fell better then I did 8 years ago and I am not going to stop TRT. She gave me her opinion. Then said ok we need to get some base lines to go from stop taking test and steroids we will get another blood test and go from there. Her goal is for my free test to be around 900 and I told her I want to be at 1100 and run two 6 week blasts a year. I have peace now because my doctor knows what is going on and that can only help. Yes I use my insurance.
The Best Thing About TRT Is The Cycle Never Ends.
