Yes, your dr might not want to run everything at first for two reasons
1. Some of those test would be run only if initial numbers came in bad. Example... total testosterone would be run first and then free and bound in a later blood test.
2. Most doctors have god complexes and don't like to be told what to do.
Is your doctor receptive to what you are doing?

Tweetthey dont encourage me to use but they know about it. I dont lie to them about what i do and how often i do it.

TweetThat's good. You can monitor your health.

I would suggest you ask your doc not to write AAS in your file and put sports supplements for his records. Just to be safe. You never know, it can come back to bite ya.
