Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 Hi Mick, You should be seeing at least increased libido. So IMO all three symptoms continue to be influenced by low T. I think 1. You have not yet reached a therapeutic T level (almost regardless of where the bloodwork is). -And/or- 2. Your free T level is still low. It hasn't not caught up with your increased total T. -And/or- 3. Estradiol (E2) is somehow too high or out of proportion with T. (IMO unlikely, unless you went through a short period of recovery) Can you let us know: 1. The dose per injection 2. Type of T (T-enthanate, T-Cypionate or brand name) 3. T level (and any other related test results) (A) Before you started injections and ( after the first three injections, where you had a 25% increase. There may be other things going on, but let's start with the above. Bruce > Six injections over 13 weeks and still no resolution to CFS, no > spontanious erects or any libido.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 I don't remember how much you are taking but doing shots every other week puts you into the ups and downs feeling good after the shot and by the 8 day feeling down until the next one. You should be doing a shot a week like 100 to 150 mgs. Doing what you are now will driver up you E2 Estradiol I hope you have it checked.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 Hi Treatament is being done through my GP as an endo said nothing could be done. All other hormones are in the normal range. I am on sustanon100, 1ml every 2 weeks after an absence of treatment for 25 years. As a 12 year old treated with oxandrolone after being made crytorchid primed with FSH saising levels from .2 to 1.8.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 Sustanon is good stuff, should get your T levels up at some point, it may just take more or take longer. Still with CFS, Thyroid and Adrenal play a large part in that. What are your " normal " levels with range for TSH, DHEA-S, igf-1, Prolatin and DHT? Adding in HCG and or Clomid, if you have low LH might help with libido. L-arginine is supposed to work for erections. > > Six injections over 13 weeks and still no resolution to CFS, no > > spontanious erects or any libido.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2004 Report Share Posted October 2, 2004 I'll check those with the GP to. I certainly know I was treated with L-arginine when I was injected into an insulin tolerance test when 10. My records show that L-arginine was used. Certainly didnt have any erection or libido problems then. In fact it was all abit strange, an amazinzing libido at 10 Mick theta_2k <pohare@...> wrote: Sustanon is good stuff, should get your T levels up at some point, it may just take more or take longer.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Sue, If her urinary tract infection was as painful as the one I had, she'd be taking anything offered! . . . It's best to get the infection under control, then work on the after effects. Patty can probably tell you more. I think she took a gallon of water to the bathroom, sat on the pot and just kept going until she was clear. Will this help? I don't know. I'm traveling right now . . . just jumped on the computer at the hotel . . . If you don't hear from me often, know that I'll be back soon.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Cranberry pills often help, take about 5-6 to start, then every hour take 2-3 more the first day. Drink a ton of water. Avoid antibiotics if you can.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Beth I agree as I used to have them a lot in the past and nothing worked - I have not had one in years, though. My sister had a massive one recently and went to the heathfood store and I don't know what they gave her but it was cured pretty fast. When I used to get them badly I would take the antibiotics which would start a yeast infection... when I treated that the yeast cream started another bladder infection... I went on this horrible circle for 6 months. It was awful. I would say be careful with the antibiotics if you get a yeast infection...if you use the creams keep things "very clean" in the area and avoid smearing it around as it may spark another UTI. Drink a ton of water and cranberry juice... maybe a local healthfood store may have options too. thanks shari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 water water and more water; i think water is the strongest healer; flush those toxins out; i know it may be something more serious, as someone mentioned, maybe stones, but still a flush of water will minimize complications if it is something more serious than a simple infection...

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 - Actually, I have had several bladder infections when I was younger that I had bloody urine. They are extremely painful and yes, she should be on an antibiotic. If she is doing measures to control her candida she should be ok. Sometimes you just need antibiotics in my opinion. There are many many people on antibiotic therapy for autoimmune disease and they treat possible candida symptoms at the same time and do just fine. Alot of them do all kinds of detox and do just fine on the antibiotics also. Of course, I would recommend the least complicated one that will do the job. Good luck to your friend --I hope she feels better soon! Hugs kathy -- In , dawn A <daldre@y...> wrote: > Sue, > It could be kidney stones. Was that ruled out?

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Hi, If the hemoglobin is too high it may not be due to an overdose of T. The amount of T per day was not disclosed. A typical dosage of about 12.5mg/day for a man 220 pounds should not give any trouble but never the less in my case it is tested in my case every 4 months when I return for more pellets. The doctor should not have overdosed the patient with T and should have been aware of the hemogloving level before the last set of pellets. Several things need to be cleared up here as this is out of the ordinary. It is relatively easy to donate some blood to fix the problem compared to digging out pellets. Not good advice seems to me. ernestnolan > > > > Hello everbody, > > > > I am after some help in how can i rehydrate myself, i have tried > > drinking lemonade, and electrolytes, i am drinking around 7-8 litres > of > > fluid a day, only peeing 2-3 times a day.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Hi, It is not the form of Testosterone therapy but the dosage being too high. The doctor may have overdosed the patient but it is not the fault of the form of T pellets. This is a big mistake by the doctor not the pellets. ernestnolan > Hello everbody, > > I am after some help in how can i rehydrate myself, i have tried > drinking lemonade, and electrolytes, i am drinking around 7-8 litres of > fluid a day, only peeing 2-3 times a day.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Hi, The pellet is a crystaline form of testosterone identical chemically to the T in the body and will not cause a rejection by the body. ernestnolan > > > > Hello everbody, > > > > I am after some help in how can i rehydrate myself, i have tried > > drinking lemonade, and electrolytes, i am drinking around 7-8 > litres of > > fluid a day, only peeing 2-3 times a day.

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 They did not work for me and cost me an arm and a leg. Ernest has a good Dr. yet he does not understand 90% of the sick men here can't afford to fly out to see his Dr. And there are other men he has talked to that tried them and they did not work. The last guy had them put in the right amount and and nothing Ernest told him he never heard of this. Ernest how many men do you know on pellets. Insurance will not pay for it the Dr.'s that do it in my state are crooks and charge you a ton of money for not enough pellets. Only to charge you more money when you go back not feeling good. Name one Dr. other then yours that does this like your Dr. does. If I could afford it I would see your Dr. but I am not rich. It just makes no since to me to push this when one can't afford it.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 Hi, I believe you have explained that very well. I missed the file so will go back and look for it. I don't know what you mean by a falloff. Could you explain that more clearly. I have heard from the two pellet doctors I knew who have been very close to Bartor Phamacal for decades in Rye NY that several doctors have had trouble because they do not learn how to insert them correctly using a torcar surgical tool. These doctors have tried to use a scalpel and make an inscision and stuff up to 20 pellets under the skin with tweezers. The stitches do not hold under the pressure and are slow to heal. Some have become infected with all the fooling around getting them in and stitching. The trocar inserts the pellets several inches from the inscision made you the chisel shaped tool and rarely is there any problem of any type. Some times the pellets seem to run out too soon in some people but usually 4 months between pellets is good for most. Special trocar training takes time and money and if you don't offer pellets to your patients you would rather get them to use what you offer. I am trying to let people be aware there is a form or TRT therapy that is trouble free for the patient and works very well for most people. I get no money to push pellets and the compounding pharmacies do not advertise much as there is no much profit in pellets that allows that expense. It is not that way for the big pharmaceutical companies providing hormone therapy products of all kinds that many times do not work very well. ernstnolan > >> Hello everbody, > >> > >> I am after some help in how can i rehydrate myself, i have tried > >> drinking lemonade, and electrolytes, i am drinking around 7-8 > >litres of > >> fluid a day, only peeing 2-3 times a day.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2005 Report Share Posted November 22, 2005 By " falloff " , he was basically saying that when you put X number of pellets in, initially the patient will get a big surge ( " climbing the walls " I think he said), and then as the pellets wear down, the levels will go too low. > Re: any ideas > > >Hi, > >I believe you have explained that very well.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Hi, Received pellets 3 times a year since 1991. After 42 times I have never had a surge of any kind. That should be a statisically significant sample. I have had an awareness that my pellets are getting down some as my energy level begins to drop and stamina isn't as it was. Mental agility is not upset. ernestnolan > >> >> Hello everbody, > >> >> > >> >> I am after some help in how can i rehydrate myself, i have tried > >> >> drinking lemonade, and electrolytes, i am drinking around 7-8 > >> >litres of > >> >> fluid a day, only peeing 2-3 times a day.
