Bronchitis again?

[Guest guest]

This is the 4th time I have come down with it this winter. My

immune system must be very low is the anything I would take to build

it up. When I get these infections it plays hell on my testosterone

levels. I am still using indolplex with DIM but I know my E2

levels are up very high so much that we stopped the 100 mg. shot

every week until we see what my blood test shows next Wed. I

started breaking out in a rash on the back of my calf's and my

nipples are so sore I can't ware a shirt. So what the hell now if

I don't get the shot my joints and muscles get so sore I can't

walk. Why is it that the most you can take on Testim is 10 grams.

My Dr. will not let me do just shots he said it would take to much

to keep my levels over 800 and the E2 would be a bigger problem. I

have taken a 1/4 arimidex almost everyday in the last 2 weeks on top

of the indolplex my Dr. said you can take both at the same time.

Something about Arimidex blocks E2 and indolplex with DIM converts

it so you can get rid if it easer. I can't take more the one

Indolplex taking 2 a day gives me a bad headache I asked about

trying Hcg and he told me long term us of Hcg is bad for the

pituitary gland and can cause thyroid and adrenal problems. He has

two men that are Secondary and had to stop giving them Hcg because

of these problems. What a life up down up down.

Phil,

Sorry to hear about the bronchitis again. I know how the frustration

can feel. My doc feels my CFS symptoms are caused by a chronic viral

infection that they don't know how to test for yet. He is a professor

at a very prestigious medical school and teaching hospital, so I trust

his judgement on that. But I know how you feel - just when I start to

think maybe I've beaten this thing and have a few good days or weeks,

the viral symptoms come back.

The HCG causing harm is new info for me. Since I'm considering asking

to add it to my mix soon, any additional info your doc has on this

would be great, for both myself and others, I'm sure.

If you are primary, would HCG help you much anyway?

Thanks,

Mark
