What kind of levels did you need before you recieved test therapy? I just got my test back and was below the norm on my test levels not a lot. IE The norm range was 241-825 and I was 237. However the doc didn't call me and when I called, the nurse said the doc checked it and everything was fine. Makes me think no free test. What did you guys have for symptoms? I had very little interest in sex like 2 a week and not real hard erections-but I was on ephedra too. It had been 6 months since my last cycle when I got checked.

If you take those #'s to a different doc, you could probably get a script. A clinic that specializes in such things would definitely give you a script on that. I think my total was in the mid 300's, but free was only like 6 (not sure on the range, but something like 8-25 or so), and my normal doc put me on test cyp (but only 200mg eow, which sucked).

Damn mid 300's and he said I was fine with 237. You don't think a diff doc would make me do another test? Cause right now I am pretty sure I would fail LOL. 800mg pw is a little on the high side.

I think my diagnosis was mostly on my free test levels... also, the complaints (no sex drive, lack of energy, lack of concentration, loss of muscle mass) probably played a big part

MyT and freeT levels were in the normal range fo all that is worth, my T was in the upper 300's. I went to a urologist and just by hearing my symptoms he prescribed T therapy.

Rugbythug, check out Dr. John "Swale" at allthingsmale.com. He can help you with your test levels. He is great and easy to work with. If you don't know who he is, check out some of his posts at CEM.

My insurance is a ppo so I think I need to use there doctors. That really limits what I can do. I am worried that they will want another test. Especially if I go in there all jacked up.
