bloodwork, excuse to add IGF-1?

ad

Reason is I would like to verify quality of Tairopin sample, have baseline established on a copay, then pay out of pocket to verify. Starting with low doses, I'll probably never get above 4iu a day. The idea is to use it to help recover from surgery, and keep my balls on a cycle.

I can't think of a reason to tell a Dr to add IGF-1 at this point in my life. Earlier I had plenty of excuses, I was 5'3" when I got my drivers license, about the year HGH was released to treat the condition. Now I'm 5'10+, my body took care of that eventually. 10 years ago I weighed 128 lbs, I corrected that with diet and exercise.

These are my numbers from Jan, going back in Friday for blood work and will have a couple of follow ups. I have more, but this is what is probably applicable.

Test 249 292-867
Test free 3.8 4.8-25
Sex Horm Bind Globulin 48 16-94
FSH 4.9 1.3-11.4
Prolactin 3.8 3.0-30
TSH 2.6 0.3-5.1

An MRI of pituitary does not show anything unusual.

Will be changing from Axiron to Test cyp for HRT, supplementing with Test E.

I didn't realize it was more reasonably priced than I had seen advertised on the web and what some others were paying. Not sure of exact cost but assured it wasn't too expensive.
I just asked to have it added on, "OK" was the answer. They didn't do the draw today, need to wait until I am off another med. Not counting on the Taitropin being legit.
