I never know how to start a thread, and I'm not sure what I am looking for with this post, but I am having a lot of side effects from my 'trt'. Basically, I gained a massive amount of weight over the past 3 years, and I put off addressing it for financial reasons/decisions. But in 2018 I finally got health insurance, and start to address my health issues. I found out I had a pituitary tumor, this leads to me to my blood work and found out my test was absolutely in the dumpster 124 I believe was the number, I hounded them over the phone so I don't have the number in my visual memory. Also, my thyroid numbers were low as well. Also found out I had some serious sinus issues (I hadn't been able to breathe through my nose for about 6 years). So I got my sinus issues resolved with surgery, it was a mess, but I breathe so much better it was a good thing to have done. Now I am waiting to recover financially as it cost 3x what I was told it would due to complications. In the meantime, where I live I was having a hard time finding a doctor to prescribe me my trt. I found one I liked at a rejuvenation clinic, but they didn't take insurance atm. So I decided to start my trt myself. I used test and tren in my twenties, so I was comfortable with the pinning and purchasing process.
So with the back story out of the way, if it matters. It seems like it should be obvious, but I get tunnel vision, that this time using test for trt is drastically different for my than when I was using it to perform well and look good. Some side effects I am having are: muscle cramping, joins feel swollen, and my sex drive is crazy my sexual urges are crazy high but I can't get a decent hard-on, I have a constant headache like my blood pressure is high but when I the times checked it's not, this may sound weird but I also feel like I've lost flexibility in my muscles.
I am having other side effects but they are common ones I expected. I am on my 4th week of TRT and will have blood work done in 2 weeks. I am just wondering if these are things others have experienced, or if you guys think they are imbalances somewhere, I would not be surprised if they were, I am quite overweight at the moment. Please don't take this as be complain, I am having great results and my life has improved massively since starting, I just was hoping to get the thought of the experienced people I know are here.
I am taking 250 E per week. I have not started any thyroid treatment, and I am thinking that may resolve some of my issues, but I have not taken it before and am not completely comfortable taking it without doctor supervision.
