So bloodwork came back today with a note that total test and free test were not run because “no adequate sample provided.” Ugh. Will have to re-run.
E2 still at 99–same as it was four months ago, even though I’ve been running adex and DIM. No physical manifestations of high E2 though, perhaps because of my continued use of masteron prop? Ironic, because I was convinced I had crashed my E2 and intended to back off the adex and DIM this week to pump it back up! I think my body just loves elevated E2.
Three concerning values came up: AST at 106, ALT at 180 and HDL at 16 (though total cholesterol at only 132). Clearly, gear hit the HDL hard, but the liver enzyme values inexplicably are off the chart. Interested in @NeuroRN’s thoughts and anyone else who is knowledgeable about these values. My doc indicated that my ongoing sinus infection and the fact that I’ve had the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine may account for the enzyme values. Will retest a couple of weeks after getting the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine. Definitely not accounted for by alcohol consumption, as I have cut way back on that.
On the great side, PSA came in at 1.3, ALC at 4.5%, and hematocrit at 39.6%.
