How is the Arimidex working out for you? Have you visited that doctor that you had intended to?

Just started Arimidex today. I'm gonna do 1mg a day, 3x a week. I'll keep you posted.

I see Dr. Shippen in November. I'll keep you posted on that.

Let me know how things work out with that Doctor in Connecticut if you plan on seeing her.

1mg a WEEK? isnt that alot? I just ordered some and i was under the impression that I should take like half a pill only twice a week. You are going to take 3mg a week, i dont even think crazy *** bodybuilders use that much, this sh*t is powerful.

Hey

Is the general concensus that you will be able to quit these anit-aromotuse (bad spelling) drugs once things are back in check?...or have to continue with them indefinitly?

from what ive read, the only folks that have gotten success from it have literally blasted themselves with it, like 1mg a day for whatever amount of time, dont remember who sent me info about it, and on this mailing list someone used androderm and had good effects, wonder if thats the same as androgel..

I was using both Arimidex and Androderm for a few days. Now I'm back to using just Arimidex. My erections were almost back to normal, although my libido was still low. I've decided to stop the Androderm for now because I want to get my own testosterone levels up. I don't want to rely on Androderm.

I'm also now using Tribestan.

Telogen, the Doctor in Connecticut is some kind of Arimidex expert. Drinkrum can tell you more about her. I'll be seeing this guy Dr. Eugene Shippen in Reading, PA in early November.

I am taking a half a pill of Armidex 3 times a week. I hope that this is enough to have an effect. I cant afford to go through this stuff like water, it cost me 185 dollars for 28 pills.

How much are you guys paying/.

You're using enough. Just get your estrogen levels checked in a few weeks to make certain. Are you still on finasteride?

Ah, ok. Well, you're relatively lucky, because I'm sure if you stopped finasteride your estrogen levels would likely normalize on their own.

Well, I'm off Androderm now. Things are back to where they were before. I couldn't get it up if I used a crane. I can't even eat spaghetti anymore because it reminds me of my genitals. I'd have more luck trying to bend a spoon with my mind than I would getting an erection.

You cant get wood at all? even if you help it?

Nope.

Once again, a big heart-felt thank you to Merck for ruining my life.

I think I'm going to find some of these Merck people and castrate them. See how they like it.

sh*t thats awful man.

Lets think about this logically for a minute. Androderm is going to give you a big boost in testosterone from an external source. The arimidex is going to be a VERY slow process which will block aromatization - thus causing a very gradual rise in test and a drop in estrogen. You suddenly stop the androderm of course you are going to hit a big bottom because external test will further shutdown your endogenous test. Your testicles are going to get lazy when your endocrine system senses all that test.

I would recommend going back on the androderm and very slowly tapering off. This will get your sex life back and allow your body to slowly catch up as you taper off. and of course stay on the arimidex

No I'm not a doctor but I work in the medical field. I hope this works.

good luck.
