Quick update while I'm here. It's been 4 weeks since my orchi, and at about the two week point I was in a major funk. I was having a lot of suicidal thoughts and just a lot of thoughts that I had really fucked up my whole life. I felt that I was basically totally on my own in dealing with the mess that I had created for myself. Then a few positive things happened. My scrotal infection finally went away after two and a half weeks of antibiotics and I had a really good discussion with my doctor about the various issues I was still dealing with.
I have to cut this short, I'll try to finish my update tomorrow.
So, I brought up the idea of taking Clomid with my urologist and she had a lot of positive things to say about Clomid but wasn't sure how effective it would be for me given the state of my right testicle ( I only had the left one removed). She also gave me the option of going on T. I decided to give Clomid a try and after a week of being on it I'm already feeling much better. My hot flashes have moderated, my energy level has increased and I'm in a much better mood. My right testicle, which has been hard and atrophied for almost two years, is already starting to feel a little bit more like it did before the cacl.
My hope is to return to the "Eunuch lite" state that I was at before I injected the 3 cc's into my left testicle (low libido but no hot flashes).
