Hi Phil, it was immensely interesting to read through your thread. You surely went through rough times but you've seemed to conquer most of the issues. A real inspiration to others.
I must, however, agree with a term much used in this archive..."Your mileage will vary". I think we are at the opposite ends of the Eunuch scale.
You probably know that I am nullified and for almost 2 years I have been without T as it is too expensive. I did not really experience mood swings, stiff joints, osteoporoses (yet). I've been diagnosed a type 2 diabetic a few years before castration. I had borderline hypertension 15 years before castration.
I did, however, gained almost 45kg in weight. This caused some health issues (hypertension worsened a bit and a bit more difficult to keep sugar levels down). I was lethargic a lot and I lost some muscle mass...and those darned hot flushes was murder.
Other than this, mentally at least, I'm fine...no suicide thoughts, depression and mood swings.
I did start a low dose of T a few years back to help me loose weight. I went to the gym and 2.5 years later I have gained lots more muscle mass that I had before, and lost 25Kg of fat. I had more energy and do not sleep during the day. I am scheduled for a gastric by-pass surgery to enable me to bring me back to my normal weight, which should cure my diabetes and blood pressure.
One interesting thing though, after starting T, I get PMS. I inject 0.5 cc every Sunday morning and every Tuesday, I have PMS. I'm moody and want to bite peoples heads off. My boss knows to leave me alone on Tuesdays!

. The PMS only last for a few hours and I feel great the rest of the week.
So, I guess people reading your thread will get the full experience (worst case scenario) of becoming an Eunuch.
I also have a partner. He is gay and I am straight. We are two celibate brothers in Christ and have the same love for each other than you and Bubba, arguments and all!
Keep well and blessings, prosperity, health & good fortune to both of you.
P.S. I have scouted your city with Google Earth. I like Charlotte. Looks like a clean city.
