A bit of an update

So 6 months ago my doc agreed to do the surgery and remove my testicles do to the extreme pain that has developed in both, I was under the impression that the pain was caused by lack of T or having taking androcur for over 2 years. I was actually glad to find out that the drug was not the cause, but its a genetic issue, (twin brother is having a similar issue).

To go ahead with the surgery I had to agree to stop taking the androcur for 3 months prior to surgery. No big deal. After 3 months they did some prelim tests and found that my T level was still low, and told me to wait another 3 months. In that time the pain has gone up a bit. They just did a blood test last week, my level is @ 43. Thats castrate level. So now they have put me on an estrogen blocker to see if my levels will go up.

I am glad to be on the estrogen blocker, maybe loose a litte weight or stop getting larger brest. But enough is enough this pain is rediculous, drugs dont help. And I dont want a higher T level anyway. Doctors just make it up as they go along.
