@Lori Dee Thanks. I'm with you on the adjustments. As a matter of fact, that's why I disobeyed my doc and stayed on injections until I got my labs done. What good is being on injections for months, then stopping right before my blood test? As it stands now, I'm on 25 mg of spiro and plan to stay there. My T was suppressed and my E was too high, so I'll drop E to 2 mg 2x/week and (with doc's permission) and sit there until my next labs. If T is still suppressed and E is good, we'll discuss dropping spiro and waiting for the following labs to see if I need it.

Yeah, I'd like to drop spiro now since I'm already down to 25 mg (wanted to drop it for a long time and even tried once, but my T level shot up to over 200), but I don't want to upset the apple cart. It's been 4.5 long years of these small adjustments and tests. Annoying, since I've heard of others who get their meds dialed in within a few months and don't change anything for years.

I know the struggle. It took just over four years to get mine right. Now, I won't allow anyone to adjust them unless they can point to labs and say, "Here's why..."
