COMMENTS--

1. LIBIDO THROUGH ROOF

2. ERECTIONS PRETTY GOOD BUT NOT GREAT-- USE GENERIC VIAGRA OR Levitra

3. strength = good but has been better

4. stamina = good, can do 1 hr of hard cardio, 5 days/week

5.  apply androgel to shoulders and back always post shower-- extra goes on

thighs up to penis and the shrinking " boys "

6. no HCG-- yet but plan on taking it

7. thoughts on using HCG with these numbers  if I was diagnosed as a primary??? 

8. being using androgel for 4 years-- at various doses-- up to 10 grams/day

which pushed total test = 1800

9. very obvious to me Androgel is more effective with some of us than others--

some are just good absorbers I think????

Any reason to increase dose to 7.5 g/day??

thoughts/comments welcome
