Re: My many E2 results: Arimidex or not?

January 28, 2011

So what's new it all over the place for all men your not taking anything to keep

it in check and that test .18 nmol/L if very high it's at the top of the range

for a women we keep going over and over and over this.

Lab 1 .11 nmol/L is 110 pmol/L and is 31 pg/ml.

the lab at 0.08 nmol is 80 pmol/l and is about 22 pg/ml good.

69 pg/ml then having them do it over again much later I don't buy 40 or anything

the did over after you blood was sitting around in there lab.

All men on trt or off trt don't get the same E2 levels from test to test. Men

on TRT like myself taking arimidex will be close to the same number but we are

controlling it with Arimidex.

Estradiol is all around us in the food we eat the water we drink in the air we

breathe.

Ok. I know bottled water, plastic bottles, have E2 in them. I qill have to quit

buying those. I just started buying VOSS spring water in glass bottles over

here. I will stick to those, even if they cost a lil bit extra. I always mix my

one bottle of water with sea salt, and I will do it in the glass bottle from now

on.

E2 labs are interesting cause, in the first 10 years of Hypothyroidism treatment

with Synthetic T4 and T3, my doc back then (kind of a Hertoghe-like guy!) always

measyred E2 and so on. And I never looked at the results, til 2008 when I

started getting really sick. SO, looking at the old blood sample results from

2007 and down til 1997 when I first started treating Thyroid, I can see that

mostly E2 was fine, like midrange or whatever, but sometimes, it was in the top

of the range. It was never above it though. Maybe the changing E2 was really

affecting how I felt back then, like, sometimes I felt a lil bit worse than

other times, and maybe it was E2 all along. It sure is interesting to learn

about hormones!

Right now I just feel plain horrible. I will start taking " Rinexin " tablets and

the " Nasonex " nasal spray. Rinexin is forbidden in the States (I believe some

people died from using it) but I have used it before so I will try it now - It

will reduce swollenness inside the nose and sinuses. The " Nasonex " is a

corticosterois spray for the nose, which will do the same. So I hope I will

survive taking these two - I have been using them before. But not while I have

been on HC, and other hormones.

I will try to get in touch with Hertoghe on Monday or Tuesday, and ask him if

it's ok that I start taking Arimidex. He will probably say yes.

Right now my Total T is at 23.1 pmol/l (8.0 - 35.0 nmol/l) - I had that EXACT

same number wile I was NOT on TRT, but while on optimal thyroid, about 3 years

ago, before the stupid Endo's started weening me off all Thyroid meds. What does

that tell you, Phil?

I feel like.. If I wasn't taking TR, my E2 would've been fine. OR, maybe it's

DHEA that's the culprit in converting Testosteroner into E2????? Maybe I just

need to stop taking DHEA, and E2 will be fine?

I was on Nasonex for yrs until I found out I have low Cortisol levels. Every

winter I would be sick as a dog with sines infections and Bronchitics. Going on

HC meds I don't have them problems anymore.

Don't buy water in Plastic bottles get a water filter use it and put your water

in a glass or stainless steel canteen. I use Brita for this.

http://www.brita.com/?locale=us & gclid=CJ6a0orl36YCFVln5QodCTD_0w

yes as you see in your old labs E2 goes all over the place.

I got my canteen here.

I stopped drinking from plastic bottles yesterday. I bought a glass bottle of

VOSS water (as I live in Norway it's not so expensive as it is in the US!) and

fill that with clean tap water (we don't need to rinse it, it's amazingly clean,

like from a spring!) and add sea salt to it.

With so many things removed from my diet, it's weird how I live on! I only

eat meat and sald now, plus drink water. No fruit cause I am worried about

getting diabetes. No sugar. No carbs. Wow. My diet is super-boring!

I wonder about E2 and Arimidex.

I'd wonder if your elevated estraidol is from the DHEA.

You may wish to consider DHEA cream as it doesn't seem to go to estradiol

like the tablets do (including sublingual). My experience concurs with that

as long as I apply the DHEA to areas that have muscle and avoid thin skin.

Now that is nuts not to eat fruit thinking it will give you diabetes. You need

to eat from all the foods groups unless your told not to by your Dr.

You can avoid some but it will always be around in the air you breath and food

you eat no matter what. One can not live in a glass bubble unfortunately. Just

make things simple not like a damn science experiment..

Eating No carbs is also very very bad for you. My buddy did the atkins diet

with no carbs and yes his body did loose weight but it was in starvation mode.

When he began to eat healthy again his body saw the carbs and added double the

weight he had before. Since his body was " starving " for so long his body put on

extra fat thinking it may starve again.

Eat your carbs man! As long as they are good carbs from whole grains they are

good for your brain, body and probably hormones! Plus if you are worried about

diabetes then eat your fruit! The natural levels of sugar in fruit is likely a

lot better for you than the processed sugar from snacky foods.

if a person body can not handle the oxidative stress from <30 grams of carbs a

day then they are opening the door to prediabetes, other hormone issues, thyroid

issues. I have seen it happen many times to few freinds of mine.

My problem is today rising insulin in serum. I had it in my teens before I got

into T4-treatment and working out, and while it went away back then, and stayed

good for 10 years, it's back now... :-(

Â

I am super-worried about carbs now. I try to avoid fruits. I never touch sugar

anymore. I try to walk at least 1 hr daily.
