Estrogen Total Serum - (87 pg/mL) No range given plus I have no idea how I got

this one as well.

Blood was taken at 9AM and I was fasting.

Anyway that is it, and as I figured she says I need nothing done and released me

for now. (

Said the Cortisol was only mildly high and you need to be concerned mainly if it

is low.

The ferritin she said was not a concern either, and asked if I had arthritis.

Said inflammation can cause this, and I DO have a small amount of arthritis in

my overworked back, and joints.

I pointed out the estradiol and that it should be no higher than 30, and closer

to 20,......blank stare. I mentioned Arimidex, and no way was she going there.

Said to quit drinking beer if I drank it, which I do moderately.

Now my T is in range and she says I don't even need TRT,.......last time it was

209. I have a feeling my estradiol was sky high when that was taken but they

didn't test for it then. I am thinking it has dropped some and that is why my T

level is up some.

Have to see the Urologist in a week or so, and I guess I will try to get

somewhere with him. After that I can try my Cardiologist since she won't do

anything at all. Only option after that is the D.O in this area.

I knew my estradiol was going to be high,.....I just knew it.

Any input on these numbers will be greatly appreciated as usual folks.

I feel like I am in a void somewhere, and don't know which direction to turn.
