my symptoms of high E2

[Guest guest]

I am one of those people in the group who can't get my doctor to test my E2. He

just says it is not needed. I disagree with him but at the same time try to not

make him upset because it took me a long time to find a doctor in my area who

would test my T, lipids, adrenals, etc. Through an MRI and other test, he did

find I had low T and started me on TRT over 2 years ago. I am 40 yrs. of age

and went for 10 years wondering what in the world was wrong with me!

Along the way, I have found out from this helpful group and from personal

experience, that there are many symptoms from low or high E2. For me, I can

tell when my E2 goes high from the itchy feeling I get on my chest area and

armpit area. I also get lumps or cysts under the skin on my chest. They are

not like zits or pimples. They are under the skin and hard. They disappear

after several days.

For over a year I have been using over-the-counter ZMA and DIM, which I feel

like has helped me since my Dr. is not fully up on TRT. I just started arimidex

and am anxious to see the results. I am cutting the pill in 4 sections and

taking one section every 3 days, as I learned from this group.

Just thought I would share my symptoms of high E2.

Thanks again to Phil & others for their knowledge.
