Thank you for all of this great and very detailed information. I am not diabetic. I was diagnosed as having the metabolic syndrome 20+ years ago - but all of my numbers and lab values have been very well managed. HbA1c = 5.4 Hasn't moved in 10 years.Just a quick question. Are you a type one or type 2 diabetic? What do you do to control your insulin levels?
My doctor's "theory" is that if could raise my T-levels into the normal range ... I would have an even better chance of controlling the insulin resistance that comes with the metabolic syndrome.
I'm just wrestling with whether it's worth the risk. The Jatenzo PI is daunting and scary!
Seems like I might upset the apple cart and all that's working really well ... just to SEE if I can get any benefit from higher T-levels with Jatenzo. But, really can't decide if it's worth the risk. I mean, if you have to carefully watch BP, hemoglobin, hematocrit, iron levels, etc ... Seems like a lot of downside risk for an unknown "potentially" positive outcome.
Very confused.
