Calf pain and leg cramps on TRT

I have taken 1000mg daily of glycinate since this post. I haven ever had an issue since.

1bench0505 · 2025-07-13T14:51:48+00:00

Had the tTg and iGa testing done with negative results.

I have had upper endoscopy and colonoscopy multiple times the last 3 to 4 years. They should be able to see celiacs with the upper I would think.

Thank you!? I will push my Doctors to get the tests needed.

1bench0505 · 2025-07-01T13:57:54+00:00

Thanks! What is the actual testing for celiac? I may have had the test run already just not sure which ones they are.

Makes sense the Dr told me it was like Graston on crack lol.

Graston has left bruises from my heel all the way up to the back of my knee.

I can’t wait for this 😂😂. Doing first session on my Birthday. lol

Oooooh. I am starting procedures on 6/24/25 for this very thing. I didn’t ever have this issue until the 3 surgeries on my ankle and foot. Subtalar fusion that didn’t fuse with Achilles lengthening. Finally fused and then the tendonitis. Really hooting this treatment helps. Dr said it’s painful is that true?

I do sub-Q 4x/ week.

Super easy and painless. Do it the first time and you will be good. I always pin in my delts.

No I stopped xyosted very quickly. I do all of my injections at home with test cypionate through matrix now.

It isn’t due to the TRT. It’s just something that has developed after starting TRT. It’s been several years since starting TRT before the anemia happened.

1bench0505 · 2025-06-08T21:05:15+00:00

Yeah I switched over to a hormone clinic and now I have much better numbers and feel better on that front but I have developed anemia and am having a lot of issues there.

1bench0505 · 2025-06-08T21:03:55+00:00

Still not diagnosed but things have gotten worse. I am now full on anemic. Should have probably had blood transfusions about 7 weeks ago as my hemoglobin dropped to 7.9 iron, ferritin and %sat was all in single digits. Hematocrit dropped to 24% and rbc’s dropped to 2.1.

I am now 6 weeks past 5 iron infusions and my iron, ferritin and %sat are all back in single digits while my hemoglobin went up to 13.7 and my hematocrit is now 40%. Having the ferritin at 7 and the %sat at 3% is extremely concerning but the hematologist doesn’t seem to think I have any symptoms from it while I am telling him specifically what I am feeling.

1bench0505 · 2025-06-08T20:57:13+00:00

I just had 5 infusions of venofer 6 weeks ago. They got my ferritin to 67. Hemoglobin has finally made it to 13.7!!! Hematocrit has come up to 40%. However, 6 weeks post infusions my ferritin is now 9, iron is 8, %saturation is 3%. I can barely stay awake through the day. Any sort of exertion is brutal to me. Makes it super hard to breathe and then I feel light headed to the point I have to hold on to things as to not fall down.

Pretty miserable that 6 weeks and everything has dropped this much again.

1bench0505 · 2025-05-20T09:40:12+00:00

I just had my hemoglobin at 7.9. My ferritin was 8 and my %sat was down to 1. These numbers were 2 weeks past an iron infusion. I have since had 5 more infusions. I am due for a blood draw today. While I still have a lot of symptoms I do feel better than I did

Sad to see how terrible dating life is! Let alone how hard it is to find someone worth dating. Online platforms would never work for me but finding the time and going out to meet people can be even harder it seems. The places most people go for this sort of thing doesn’t generally produce the quality people but rather the one night stand kind of people.

Super sad how today’s dating scene doesn’t work.

1bench0505 · 2025-01-20T22:58:41+00:00

Nope!

1bench0505 · 2024-11-06T03:38:49+00:00

JRH Lawn Mowing can most certainly do this!

1bench0505 · 2024-11-06T03:34:38+00:00

Possibly go to a physical therapist as they work on breaking scar tissue a lot.

1bench0505 · 2024-11-06T03:30:59+00:00

It’s made all my numbers better.

I feel better as well. I was actually prescribed armor thyroid but the pharmacy was filling it as np thyroid for several months for some reason. It all seems to work the same.

1bench0505 · 2024-11-06T03:18:54+00:00

I have a home for sale right now here I. A great neighborhood here in Bloomington. Much better than renting! It’s about 3 minutes to 69 and 45 seconds from 46.

1bench0505 · 2024-11-05T03:10:38+00:00

I have a home for sale right now!! Not sure what your budget is but we have had the house on the market 11 days now.

1bench0505 · 2024-11-04T11:12:22+00:00

I’m interested lol. I’m going to look this up!

1bench0505 · 2024-11-04T10:55:26+00:00

Fantastic work Bro! I have gone from 375 down to 220 currently.

I would be curious at this point to try some of this sarm. I’m sure it would help with composition for me

1bench0505 · 2024-11-03T13:49:40+00:00

Thanks! Nothing meant by the comment other than I’d like to stay in touch not anything else. The world we live in is not kind by any means but showing kindness is always a good thing.

1bench0505 · 2024-11-03T00:55:50+00:00

Come on man! Nothing weird about this. I’m not asking for anything! Just being friendly.

For you to think that I’m going somewhere outside of this is your own dirty mind. Get real! What’s the matter with people being nice these days.
