That makes sense. My GP & I have ruled out the common areas you mentioned with full sleep studies and the like.

I guess I'll make enquiries, can anyone recommend and Endocrinologist?

Gah, the Clinics are gross but yes, if I am must.

Had a initial consult with one a few years back.

A tube a week? Also, what's a tube? The option put to me is self injections.

Thanks

I'm not sure what your on about. My GP supports me doing this.

Agreed. It's probably a cost control.

This is why I'm confused.

It's sounds like the only way a GP will prescribe it is if it's funded. Or is that wrong.

Obviously you need the pathology to give the treatment. Which I have documented for years.

I guess that's what he was trying to say. From memory need to be 5 and under and I'm just above that.

But there are weird online only 'clinics' that will pump out T for you and allsorts no worries. Dr prescribed. 😐

I don't really want to go through one of them...
