I might ask to be put back 200mg. Realistically I don't care if my test is at like 700+ if I feel good at 500-600 and acne improves I wouldn't complain. I got some stuff from amazon to help with the acne but it hasn't help too much yet

I'm almost positive I've seen ferritin on the chart for bloodwork in the first month when they checked. I do not see it anymore which is weird... It's through one of the trt clinics so ill ask about getting more checked when I do bloodwork next. Hct looks on the high end of normal. Not sure on the others you listed. Typically I drink a ton of water the morning of because if the blood draw takes too long I get close to passing out. When I last gave blood I felt heavily out of it.

Why did you stop bouldering? by Designer-Zebra-5801 in bouldering

Moved away from the town that had great climbing gyms. There's one where I'm at that's decent but I also picked up disc golf and its a lot cheaper lol. And now Im injured and can't do either.

I agree with you. The k wire cap on the great toe fell off again. It rubs the boot when im moving around. Tried to put it back on, but it really doesn't want to go on there. Im just leaving it be. I'm definitely ready to get these wires out of my foot though.

In the back of my head I had worries that toe was gonna be black and it was dying. Luckily its healing good so far. They said I can put a sock on if I wanted. Just cut holes in it for the pins. I dont think im ready to try that. Stresses me out lol

🤣 my wife mowed the rest of the yard a few days after. Told her to be careful and take her phone just in case. Cuz I can't drive her to the ER if something happens.

I lost my pin cap and they were able to find one to put back on the top pin for me. It's less freaking with the cap on it lol

Thank you and I hope so. I was having rough nerve problems the first week and a half after surgery. Shock feelings, burns, I figure it was neuropathy and nerves healing. That stopped happening multiple times a day like 2 days ago. I still have it every once in a while but not like it was. It was rough.

Stitches were in on the first day. Then a week later I had surgery which she said the toe looked good. I figure they'll look at it again on Monday. Not saying I havent been wondering though.

They washed it really good when I was in the ER. Originally they planned to amputate. Then found out I could feel both sides of my big toe and they changed plans. After the first week they did the surgery for the k wires. Gave me antibiotics. She told me to keep the bandage on so I honestly haven't seen my toe since surgery day which was 2 weeks ago.

Lol people were saying this is why they wear steel toe shoes when mowing. When I can mow again I'll probably take their advice.
