We think we have an answer to my current problem. Hormone treatments apparently triggered my natural system and my Testosterone climbed back towards normal.

They thought I had prostate cancer in 1999. I guess they lowered my Testosterone levels to keep from "feeding the cancer". I really don't remember how it happened but my Testosterone levels dropped into the high 100s to high 200s for ten years. I recently switched Urologists and he doubled the Androgel. In the past I might have hit the low end of normal with 10 grams a day, but this time my levels went up over 700 (on a scale of approx. 225 to 850).

Now about the skin problem. It is going away as my body adapts back to its natural state (?????). Almost totally cleared up the rash.

Did not mean to bore you, but hormones were something I would not have thought of. Go figure.
