Testosterone. Strength. Period.
 
The strength I recovered over the past few yrs impresses my doctors. Never could've done it without testosterone at borderline high levels. Fatigue gets mentioned often here and i'm telling you it works better then almost everything. I'll be starting/trying Ampyra soon and if it does what it says (help transmit impulses through damaged nerves) i'll tell ya's i'm going to be strong by summer's end.

Testosterone helps the body metabolize protein (by what ive read) and enables you to build muscle ONLY if you can/do the work. Won't do squat if you just sit on couch all day. I kept my word with Dr and told him i'll push my bod often as I can. It's done wonders. Last check my level was 1,300 which is a tad high for males I know but hey..it works. PSA is 1.1 Age 40.

Testosterone Cypionate 100mg .5 cc/ml every 7-8 days. 200mg/cc/ml. Women maybe 1/5 of that.
Cypionate is the "ester" that sets the half life at 7-8 days.
I had to study bodybuilding sites yrs ago to educate myself and thank god they existed. If no insurance 10mL bottle is $100. 4+ months worth.

I want all of you that can still move to get your total testosterone level checked and post it here.

Forgot to mention libido is effected by testosterone levels. It's one of the things that make teenagers "teenagers".

More importantly, my math skills faded to where I had to think longer then I should on simple equations in my head. It came back.

Dude!
 
I've used test propionate and nandrolone (deca durabolin). I paid much bigger bucks for my juice, and it was underground to boot!

Are you doing 6-8 week cycles, or are you just doing it ongoing? I'm 42 myself, and even though my test levels are low-normal, the best my doc will do are the lame patches.

Did you see an endocrinologist or your GP?

Been inj. it every week for past 3 years. My level was barely 300 in my late 30's and at one point 280. I'm not a bodybuilder. I have MS and has helped me very much where I dont have nerve damage. My Dr gave me the gel at first. Gel was $350/month. Inj. is $30. 30x36=$1,080. 350x36=$12,600

I need to update this and say i'm going down to 80mg/week since I found out today I'm approved for Ampyra! 100mg/week was a bit much anyway. I know my Dr was nervous over cancer, prostate ect but it helped me. Besides, look at the risk of taking Tysabri.
