Hi Mrs. D. Thanks so much. I am taking ESTRGN METHTEST 1.25/2.5MG TAB. I was taking premarin for a full hysterectomy I had back in 2000 and we just switched to this med a few weeks ago.

I do use opoids for pain. I have the option of utilizing up to 8 norco/day. The strength is 10/325 I believe. I also combine that with tramadol, if needed (up to 4/day). I've tried the extended release opiods but they make my heart race and as such I'm not able to take them. I am also taking nortriptyline, topamax and a slew of vitamins (including prescription strength vitamin D).

I should have asked how low my testosterone level was and will the next time I go in. But, I can tell a huge difference with my pain level and have to attribute it to the testosterone. And, it seems so weird that something like this can help so much with my pain levels.
