Hi new to the board so looking for some sound advice.
I will try and keep this as brief as possible.
Age 62, been inactive for 28 years due to severe judo accident, right shoulder and spine. After this happened decided to have left leg repaired from numerous moto cross accidents (the joys of youth) leg was broken and had an open wedge osteotomy and acl reconstruction.
18 months ago unable to raise both arms higher than waist height with terrible pain, saw the local physios all said I needed surgery but I knew I didn't. Went to one of the Olympic physio's told me I didn't need surgery just had to work at different exercise to rectify the problem. After several months he recommended that I join a gym "That's not happening kid" was my reply. Went home told the wife and I have now been a gym member for 12 months, absolutely hated it for 4 - 5 months, now in the acceptance frame of mind. I go 5 times a week and work as hard as I can.
I have not slept properly for years, severe mental confusion at times, no energy, no drive and no mojo. I had a dream about returning a book but I knew that I needed to read it, so I remembered the start of the title (resetting the ) then woke up. Searched for the title and there it was an old book with yellow pages just as in the dream, downloaded the book and it described my symptoms to a tee. Resetting the Clock by Elmer Cranton MD
Went to the local GP and told him my symptoms, his reply was are you depressed, I told him I wanted my testosterone checking which he did, these came back at 11.3 nmol/L (326 ng/dl) and he did nothing. Had bloods done privately and the results came back slightly lower, Spoke to one of the guys at the gym who recommended Test Isocaproate 300mg/ml. Started taking 120 mg a week for several weeks and only noticed a small improvement so upped it to 180mg a week and noticed more improvement after several months. One day I spilt some of the test so syringed it up, 150mg pinned this and a few hours later noticed a big improvement if you know what I mean and the wife was a happy bunny. So I was now taking 420mg a week for several months and one of the guys told me to run Masteron alongside it so I started taking 280mg a week for 3 months. Had my bloods done again and the test had risen to 93.3 nmol/L (2,691 ng/dl). Was advised at the gym that this was too high and told to reduce it so now back on 180 mg test a week and stopped the Masteron.
So my mental clarity has improved, sleep is marginally better and I have much more go about me plus I've found my mojo. But I want so much more. My strength has increased and I have regained some of the muscle of my former years, but I want more.
My Oestradiol has risen from 58.8 pmol/L (1,696.38) to 480 nmol/L (13,848) so considering Primobolan to counteract the Oestradiol. And a few other blood markers have risen.
So, I have no previous experience with these substances so I am looking for some sound advice on where to go from here, bearing in mind that I want so much more. I had kind of just accepted that this is what happens as you age but I now know that life doesn't have to be that way.
Thanks in advance, sorry for the long post and any recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
Best wishes Johnny
