Second blood test today

[monsoon]

Two weeks ago I had a blood test that showed my total test at 341. Doc wanted a second test to confirm. The nurse aid to come in first thing in the am when levels should be at their highest. But, I had to sit in the waiting room for thirty mins with levels dropping then the student messed up the draw so I had to do it a second time.
anxiously awaiting the results. I want to get as much as possible out of insurance before going to life me. Moneys tight.

Curious to see these results as compared to the previous

 

[monsoon]

No one is more curious than me. I don't know how much difference an hour or so earlier is going to make.

540. No need for treatment.

I would wait a month or so and do another retest to verify. With only 2 tests who is to say that the higher one is not the fluke?

 

[monsoon]

True. What is most annoying is that they didn't do the full panel even though that's what the second test was for. And no acknowledgement of the vit D and thyroid

I'm seriously considering giving it a go on my own though I'd much rather have the script

You could always go to a different doctor and manipulate your blood work if you're sure you want to be on TRT. If you don't need it I wouldn't go that route. I wish I still had that choice.

If I'm legit 540, I probably don't need it. I would feel better for the future though
