Re: Male menopause affects 2million Brits but 'can be safely cured

@ignitionnet

Hi there

my hubby's on the gel, which is a pain in the bum to say the least, he just started takin the oestrogen blocker as he developed boobs, and yes i was gettin jealous as his were gettin bigger than mine lol Hes a chef and they were very prominent through his chef whites, been infomed that although the meds can stop the boobs from growing anymore, they cant reduce them so bein referred to a plastic surgeon for reduction.

Our PCT dont do the test injections, so its either patches or the gel, were fighting this at the moment, hes 45 and been told hes not even got the levels of an oldie, there almost not on the scale. (free test is 0.102)

hes gone from the most gentle man to the incrediable hulk at times, and memory loss jeeze, my clients are not as bad as him (am a older persons social worker!!), hes lost muscle tone from his arm and legs but now has a barrel like stomach, and he says he feels like hes got the flu all the time.

Hes been told he cant drive due to the side effects of the oestrogen tablets due to the high dosage he needs to block this, oh it just gets worse and worse.

Just waitin on MRI to see is there is a tumor on the pit gland as his body is not responding to the testosterone at all, he cant maintain any levels even using the gel, (he has to use it 3 times a day to maintain a level of 1.6 and thats still way to low.

on another point, 12 weeks wait for an MRI scan, i wont say wat i want to as the swear filter will ban me lol, but we have no paid for this private and he goes for it on Thursday of this week!!!!

But suppose it can only get better hey lol

ps. yes hes got the prostate swelling, so now he cant pee to good, and as for his marital rights, jeeze wat are they lol, just one thing after another
