Pulled another zero and first time testosterone reading

I know it is expected while on HT, but it is still nice to say it .. undetectable again .. third time this year. I also had my testosterone checked for the first time. It is 26. Uro PA would like to see it lower but given an undetectable PSA we will stay the course. My wife was with me and she just about fell out of her chair when he said he would like it lower.   I am switching to a 6 month Lupron injection at the end of the month .. might as well get as much as I can done in 2011 since I am way past my deductible for the year. Next year we are switching to a high deductible/HSA program so the next Lupron shot in 2012 is out of my pocket .. but pre-tax.

SC,

Good numbers - it appears to me.

Be vigilant about how you use the HSA - remember you have to have contributed before you can spend (not like the FSA where you could get ahead of it during the year). I've had co-workers mess that up and overspend the card, causing overdraft fees.

I just put the card away, and pay out of pocket, keep the receipts, and then pay it back from the account as a single withdrawal at the end of the year. Be sure and look for an account with minimal fees and some interest. There are some that are a good deal, others that just hold your money and charge fees.

They manage to move all the record-keeping to you with an HSA.

Southern: Your aggressive approach is working, hang in there on the HT. Undetectable is great, keep the numbers coming. We can beat this stuff if we are the aggressors and kick the $%*& out of it.
Good luck
