I've normally been taking 75mg at night, but after being a bit wound up last night I took 100mg....OMG, slept 7 solid hours straight through.....love this drug!...

To me, that looks like GAS......I don't know anyone who drinks protein shakes and does not get gas from them....UC or not. and remember......"if you're using a blender to make your smoothies use the...
Cabbage? I've learned to stay away from most gassy foods like cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, etc. I used to juice cabbage but that meant having crazy-wicked-gasss :shocked: Plus, all that juicing is...

two years on SCD is a long run?[/quote] I was on SCD for about 2 years and did quite well. Personally, I just could not sustain it......plus the fact that my OCD was making me follow it to the T,...
Hard to tell, but perhaps so. I was also taking alot of prednisone at high doses for a while which may have brought T-levels down. Stress, I'm sure depletes testosterone as well....
Sorry for your loss.....I've been there too....
I reduce stress by exercising, smoking(doesn't go with the exercising, but it works...lol), watching some comedy shows for laughter and taking Trazodone nightly to help me sleep....
Hmmm....I've been taking Mesalamine for 16 years and was diagnosed with Hypogonadism (Low T) 5 yrs ago. I've been on Testosterone Injections since and it has helped SO MUCH...helped me maintain my...

True....I started with 25mgs at first and now take 50-75mgs depending on how tired I feel before bed. For me, it has worked great allowing much deeper sleep which makes me feel rested the following...
