PROPECIAHELP: Persistent Finasteride Propecia Proscar side effects info & discussion forum

Haven't posted here in a while. Been too depressed. Out of nowhere I started having an awful toothache and the doctor can't see anything on the X-Ray. Might be a fractured tooth(these apparently don't show on X-Rays), as I believe I've been grinding my teeth in my sleep from the stress of all this. I'll probably need a root canal. Just the perfect cherry on top of all this.

I got my blood test results back. I don't plan to get anymore tests, and I'm giving up treating this. My problems aren't improving at all, regardless of anything I try. This will be my last post here.

The only reason I'm posting is so I don't feel like I completely wasted $200 getting tests. Maybe these will prove useful among the store of knowledge here eventually. I was surprised the E2 was so low.

Sample collected 8/19/2010 @ 10AM. 11 weeks after stopping fin.

Total Testosterone: 339.1 (175.0 - 781.0)
E2: 29.0 (20 - 75)
PSA: 0.67

Anyway, thanks for your support. Good luck to you all.

Looks normal. Sorry to hear about your tooth but dont go

Things look pretty in line. Its a process of elmination I guess with all of us. Very good chances things will improve with you in time. I'd still like to encourage you to go see one of the PFS docs and have as many labs as you can. I think improvement is going to take persistence for all of us.

I too hope you stick around. The forum can be a double edged sword I know. Support from some and valuable info on one hand but alot of depressing stories and clueless doctors on the other. I think all of us understand being pissed off and having no hope.

ps- Im also dealing with the cracked tooth thing but it was present before Fin.

Test is a bit lowish - skimpy blood test overall. where in the USA are you?
