Considering TRT? Do this first…
If you’re considering TRT to try to alleviate PFS symptoms, it’s highly recommended that you FIRST get a GOOD lymes disease test.
What does lyme have to do with PFS? Well, a lot of the PFS symptoms are exactly the same as lyme disease.
But you didn’t get bitten by a tick? That doesn’t mean you don’t have lyme. Lyme is very similar to syphilis. It is a sexually transmitted disease. If you had sex, or maybe even kissed someone with lyme, you may be able to contract it. You can also get lyme through mosquito bites too. Also, you could have gotten bit by a tick and not have known it. They’re very small. The size of a pencil head, and they emit a drug when the bite you that numbs the area, so you won’t feel it.
It’s not only lyme disease that ticks carry. They carry a host of other bacteria that will compound with lymes disease to make you much sicker.
So, why do you need to get tested for lyme before you start TRT? Well, taking any form of steroid if you have lyme disease is a VERY BAD idea. It reduces your immune system and allows the lyme disease to run rampant throughout your body. This will make your lyme disease MUCH worse. Also, if you start TRT and then get a test taken, you may get a false negative for the test because of a weakened immune system.
What did I mean by a GOOD lymes disease test? Well, lyme is notoriously difficult to test for. There are a lot of bad blood tests out there that will get you false negatives. You need to test with this, not just western blot:
