Jde. Sure as shooting, The older a man gets, the weaker he becomes. Loss of muselmass(sp)extreem tiredness,some memory loss, weight gain, etc isn't a problem for some, but for others, it bears directly on Low testostorone(sp) I have had all the blood tests and all of the test shows I'm low(85) but psa great shape.The theropy (shots-Patces, salve) isn't a dog and pony show. Treatment may not work (needle)for some, but the patch just may. I was hesitant about starting the theropy because of the cancer risk,however living as I am, sure as hell isn't quite as exciting when one can't move about, No ENERGY, Sleep all the time musell Ache, loss of strength,Concentration level nill etc.At one time I was as strong as an ox,and as the years went by that strength deminished ( as it will)and lately almost gone. Drag myself from room to room trying to get it together for another day truly prompted me to listen to the advice from the V.A.Dr to look into the treatment. I've read all the information I could get my hands on, talked with our family doctor so I have decided to try the theropy route. Now after the first shot About 1 hr ,the problems seem to dissapear. LIke I was back to being my old self. I'm not sure how long it normaly takes for a positive reaction nor how long it will last, But for now, I'm greatfull for the relief.I'm one who don't buy into all medical advice, and I'm extreemly leary about most, but both my doctors are on the same page with my problem. The expense of the drug is costly but Being an outpatient with the Vets, I'm not being put in a pinch. With the diabetes,the insulin has kept me alive since 1985 when I was diagnosed as type 2 and insulin dependent.Wemon don't suffer from low testostrone as men do but they suffer with their own medical problem which mirrors the mens. They suffer with bone loss, rounded shoulders and a whole list of other problems. God bless em!Any person who is ill,has to weigh the options as to whether it is benificial to venture into the unknown or just pass from this world with problems that can be corected. I don"t chose the later.Musell men on steroids look good but as the story goes, performing in other areas(XXX) does't measure up to what it was before the start of steroids.I still want to contribute to the family's welfare by being able to use the tractor- machinery, and do other things to lessen Victors conributions. God bless him!!!!. Well Jde, Just my 002 worth and there is a raft of medical information on the net under Testostrone loss. Interesting reading. Thanks for the reply. Warmest regards LOU

Today's Featured Article - Chores - by Frank Young. The ceaseless passing of time! It is at once our friend and our enemy. It measures our progress and it makes us old. Like most features of our life, few things are all good or all bad, and most such judgments depend on our own perspective or viewpoint. In our particular hobby, we enjoy the nostalgic return to the days of our youth as we recreate many of the scenes that took place on the family farm that served as the stage for the first few acts of the play that is our live ...
