[QUOTE="Engineer, post: 320956, member: 7069"] Alright, I'm taking the plunge. Tired of feeling tired and getting old (46) so recovery from training is starting to be a pain in the ass. Morning wood and sex drive have been fine but poor sleep and low energy have been the main issues. My workouts are OK, doing long triathlons just fine an dropping a bit of weight via diet improvements. My initial numbers were about the bottom 10% of my age, can't remember exactly, but I'll post later what they were pre-TRT and after. Question to all of you out there, I'm going with Defy Medical Clinic in Florida. Anyone else here using these guys? Feedback/experience with Dr. Saya? They said if someone who already uses Defy referred me to them, I can get them a $25 credit on their account. Send me a PM and I'll get you that credit. Here's my last email with them. I just phoned them and dropped $330 for the labs and initial one hour phone consult: "[i]I wanted to follow up to see if you are still interested in the services offered at our clinic. We are a full service telemedicine clinic, which means you can consult with Dr Saya and his medical staff by phone or email. The blood work required can be ordered for you to go into a Labcorp facility near your home. If you have insurance coverage we can provide a prescription for the blood work for you to take to your local lab. If your insurance does not cover your blood work we offer very low cost test prices. We do not accept insurance at the clinic, however we do provide free claim service which means we provide the forms needed to submit your bill for reimbursement. The costs are as follows; Initial 1 hour phone consultation with Dr Saya: $175 (only $90 for follow ups thereafter) Dr Saya requires two follow up appointment per year for men on Testosterone therapy (every 6 months). You can choose to have your follow up with Dr Saya or with his RN, Jill. The follow up costs are as follows: Follow up lab review w/ Dr Saya- $75 Follow up lab review w/ Nurse- $45 To begin testosterone therapy we will need the following blood work; Comprehensive Metabolic Panel- $10 CBC- $10 Lipid Panel- $10 Testosterone Free and Total- $29 Estradiol- $25 DHEA-S- $26 TSH-$15 PSA-$15 LH-$10 I listed the prices in case your insurance does not cover some or all of these tests. The listed price is what you would pay us so if you do have coverage there will be no charge for blood work. This would be in addition to the consultation. Once the results become available, which takes 3-5 business days, we schedule you for your phone appointment with Dr Saya. [/i]" [/QUOTE]
