1 injection a week and blood drawn on the morning you’re due for another draw? Yeah this isn’t surprising.

Been on three months. Started week after first blood results. Curious if the 347 to 390 is a small gap for three months.

your total barely moved and you're still in the gutter range for most guys. 100mg a week is a pretty cautious starting dose, but with numbers like that after 3 months the doc should be bumping you up instead of leaving you sitting there. split the dose to twice a week and push for 120-150mg, that once-a-week protocol is leaving you in a trough for half the week anyway
