I inject Sat Morning 100mg of Test, 25K IU's of vitamin D
Blood Work the following Tuesday morning at 8am

Protocol : 200mg / week (100mg a dose)
Arimidex : Only here and there... whenever I feel my estrogen is high.
Vitamin D : 50K IU's week
hCG : 1000IU's / week.

Test : 1230ng/dl
Free Test : 40.59
SHBG : 26
ILGH : 227
Estradoil : 14
LH / FSH < 0.1
Hemotracrit : 43.4
Vitamin B12 : 2000 (way too high)
Alkaline Phosphate : 36 (scale is 40-129)
Bun Creatine Ratio : 22.5 (scale is 10-20)
Vitamin D : 25 (Anything under 30 is low)


Questions,

1. How on earth is my Vitamin D still low after injection 50k IU's a week from pharmacy grade Vitamin D ?
2. Testosterone is clearly a bit high... I'll take down from 200mg --> 180mg.
3. I am concerned about the Bun / Creatine ratio.... Doc said not to worry and hydrate more..

Anyone's thoughts after 7 weeks? Do my results fall in line with your expectations ?

Also,
6'4 240lbs 16%bf.
Lift heavy 5 days a week
Run 10 miles a week
Diet is pretty healthy...


Sides:
No acne beside is blimp on my chin the other day.

That's really about it.
 
What form of Vit D are you doing? 25 hydroxy or 1,25 dihydroxy?

Bottle just says Vitamin D3.. I'll have to find out.

What bothers me the most is I had my blood work done in November and my Vitamin D level was 27... without injections. Now that I am injecting 50K IU's per week... my vitamind D level actually went down ??

I'm having blood work done Friday. I'm in a similar situation to you, and I'll be a little pissed too if I my D3 isn't up after injecting it for several weeks now. I was told by others on here that the D3 injections where a waste, and to just take it orally.

Well there are two different forms of vitamin D. 25 Hydroxy gets turned into 1,25 dihydroxy. The latter form has 1,000x more affinity to the receptor. So if it is the later it will not show up on a regular vitamin D test.

Hope this helps.
