How long to drop test levels?

Ok... My doc had me on 100mg test cyp 1x week. After my last blood test I thought I would be out of the woods (medically) and raised it on my own to 300 a week. Still using the prescribed 100mg of test c with added 200mg home brew. Turns out that the tests proved it was still low. Doc is not shooting for the sky and I have a feeling if he hits 300ng he will consider himself a genius.
Here's the problem...

He raised the weekly dose to 125mg and wants to see me back in about 6 weeks. I have been on the 300 for about 4 wks and I am just starting to feel good/great.

If I reduce the amount to 125mg a week, How long will it take to drop back down? I don't want him to see a blood test and freak because it's too high and I don't want him to see an elevated test and think he is the smartest endo on the block (he's not).

Assuming the half life is 10 days. How long will it take me to drop back down.

Math is a strong point for me but I would like someone with experience to chime in. Putting the appointment off for a couple of weeks would be no problem.
 
put it off a couple extra weeks and drop the amount to 125

5 weeks after I was still a little high for me and I quit everything.

explanation: I was on 500mg per month, I knew that was dumb so I took weekly inj. dont remember the amount ( was a year ago)but closer to 400mg per week. quit for 5 weeks and got retested. I think i was at 196 test when I started and retested at 550.
 
Just don't want to come in too high and have this guy yank my ticket. I'll put him off for about 8 or 9 weeks.
