Hello friends, Bio is below these questions if interested.
I want to start TRT and get into the 800-1100 range. What is the best range for mood improvement?
Lets say you feel better at 600, will you feel even better at 1100?
I am aware that the more frequent the injections, the better the stability of your level.

Im a male, age 29, Weight train twice a week, cardio once a week due to severe recovery even from half hour workout sessions, in very deep Keto dieting, (only cruciferous vegetables and lean proteins with high quality coconut oil, less than 25 grams carbs per day-literally no sugar, very high fiber.) which is the only diet to keep me at the lowest which is at 280lbs at 5ft 8, lots of muscle and lots of fat, BMI 42 (morbid obesity) I went into Keto because it was supposed to cure the rage and irritability associated with bipolar and depression. I know this diet can lower testosterone so before i went on it, i asked my doctor for testing.
Went to first Doctor about 2 years and they only tested free T at 42 (35-155) this was taken right after waking up. He did everything else including Thyroid and it was all normal.
I asked for more T tests....
He said no, your normal, prescribed medication that didn't work. fast forward a year and.....
I ordered labs from Lab Corp. (now i am in very deep Ketosis)
Test was taken about 4-hours after waking up, how much of a difference would this impact the levels?
Also here is a link to the complete labs CBC
https://goo.gl/xpHhUd
FSH 1.5 (1.5-12.4)
LH 2.3 (1.7-8.6)
Estradiol 25.9 (7.6-42.6)
Testosterone Total 123 (348-1197)
Glucose Fasting 106 mg/dl (70 - 99) mg/dL
Vitamin D 65
TSH 1.2
Then a month later i showed my doctor (different one then the last) the labs i got from Labcorp got a more complete testosterone profile officially from my primary doctors labs. He said the range would be much lower so i was desperate to make sure it was low so woke up 8 hours before the blood draw.
Total- 126, (160-726)----- can you believe this reference range?
Bio avail T-84 (48-317)
Free T- 36 (20-135)
SHBG 13 (10-57)
He wants one more lab done in October before we talk about treatment.
Thanks for your help.
