I think I need to get my testosterone levels checked as I ticked most of those symptoms mentioned.
Re fishing – I quite fancy taking it up, but I’m also very aware I need to do more social stuff and not sit on my own for hours on a river bank.
Every time I ask to get my testosterone and thryoid levels checked they’re low but within normal so the GP will do nothing despite my general shit health, symptoms, and family history of low thyroid (mam and brother). I’ve asked if I could just try some of each to see if it helps, but no, your within normal, just low normal.
As for socialising totally, especially as I’m not working due to health issues, and were in a new place so I’ve no contacts here at all. I live 50m from a fishing river, but it’s just an other solo activity.
Tried the cycling club and they’re just too fast even when it’s supposed to be a steady social (seems the faster guys come along for a easy ride, but just end up pushing on all the time); walking group is no-use due to knackered knee limitations; tried the men’s shed and a couple of other men’s groups, but they’re not for me, just don’t click with me; thought about community allotment stuff, but none near and tbh I’m non-use for digging and stuff with health.
Sorry for the poor me post, I guess it hit a spot.
Testicles seem ok though! They’re made of stern stuff, even survived getting the snip. Yeh all that fun of the snip and I’m still firing live ammo!
