Is it possible - hCG causing panic attacks?

[DaVinci2]

OK, my doctors aren't very helpful in this area. I mentioned that I was feeling very tired after I get my shot. Both doctors I talked with said the same thing "I've never heard of that happening so I don't know what to tell you." Then, I ask if it's possible (Over the las 3 weeks) that because of the hCG (Possible raise in E2) is causing panic attacks? Both have no idea.

Any advice on these 2 issues?

Yes, if your E2 is high, it can cause panic attacks.

I agree your doing HCG and it's driving up your E2 get on some Arimidex .25mgs every 3 days.

HMMMM very interesting. I wonder if this is why women get pannic attacks quite often?

Should I get my blood tested once more for a baseline of E2 while on the hCG and then take the adex and see where that leads me?

Yes, if you can put up with the panic attacks, get an E2 test as fast as possible. Your dose of HCG is probably too high if its pushing your E2 to that level. I would first reduce HCG dose befor I would resort to Arimidex. I would also take DIM before Arimidex and see if reducing HCG dose and taking DIM and possibly 30 mg zinc per day can solve it without arimidex.

My dose was 750ius per week. I plan on lowering it to 500ius until I can figure out a way to hold onto the hCG (Store it after mixing it) and then getting needles. Not sure where to get DIM.

Would this be a good source for DIM?

I don't have much of a choice living here in Japan.

This is what I use.
Dual-Action Cruciferous Vegetable Extract With Resveratrol & Cat's Claw
60 vegetarian capsules
Item Catalog Number: 855
LEF advice is to use it one pill per 160# body weight.
I am 160#, talked with LEF doctor, Dr. Akhundova (800) 226-2370 ext. 7620
she adviced me to use 2 pills daily and no more.
Dr John advices to use 300mg DIM
http://forum.mesomorphosis.com/413411-post13.html
I assume that is about "whole" DIM where bio-active part is only 25%
with that assumption
LEF's one pill of Dual-action have 14mg DIM
0.25*300=75
75/14=5.36
So if you go by Dr John advice use 5 or 6 Dual-Action pills
he advices to use TMG with DIM (I think 2x500=1000mg daily)
For you that would be

LEF claims that TMG lovers homocysteine, but Dr John's reason for TMG use is to flush bad estrogens, possibly same thing.
there is little TMG (100mg) in their multivitamins

I have already started on 3 Dual-action pills but somewhat apprehensive of taking 5 or 6.
Supposedly, for some time, urine start smelling asparagus or brocoli or some such, not sure for how long.
