Yes it’s a medical issue. Yes it’s causing all my mental health symptoms. The doctor called and my testosterone is actually too high. And 2 of my blood levels the ones that have to do with red blood counts are dangerously high. Like heart attack/stroke kind of high. The doctor said the high testosterone is why I’m so angry and anxious all the time and that’s why five valium a day aren’t working. It’s also probably what’s causing my sleep problems as well. So he told me to stop the testosterone for 2 weeks to reset my body. Since I’ve had the surgery my body won’t go back to the female hormones so I’ll be fine. I’ll start to feel better mentally and physically. Then in 2 weeks I’ll be put on a lower dose of testosterone and I’ll do the blood work again a week before I see him in December.

So I am a bit freaked out that my levels got that high but it’s nice when everything I’m feeling can be attributed to something medical instead of me just losing my marbles for no reason.
