Ok. Now is a time to panic. For real. My trans doctor. The doctor who checks my levels and all that. He's actually an endocrnolgist but he goes under trans affirming care for insurance reasons. But he just got back to me through my portal and said my blood levels remain high even after decreasing my testereone levels. Which may indicate a secondary cause. He said he'll discuss it with me on Thursday.

I am about to have a legit panic attack. I was actually already on the verge of one before I got the news. I have a weird feeling in my lungs which I thought was anxiety. What the **** does a secondary cause mean? Is that the blood cancer those 2 levels can indicate when they are high?

I am really really scared and I have to wait 2 days to get answers from him. My mom is all like "oh don't worry about it." But how can anyone, even someone without an anxiety disorder not worry over this?
