Why do people stick gum under the desk instead of throwing it in the trash?
Do they plan on using it again later and forget about it?
Passing this along in case it helps others. I have a long history of insomnia like many do here. Tried many things, currently awaiting sleep study analysis, etc. I don't want to jinx myself by posting here yet at the same time want to help others. I ordered some CBN (I'd say name brand but don't want to make this sound like an advertisement). It's THC free. Bottle suggested 2 gummies (20mg), and at 210 pounds I wasn't expecting much when only trying one for the first time. Woke up this morning and it feels so nice to actually sleep! Glad I only went for 10mg because I don't know if I'd get out of bed with 20.
So I'm in my mid 40's (Edit: Male) and my test was almost clinically low 4 years ago as it was at 308 at total test. I've been suffering from really bad insomnia for a long period of time and I'm going through a checklist of what to look for that can be a factor. I provided things that I wanted to look into to rule out root causes, and one of them was a request for the usual rundown of what you look for in testosterone levels such as total, free, estradoil, etc. She said to be cautious of messing with test, but I didn't know that was a NO. My bloodwork results only show a test in sex hormone binding globulin, which was within range.
Since it took so long to get this appt in the first place, and I have health insurance which is still trash overall anyways, what would be the reason for not being proactive and wanting to know how optimal aspects of my body are working as I approach older age? I was also curious as to what my test levels would be since I've drastically reduced alcohol consumption and eating more clean. It would have been a great motivator to see some improvement.
