Question: A month and a half ago after quiting vaping and starting to exercise i began feeling out of it. Generally foggy, dizzy, blurred vision, never feeling rested, mild numbness in ring and pinky fingers,lack of concentration, very emotional and anxiety attacks. I also deal with tinnitus which seemed to get bit louder and felt like it was resonating through my body. Ive been dealing with stress and anxiety for the past two years.

I had also been on Losartan for the past year and a half. It had always made me a little dizzy. taking my blood pressure at home i noticed my BP to be consistently 106-116 / 62-68.

I visited my doctor to bring him up to speed. I was advised to start tapering off the Losartan by taking it every other day for a week. It was also brought to my attention that some of what i was dealing with was due to stopping testosterone therapy.

The following day i skipped the losartan and did feel a bit better. The day after I took the losartan again and felt worse. I called the doctor and was advised to stop use all together. This is where the anxiety really kicked in. my anxiety went to an all time high. I felt like I was having anxiety attack 24 hours a day for the next 2 to 3 weeks.
My blood pressure now reads in normal ranges and my anxiety has subsided.

most of what i described in the begining of this has calmed down. I am left with a few sympoyoms that are concerning (listed below)
After coming off of the losartan I started eating a plant-based diet which caused loose stool for two weeks accompanied by stomach cramping. this diet was continued for a month and a half. I also started using an over the counter fiber colon cleanse product. three days into using this colon cleanse I began having stomach cramping in my lower abdomen about at the top of my pelvis. This is been accompanied by but I can only describe as flaky stool.

-Dizzy
-Tingling in fingers
-pressure in temples
-ears constantly popping
-occasional tingling/crawling sensation on scalp
-ringing in ears
-stomach cramping/bowel movement issues
-inability to loose weight

Thank you for your response. Yes sir. I had labs done on two different occasions recently. One before starting testosterone therapy and one three weeks after. And the first my testosterone level was 152 and my estrogen was also lower than normal. Also showed a deficiency of vitamin D three. After second blood draw I was told everything is back to normal. I’m not sure of the depth of which they looked into my labs. The doctor instructed me to start taking vitamin D3, DIM SGS Plus, and Magnesium-L-Threonate. Soo you have any particular deficiencies you would suspect given the symptoms?

Thank you. The only prescription I am taking at this point is the Testosterone. I was taking a fiber based colon cleanse but stopped two days ago due to cramping in my lower abdomen. The cramping is a bit better today. I am currently introducing some meat and dairy products back into my diet to attempt to regain abdominal/ Bowel comfort.

Do you have an idea or timeframe that it normally takes for the receptor adaptation you had mentioned previously to take place?
