husband outgrew CAE, I think he now has TLE
Sat, 11/20/2004 - 19:31I've read that alot of men with TLE have hypogonadism a hormone problem with low testosterone levels, infertility, and impotence problems. we had been trying to conceive for 3 years and he has alot of symptoms of hyogonadism with low androgen/testosterone levels like impotence, man breast, and low sperm counts.
I'm trying to talk him into going to the a doctor for both problems but he thinks the epilesy has gone away and the fits of anger are really getting rediculous, he'll rage over the stupid stuff like when he can't find were he sat something (his memory is awfull) and he will acuse me "hiding it" and will rant until i find it. I really want him to go to the doctor! He's just not HIM any more.
Has anyone had CAE that turned in to TLE?
Has anyone with TLE been diagnosed with hypogonadism or low androgen/ testosterone levels? if so how was it treated?
