Hello, XXXXXXX,
You tell us that you started receiving injection of testosterone
recently.Diarrhea is nkot one of the side effects mentioned.
You can have breast enlargement andt hair loss.
You mention possibility of salmonella,did you get into some
Contaminated food? Especially poultry or dairy products.
Myonnaise and egg sandwiches etc.
If you continue to have diarrhea, get your stool examined.
As far as I can determine, testosterone injection may not
be the reason for your problem.
Wish you well.
