@jeffmarc thank you yes, testosterone wasn't even in my question.
Is a lack of testosterone the cause of all this discomfort? I don't know, and I am starting to think that this is affecting my heart. And certainly not getting good sleep isn't good
I want to see an endocrinologist. It doesn't seem anyone else has

It definitely can affect your heart. I personally am getting a lot of Skipped beats. Low testosterone is not good for your heart.
Most prostate cancer patient don’t die of prostate cancer they die of heart disease.
Having very low or no testosterone is linked to a higher risk of heart disease, weight gain, and type 2 diabetes. While low testosterone does not directly damage heart tissue on its own, it is tied to poor blood vessel health, higher body fat, and increased inflammation.
