I have been using AndroGel since 2010, and I have not experienced neither the racing heart symptom you describe nor the constant, distracting arousal. I am 5'6, 140 lb and I take two pumps daily of the 1.62% testosterone gel (20.25 mg of testosterone per pump).

Well I cut it in half and now the symptoms have died down so I can sleep.

This is good news. I am glad to hear it. Now you can get the benefits of testosterone replacement therapy without the side effects you were having.
