Blood clots.

I have a protein-S defiicency, and thus, am at high risk of DVT, and general hyper-coagulation.
I have already had a pulmonary embolism, actually. So now I take cummadin to thin my blood, and get regular pro-times done.

What kind anabolics exist that do not change clotting factors, such that it will not thin/thicken the blood (ie something that will not excessively increase or decrease RBC)

Any help/links are much appreciated. I am on a dead end on this one, and this is the fourth board I have turned to.

i'm an md myself and i would highly highly recommend that you stay away from AS if you have protein s deficiency. all AS affect red cell production, clotting factors, etc.

Thanks for the reply.

Hmmm... That's not what I wanted to hear :wg:

There isn't a single drug that would be compatible with my situation? I am just finding that hard to believe.

i guess if you have a lot of $$$ you can run just about everything and get a PT, PTT, INR, and clotting time done every couple of days to see how they're being affected and adjust your coumadin accordingly... sounds like a huge hassle and the only safe thing i can think of.

AAS work so well because they increase your RBC production, among many other things. Stay natural as nothing is worth a stroke or coronary.
