usually if ur tired all day (while on gear)it is a sign of a high rbc(red blood cell count)which can be takin care of by just giving blood but he should see a doctor IMO

bump -give blood works for me, its free to donate, plus if theres something wrong they let you know. Kind of like free minni blood work. I wonder if the person who gets my blood feels a better pump, ha ha

it should be noted that if left untreated it can be VERY dangerous even life threatening. See a doc.

If he thinks his blood is thick, he might want to take a baby aspirin each day. Thick blood in regard to high platelet count can lead to blood clots as well. Better to have thin blood than thick. If problem persists after the aspirin, then find a doc that will treat him even if doing AAS

Like said Iron-man,he can try baby aspirin 81mg ed or regular aspirin 325mg ed,also water,drink a lot of water.

LPR ...dermatology.

my hemoglobin, hemocrit, rbc were high (out of range)(thick blood) when last tested and doc said don't take so much test and drink lots of water....i opted to give blood as suggested here and was even told by the nurse there that it would make my blood thinner but i still want/need to recheck as I noticed even before taking test my levels were high normal....doc did mention thick blood can cause clots
oh, by the way...what did you mean by he gets turned around...from giving blood or being treated?

I see a doc every month or two depending on my cycle. He told me my crit and Hgb was high and to donate blood. He told me to expect this before we started. This is the 1st time I gave blood and wasn't exhausted all day after doing so.
