Methods to reduce RBC
Recent bloods show my RBC count is slightly elevated, which is weird because I haven't used the sauce yet. Doctor said its not high enough to warrant worry, but it can be in the future.
I don't want to donate blood because of the hassle of going to a center and waiting.
Any other methods to lower it? Even a little would work

The most important thing is to make sure you are hydrated.

I don't know I had mine checked and it showed mine was high and it was around the 1200 range and they said it was very high so I haven't been back to the doctor to have it checked again , I think I may but I wanted to get something for my testosterone so I didn't have buy anything illegal or anything so I wanted to do it the right way. But it looks like its not going to happen right now, so it made me kind of disappointed to because I would rather have a doctor prescribe me the stuff and monitor my testosterone levels

Personally I would rather be hassled for a couple hours and give blood than feel like crap from high rbc and risk the potential health problems that high rbc can cause... I would wait till it is high enough to warrent giving blood though

Go and donate. Do a Double RBC donation or you could do what natch is SUPPOSED to be doing and do it yourself bass has a video on how to do it.

just playing natch. Op you can also use a daily low dose of baby aspirin to prevent clots.

I think a daily baby aspirin will be good for now.
Will re-consider the option of donating blood if after June's blood work the rbc count doesn't improve

^^^ yes indeed, DLD... Bonaparte just explained that in my thread as well(or on the same topic)... I do know of people(myself included - take baby aspirin daily anyways, but have heard of people that self blood let, taking baby aspirins moreso b4 the blood letting is done - don't know how effective this is), yet...
Ps... Uhit, you know about it! Lol I just realized it was you... I thought you were the first to respond lolLast edited by NACH3; 04-24-2015 at 08:44 AM.

I looked up the procedure for donating blood.
They take prick your finger for a small sample to test iron, then if thats okay they let you donate. I saw some forum post about how a guy couldnt get sufficient blood out from 9 of his fingers so he got pricked 10 times lol.
Makes me think I'm gonna be a pin cushion that day.

x2 on BB and AG said.
Just don't do any cardio or hard work gym ect after if you really have to wait 4-5 hour after but just rest the if you can the rest of the day remember drink lots of water keep hydrated and have a good meal before you go. I think this you first time tice eh ?? They will ask you to stay fir 10-15 min after just to make sure your ok and give you juice or water no Tea or coffee after your donation and choc biscuits.

Well just an update on my trip to the donation bus. I got turned down because my blood presser was lower then the machine could go. I was at 120/20 and she told me it seems even lower then that. She called in two other nurses to check it and all of them were surprised. They had never seen that before. I started getting nervous because I didn't know what that meant. I thought u may had known I was on the juice lmao (rookies thinking). Then I asked her to check my RBC, she did and it was perfect she said. Right at the perfect point to were the blood isn't to thick or thin... I'm honestly a little surprised how my RBC was perfect after a 14wk cycle of tren ,test,mast,winny,t3,clen oh and the kitchen sink bahahaha

Yeah it was three different nurses that came in and did the blood press cuff right after the machine won't read lower. They all couldn't get below 120/20 either. Then I asked the one nurse if she could so my RBC anyways. She did it and said it's perfect. Not to thick and not to thin. In was right where it needed to be. Crazy right

High RBC can lead to high blood pressure not to a diastolic value of 20!
I dont understand how can any medical staff tell you your blood pressure is 120/20, and not ask immediately for an ambulance to take you to the hospital.
They didnt want your blood for some reason and made an excuse is my best bet.
Regarding your blood pressure you should have a bp monitor at home:
Its quite cheap, your can buy one for around 40$.

I've also read that high RBC could be from sleep apnea. How would someone go about getting that diagnosed and/or treated?

There is no way possible to reduce red cells without removing them. Whole blood or double RBC.

Diagnosing sleep apnea? Have someone sleep in the same room. If they wake up on the couch in the other room, then you have apnea.
But yes, Apnea, smoking, living in elevated areas all contribute to high RBC. Anything that would deprive you of oxygen would cause excess RBC's.~ PLEASE DO NOT ASK FOR SOURCE CHECKS ~
