Update on high Hematocrit levels

[gon3r]

Renholder, your have other options. Blood banks do 'thearaputic' withdrawals with a prescription. They draw it and throw it away. Cost me $20.

Hevew8, you are shooting in the dark without numbers. My blood bank will test hematocrit for free. I walk in, the prick my finger, and give me result. In and out in 5 min.

All - my plan is to drop from 150/mg week to 100/mg week starting tomorrow. I'll also be giving a pint of blood on Tue, so w/ the reduction in dosage and the blood letting I'm hoping I'll get back into the mid 40's for a hematocrit. Then I'll check it in a couple weeks and go from there.

Thanks!

I`m not sure if they do it here in Norway, unless I in fact have a prescription which I do not have at this point.

My last hematocrit was 0,48. The reference range is 0,40-0,50. So, I will probably need to pass 0,50 in order to qualify, if at all.

Do you notice any changes in sexual function when your hematocrit is high?

No, I do not.
