    Hct coming down

    Well I met the hematologist today and he had the same concern as my TRT DR did. My H&H has been high for years. HCT has not bee under 50 since 2001, 12 yawners before starting TRT. So he is ruling out primary polycythemia testing EPO, Jak2b gene problems, and for CML, some type of leukemia...

    Hct coming down

    Hi Vince, Yeah I take 2 baby aspirin in the am and again in the pm. Also 3,600 mg of fish oil a day. I have read that posting. As painful and uncomfortable as it has been without T for the last few weeks, it is certainly better than a stroke!!! I am monitoring my BP. It is good to see my hct...

    anybody ever go to hematologist??

    Vince Carter, Thanks for your post. I believe due to how high my Hct went, 62, with only 40 mg T cup every 3.5 days and the fact that I have never really ever been under 50 since I been keeping records from 2000 , way before any TRT, he wants to make sure there is not an underlying cause for red...

    7 lessons about finding the work you were meant to do

    I am truly blessed to be in the "zone". Still it is work, but almost everyday I am glad to go out the door and do my job. I realize that most do not get that feeling. If you are on the bubble about changing to a job that can get you there, I would advise to give it serious consideration, it...

    anybody ever go to hematologist??

    Due my perpetually high hct, even years before TRT I was at 50, my dr is requesting me to see a hematologist to verify there is no other underlying problem and if not to get a phlebotomy schedule for us to follow. So my question is has anybody ever had to go down this road and if so what kind...

    How to Respond to Very High Hematocrit

    Yeah i hear ya and agree. Unfortunately red cross will not take blood at this level and o ly let me do theraputic every 4 weeks. Dropping 2-3 points per time will not get me down to 50 for naother 4 months! Yikes!

    How to Respond to Very High Hematocrit

    I will look to add hcg when i speak with new dr, and speak to him about clomid or tamox. Inam afraid i can take no more T cyp at this point with such high hct. Apparently the 40 mg every 3.5 days is not so fine, as it sent my T way higher than the 200 every two weeks did. Kinda...
