CBC Blood Test - Slightly high red blood cell count

[SoCalSurfer]

Hi
Recent CBC and Metabolic test. Any comments?
Still waiting on my other Testosterone results. Endo office called and said Testosterone was elevated so lowered dose from .5ml twice a week to .5ml once a week. I think i will do .25 ml twice a week. re-test in 3 months Thyroid still not correct, so he increased dose from 88 to 100 micro-grams.

Looks ok, Hct I believe is Hematocrit and if so you're fine.

Where are your hormonal and thyroid labs?

These are the ones that interest us the most.

BTW, were's your PSA and E2 labs?

 

[Vettester Chris]

Your Reds are up a bit, plus hematocrit is creeping up a little ... This can be a factor on TRT. In short look at donating blood.

Would like to see other labs if you have them, as noted by Gene. Add iron serum, TIBC, and ferritin to that list, which you will also want to keep tabs on when/if you get on a regular schedule of blood donations.

Still waiting on other lab results. As a cyclist I don't mind the extra red blood cells. Carry more 02.

Extra RBCs are a double-edged sword. Gene and Chris will clarify when you post the hormone panel results.
