New Labs

[SoCalSurfer]

I just got my new labs.
I wonder if I am a bit high. I am taking .25 (200mg/10ml) twice a week.
The blood draw was the day of the injection before I did that days shot.

[Gene Devine]

It's fine.

What about Free? Estrogen?

What about all your other labs?

 

[SoCalSurfer]

If I could get them to run them. Thats the only level they test for. :-(

 

[Vince Carter]

There's not a thing wrong with being high you just have to watch it for negative symptoms but namely hematocrit/hemoglobin/red blood cells, reason Gene asked the other labs, that should have been run.

 

[Vettester Chris]

Well, if total serum is the only thing that needs addressed, yours is OK.

 

[SoCalSurfer]

Hi, The rest of my labs that I got back.

I am diabetic, so its elevated but good for me.

[Gene Devine]

Hematocrit is high; you need to give blood pretty soon...or very soon.

Where are the rest of your hormonal panels?

Estrogen, SHBG, IGF-1, TSH...and on.

One can't make any real assessment without a complete hormonal panel.

Give blood...

 

[CoastWatcher]

Have you had to give blood in the past to control elevated levels?

 

[Vince Carter]

I've donated, back in Nov, I'm otherwise eligible meaning I didn't walk in and get diarhhea of the mouth with the Red Cross for why I was there. "Just here to do my good deed", and left it at that. Others have walked in with this high hematcrit/RBC/Hemoglobin story and been turned away and/or blacklisted. Answer their health questions honestly and other keep your mouth shut
I'll be donating the end of this month. I should do it every four months not 6 but I'm not all that worried about my high numbers.

 

[SoCalSurfer]

Have you had to give blood in the past to control elevated levels?

Never have had to give blood.

 

[Midnight]

As soon as they pricked my finger to test my iron levels, they new immediately that I was on TRT. One said to the other.... He's on that testosterone... They welcomed my donation and said the blood doesn't lie. In another thread, Nelson noticed certain blood levels were high and knew the individual was taking oral anabolics. I was impressed when I read that and it matches up to what they said about the blood not telling lies.
