Got blood work results

[AllDay]

Are you still "off" Bouncer? Just curious as to exactly how long you have been off and how much size you've lost, if any?

Also, when do you plan on going back "on" and what are you starting back with?

[Bouncer]

All I have is an email showing me the numbers of what wasn't in range which is the good cholesterol being to low which I posted above. Every other column simply says "in range".

Maybe the levels being high is more of a genetic or age thing. Could also have something to do with my diet, fish oil, aspirin etc.. I dunno.

so what was yours then B if they tested it?

[ROCKETW19]

It appears fitnessbrat is correct. I had a CBC for insurance. This is what a CBC includes.

Complete Blood Count (CBC)

maybe mine don't cuz I don't have a set panel of things
my doc pics or I pick what we test. every 6 months he will do a set panel but Id say I do it every 3 months sometimes less if i am testing Gh or something

[ROCKETW19]

Rocket, when's the last time you came off? What would your doc do if your hemo levels were high?

its been at least 3 years. my levels are always high like BLMs
I just give blood and it lowers. in Cali we can give blood every 8 weeks I do it more like evey 4 months. saying that I need to do it now.

A quick web search of high hemoglobin and hematocrit on trt comes back with countless results.

I'm aware because of blood tests and my Dr.

A quick Web search of various innocuous symptoms can scare the shit out of people as to what the causes may be.

A quick Web search as to possible side effects of most medicine reveals a huge plethora of possibilities.

But that doesn't mean they normally happen to dangerous levels.

I think most people are ok with low dose. With hemocrit levels it's about keeping them in normal range. Small increases aren't generally a problem but I can see you may be overly sensitive

I'd venture to guess ( pure speculation) that because your bp is good, that your hemo is good as well. That was my red flag.

Every CBC I had included hemoglobin and hematocrit.

[Bouncer]

So is hemo included on basic blood work or not? Fitnessbrat (nurse) says definitely yes, rocket says definitely no.

[Mr I]

Honestly your the only ones I heard of on test had issues there

[ROCKETW19]

It's very common with trt patients because they're typically on for years at a time.

I agree if it wasn't so common my doc wouldn't be on it so much. He tests the level every other blood test so about 1 time per year but between that I have to show him my receipt for donating blood
I think it's more common than people think
It's just not know cuz I dont "think" it's in normal blood panel it fir sure ain't in mine

Yeah it's rare low to moderate test would send hemocrit over.

Thanks

Can't be that rare cuz I'm like blm akways at the 18s with just 150 test E
So there's 2 of us outta the 6 people that posted. Do the other 4 even know there numbers?
