My hemocrit and hemoglobin has been running high for a couple of years and the doctor thinks it is a response to being on test injections. I wondered if it could be that I am just dehydrated when I get a blood test because they have me not drinking any water for the night before. Anyways do you guys have any ideas on this?

NO DUDE! You can drink all of the water that you want! Water is the main vehicle of the body's regulatory systems. Take 1 baby aspirin per nite for 4 days, then 1 baby aspirin e/o day afterwards. Are you doing AAS along w/pro-hormones...?

I fully agree here as well....I drink HUGE amounts of water, and always take ASA daily, and my blood flows like water......Oh and I'll bet dollars to doughnuts that I also take WAAAYYY more test than you do.

Three months, I'm on Androgel in the meantime but that is not cutting it.

Yeah I am going to try the asprin idea and start drinking more water. I think that could be the problem. And yeah I'm sure you are doing a lot more test than me PS. Cheesy

Just wondering here...are you taking any other "prescribed meds" that may have those systems/sides over time...other than the A-gel?

Thats a good question, I'm going to run that past the doctor also. I never thought that maybe some of the other Rx could be having a side affect. I take toprol for h/b.

ASA and plenty of water should help. Also, where do you live? We live at a high altitude, and everyone up here who is at all active has at least somewhat elevated numbers on any blood test that pertains to red blood cells. hematocrit, hemoglobin, mchc,.... Never had that in Tennessee, no matter how much stuff I was running.

Don't laugh at this! Drink 1 to 2 glasses of wine per day (i prefer whiskey) BUT my point here is this...small amounts of alchohol per day will/has been documented to "thin" one's blood! Also try to intake around 4 to 8 grams of good fatty acids/day (Omega 3, 6, and 9) by way of flax, fish, CLA and/or primrose oil...all standards.  J.

Its not any alcohol, its just red wine  Grin, and the dosage would be around 90ml a day (one glass), but it is very controversial since studies don't seem to show  a pattern which is good and straight enough to make it a satisfactory test.  I wouldn't rely on that  Grin

ASA (aspirin), 100mg/day won't "dilute" blood, it would just avoid coagulation which is colloquially known as "thinning blood", but it has absolutely no effect on HC/Hemoglobin levels.  It is true running test. increases the probability of a thrombosis disease and ASA could help with that, but not with "thick blood".

How high is your "high-hemoglobin"?  I mean, range of "normality" its quite big.  I live at 2,600 meters over see level, so having a HB of 18 and HC of 50% is not uncommon.  I doubt it, but have you ever been a smoker?   What kind of work you do mntbikedude?  Cause some professions are more linked to higher HC/HB without this being an issue...

Anyway, yu can drink as much water as you want until 8 hours prior to the exams....Cheesy
