My hematocrit has been creeping up again on this blast and I want to get ahead of it before it turns into a real problem. For those of you managing it, how often are you actually getting blood off, and where are you going for it? I know the standard line is a whole blood donation every 3 months or so on TRT, but I am running EQ this time which I hear pushes red cells harder than anything. Trouble is I got knocked back at the Red Cross last time so I am trying to work out what the realistic options are. Keen to hear what schedule people have settled on and how you handle it when the usual route is closed off.
