[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 278826, member: 15832"] Your mistake is you're trying to be your own doctor without any knowledge of what constitutes normal or in this case optimal hematocrit. If you want the facts, with a secondary erythrocytosis there is an increase in blood volume which enlarges the vascular bed, decreases peripheral resistance and increases cardiac output. Therefore, [B]in a secondary erythrocytosis optimal oxygen transport with increased blood volume occurs at a higher hematocrit value than with a normal blood volume[/B]. [B][U]A moderate increase in hematocrit may be beneficial despite the increased viscosity[/U][/B]. There are over 80 million people that live higher than 2,500 meters and they develop a secondary erythrocytosis. Men in parts of Bolivia for instance have a normal range of HCT from 45-61%. These men are not at an increased risk of thrombotic events nor do they have to undergo phlebotomies to manage their hematocrit. [/QUOTE]
