Good evening gentlemen! I am a 54 yo manand have been following for several months, great imformation. Have posted under different name but cannot sign back in with that name.
Long story short my internal med dr had me on 200 mg test C every two weeks, started in spring 2014, things have been great. Hematocrit had climbed, been 55-56 for a couple years, i had no odea that was bad. It jumped up to 62 in early nov on my second annual visit. He asked me to come off and start 50 mg clomid every day.
I started research, found this forum, and spoke with defy medical. They sent me script for phlebotomy. After first draw in early dec hct was 54! I am guessing 62, from a different lab, was incorrect. I reduced dosage to 40 mg every 3.5 days in late dec. Been feeling like poo, anxious, drop in energy and motivation, but trying to get hct down. Got script for phlebotomy changed to every 4 weeks, and did a drawn down today at red cross. She red my hemoglobin ay 20.7!!
Was told by defy i need to get hct down to 51 before they will take me as a patient. So i am in a pickel. Should i go back to my dr and do the clomid. My lh was low on initial blood work ant total T was under 300, so if i was not making lh then how could clomid do me any good now.
