Hi,
I've been on TRT for about 6 years.
Recently, my Doctor told me I have polycythemia.
He sent me to a hematologist with my blood test results.
I was hoping he was going to prescribe therapeutic phlebotomy, but instead, he said we'll just keep and eye on it.
I was a little bit angry and disappointed. I would go to a blood bank and donate blood, but I can't.
I had Hepatitis C and took interferon and ribavirin back in 2000.
I was determined to be undetectable after being on it for a year, so basically, I'm cured.
Unfortunately, I still can't donate.
Does anyone know what I can do to get around this predicament?
I am really frustrated, because most people on TRT can just go to a blood bank.
I can't and the doctor won't do anything.
Thanks
