[QUOTE="Anabaptist, post: 96856, member: 12305"] But do you feel okay otherwise? Dr. Caulkins is my doctor as well. I have to be phlebotomized because I am not eligible to donate. 750 milliliters every 3.5 months. I thought the point of blood removal was to make the body slightly anemic so it would stop making so many red blood cells !! If you feel all right otherwise and the hormonal levels are good, I would just forget about it .. Even with testosterone therapy, all your numbers will not be text book normal. Just get it the best you can for your situation and run with it !! At some point your ferritin will slowly rise again, and when RBC starts creeping up you will have to donate again! Ferritin is just a protein for iron storage. It represents iron that the body is not using and doesn't need. All iron in the body is recycled. The male body has no way to eliminate iron other than bleeding ... This is just my opinion .. I am not a doctor, just a low level plastics engineer .. [/QUOTE]
