[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 267992, member: 16042"] I do "get it". I fully understand your arguments. But "getting it" does not mean wholesale acceptance of your conclusions. I remain unconvinced for the reasons I have already stated. I am not going to argue with you further on that basis. I am surprised you apparently did not notice my last comment about the glacial pace of debunking medical myth. I agree, from what I can tell now, the testosterone and prostate issue exemplifies this, and it is glacially entering the mainstream now. But that is not the issue at hand, and has no bearing on the physiology of hematocrit. [I]Why have I not provided evidence that it is harmful?[/I] Because I am not a clinical researcher. I only seek answers, and you have not convinced me based on my own N-1 experience which is contrary to your entire hypothesis. No amount of double negative circular logic will change that. My own symptoms remain the benchmark for my treatment decisions. Good luck to you! I do appreciate your perspective. [B]EDIT:[/B] You know, actually I do have a side question for you: I used to be a high altitude mountaineer, in part educated by Dr Peter Hackett, an altitude researcher, and I taught high altitude physiology to mountaineers. At that time one of the purported limiting factors to altitude adaptation was the stacking phenomenon of RBCs passing through capillaries. The RBCs need to be able to present their flat/concave surface to the membrane for gas transfer to occur, but with erythrocytosis, there comes a point that they stack like stacks of poker chips which prevents gas exchange. Has there been follow up or updates to this info? [/QUOTE]
