[QUOTE="HealthMan, post: 49413, member: 13512"] Hi guys. i have been on TRT for less than 1 year and recently my hematocrit was slightly elevated (51.2). I was told to donate blood or perform a Therapeutic Phlebotomy. My blood pressure is normal at home (ranging from 110-70 to 120-80) but i have white coat syndrome and my BP at the doctor office sometimes can be as high as 160/100 and pulse around 100. So long story short i went to donate blood this morning and of course i was very nervous that my BP would be high. Sure enough. 162/104 and 100 heart rate so i was not accepted to donate. I tried to explain to the lady that i have white coat syndrome to let me try to relax for a few minutes and measure again. She was all rude and didnt allow me to. Ok. Went back home and measure my BP (120/78 and heart rate at 74). So frustrating. What can i do in this situation? I am so frustrated. [/QUOTE]
