EQ and lab results

Re: EQ and lab results

Usually blood is about 55% plasma, 40 something % red blood cells, and the rest white blood cells. If you are dehydrated plasma will decrease since it's 90% water and give a high RBC. Hemoglobin is very small molecule, but responsible for carrying oxygen to and carbon dioxide from the red blood cells. So if you are good and hydrated then RBC is the one to be worried about if it's high.

Re: EQ and lab results

Ok first of all im not confusing hct and hgb. Someone made reference that if hct levels were to high the donation center wouldn't let you donate. I simply said MOST not ALL don't not check hct levels for blood donation. Most red cross blood drives want to make sure you're not anemic so you don't bleed out after they poke you. Secondly I think op said he was over 58... 58.6 ...Saying he is AT RISK for something isn't saying it's going to happen.

Maybe I read it wrong. I'm not attacking you, just trying to add and share experiences. My apologies if it came off that way.

Re: EQ and lab results

58% is def high and age and other factors come into play with peoples' tests results. This is why it is could to have comparisons of past labs. Some peoples' norms are different than others.

This. Some people have naturally occurring high RBC count. Without knowing a norm, we couldn't tell you more.

That they have different levels of measuring the two.

Even at 56% he is just outside the high range on hct. That is maybe 18-19 g/DL for hgb. Nothing insane like telling him he will have a stroke any second.

Re: EQ and lab results

By the way smoking and dehydration can also give higher results with these tests. Obviously your doc ran these tests so what was there advice about it?

What exactly are you talking about don't confuse the two???

Re: EQ and lab results

58.6

This is definitely in the danger zone for hematocrit. Id get to a blood donation center as soon as possible like the other guys have mentioned. Your life is never worth ANY cycle. Hopefully you can get that straightened out soon. Good luck to you dude

Re: EQ and lab results

My local blood place does check it. They actually got away with the crude iron blood drop test, and went with hemoglobin tests. 58 is high, get blood drawn somehow.

Average is about 16 for hemoglobin and 50% for hematocrit.

Don't confuse the two.

Re: EQ and lab results

BTW... local blood drives do not check for high hematocrit in most cases. They check iron levels to make sure you aren't anemic and they check body temp and blood pressure.

Fuzo was seeing a Hematologist and he tested for several more things an that is where he had the blood taken twice a week. they would test the rbc and HCT, stat, every time he went

58.6

That high you are running sever risk for stroke and heart problems. Find a blood drive an donate blood Immediately. Paying attention toy your body and monitor yourself with labs is crucial with while running any compound. EQ has all kinds of benefits that out way the negatives as long as the user keeps and eye on themselves. Donating blood every months is a must with eq, specially when stacked with other compounds. Most blood drives will only let you donate once every other month. WHY??? Because it takes 3-4 days for plasma levels to come back up to normal, it takes 30-60 days for rbc to get back to normal. When I run eq I donate after first month then every other accordingly. EQ will cause test to crash, so of course run a test base when stacking with eq. Your test levels will only reflect how much test you are taking.

Re: EQ and lab results

58.6

yep, that is quite high. Check with your doc about it, that is what I would do. Do you have bloodwork to compare with before going on the EQ?

Re: EQ and lab results

So what was your rbc and hematocrit level anyway?

58.6
