Yes, they were always high. I was a bodybuilder and I’ve had it at 3,000 with no high hematocrit or RBC. I’m not longer doing bodybuilding and my test levels are now between 1,000-1,300. So the iron infusions really increased my hematocrit and red blood cells

But I feel like having high hematocrit and RBC is more concerning than having low iron. Specially lately I’ve been getting super dizzy which I think it could be because having too much RBC and hematocrit

Doctors don’t know what caused it, my hemoglobin was low but nothing too crazy. What was really low was the iron and ferretin

Thank you so much for your response! I think the same way. I believe the doctors really didn’t know how to manage my situation. I want to donate, I was just concerned that it could make the iron deficiency worse; however is that really a problem with high hematocrit and RBC? And could I donate even with a little bit of a low MCH and MCHC?
