Dr appointment results

[jtunderdog]

Well I went to the hematologist today and I am up 28 pounds from one year ago. I am at about the same body fat because my waist is still the same but even the nurses and my doctor commented on how much bigger I was. The negative side was that on my cbc my hematocrit was elevated as well as red blood cells. I had to get iv fluids for dehydration, which I had no idea was even going on. I got another cbc and am waiting to hear what is going on.

Hematocrit and red blood cells will tend to be elevated when you go on cycle. It can take a while for them to normalize again after you come off. Dehydrated, eh? That's interesting. How did they know that?

Something in the blood work told them I was dehydrated. She's a hematologist so I have no idea what she ran. I have been off for 4 months nearly so who knows. I am suppose to find out the second set of results tomorrow and if they are still up I will have to have some blood "removed." I wish I could give blood as im o negative but with my immune crap they won't take me.

Elevated BUN/Creatinine ratio indicates dehydration.
