Hello everyone,
I am doing a deca/test cycle for only 4 weeks and I have high hematocrit / red blood cells / blood pressure issues. These three issues are actually all linked. I was considering stopping to avoid any stroke / death.
The easy solution is to give blood. But I got rejected from every medical center because of my values (they have a small device to check the blood cells count)
Last cycle I could give blood (~1 pint / 500 mL) and it has solved everything. I felt better and everything (pressure, BPM, hematocrit, etc.) went down to normal.
So.... I decided to do that myself. So I will find a way to bleed myself safely. One pint (500 mL) is not that much. I have not the whole meterial to do a real self-phlebotomy, its complicated and I would be affraid to bring a air bubbles in the blood stream or to have a non-sterile device.
But I had an idea. I googled it and did not find anything about it, so it looks like I am the first steroid user ever to think about that. So maybe this is wrong and stupid. Or maybe it's great. You will judge.
So... : sometimes I can have nosebleed that last a long time. What it I force a nosebleed and let it bleed for a long time in a container that has a scale to know how much you have lost? The nose is full of blood vessels that are fragiles.
But not a normal nosebleed. I was thinking about :
1) taking aspirin so the blood will flows better
2) put ethanol in my nose to kill every bacteria/virus
3) taking a needle and puncture inside the nose, both side
4) wait in the shower with the container to collect blood
5) repeat every x days to keep hematocrit in check
What do you think ? Smart ? Crazy ? Stupid ? Not doable ?
