Are you trying to lower hematocrit levels?


Yes. Was at high 17s. Supposed to be going to 15.

Will probably stop at my natural level which is 15.5ish


No doctor here, but you are probably referring to hemoglobin/RBC levels, as hematocrit is a % that falls around 45-52% for normal levels.

Sorry. I was half dead earlier.

Yes.

Hematocrit levels were 53.5 and then 53.8 at day of first draw.

She sent over an order to get my minimum hemoglobin level to 15.

Hemoglobin only dropped the aforemention amount after two donactions. While they did not disclose hematocrit levels, my hemoglobin remains high enough that I could continue donating.
