Talk to Me About My Blood Labs

Specifically my hemoglobin level being at 18.2 and my hematocrit level being at 54.4.

I went donate blood yesterday to help lower those numbers, and I have doctors orders to donate every two weeks.

Now I'm aware that these are caused by the doctor prescribed test I was taking, and I've since lowered the dosage myself even though the doctor is still prescribing me the same amount as before. I have more blood work in a couple weeks to see if things are getting better or staying the same.

Some of you may recall a while back I had bloodwork done and I shot up the evening before my labs, and because my test levels were so high, doc told me to cut out the test completely until my appointment with him. I was off of it for about three weeks and my test was at 229 last monday. So obviously I took a shot after that blood work, but only took 100mg instead of the prescribed 200mg.

So my question (777) is this: besides avoiding foods high in iron, and donating blood, what are steps I can take to keep those two levels within the normal range while still taking the prescribed amount of test?

ETA: I've started taking my astragalus root, milk thistle, and citrus bergamot again, and have bottles of carditone and nattokinase on order because I'm currently out of those.
