Giving Blood on cycle w/ High BP

As of recently on this cycle I have noticed my BP is higher than it normally is, normally even on cycle I am around 110/70, but recently it has been 130/70 and often as high as 160/100. My current cycle was Test E 600 mg/wk, Tren A 300 mg/wk, Winny 75 mg/day (been off of this for about 3-4 weeks), and a test and tren no ester 100 and 75 mg respectively 2x a week for a preworkout. I'm worried that if my bp spikes the day I go to give blood (above 180/100) then I will not be able to give blood. In a recent blood test to check liver function I had a hemocrit around 50. So would it be safe/acceptable to pop like a Viagra/cialus (misspelled that I am sorry) before giving blood. I did read on the redcross site that if you take BP meds it doesn't disqualify you. So, in your honest opinion is this a safe option?

I hope you are aware a CRIT of 50% in no way mandates blood donation!

More importantly, a BP of 160/100 warrants TREATMENT which should be optimized BEFORE you donate blood.

Thank you for the input, I do know my father suffers from hypertension.

IMO opinion it's a good habit to donate every 8 weeks while on. Viagra and Cialis are not OTC, but there are several chem co's that can get to you within a few days without script. They will help somewhat, but are not a cure-all for hbp

I would just use them to get my BP down to an acceptable range to give blood. The thing is I have been using accutane so I am technically unable to give blood. But if you call you can get your blood thrown out if you are 'experiencing fly like symptoms'

Grab your rats the liquid research version. It will help for the short term.

Is there a danger in donating with bp 160/100? Obviously He should be managing his bp. Im wondering why you say he should do this before donating?

The only time my BP was 100 they would not allow me to donate blood. Most donation places have limits as to what they'll accept for BP.

It can be harmful to the person donating Red Cross told me.. the lady pissed me off by making me read this long ass packet full of bullshit infor before taking my vitals .. then when she did it was like 155 over 105 cuz I was upset .. she was cool and let me chill for 10 minutes and re took it and it dropped
 
I told her you pissed me off by coming up to me and making me feel stupid infront of everyone for not reading your faggot ass packet like drink water and eat cookies from the Virgin Mary herself after donating .. I'm still pissed about that shit I think I should go handle that
 
Just took my BP, it was 160/110! Can I buy Viagra OTC?

My BP has been borderline high for a while. So when I'm on cycle, I do my best to be as proactive as I can...

A low dose of Cialis has helped tremendously. I have included more conditioning work through the week than I once did too so I am sure that's helped too.
 
To tell you the truth I donated when my hemoglobin was 17.0 and 54 days later I donated again and my hemaglobin was 18.1 .. I don't know how much your RBC will drop if you are STILL juicing
 
I had a hemocrit around 50.
often as high as 160/100.
Test E 600 mg/wk, tren A 300 mg/wk, Winny 75 mg/day (
Get that hematocrit down brother.If you can't bring it down to 45 by donating, and you most likely can't, see a doctor. I have a prescribed blood drop of 500ml if mine goes over 48. You are more susceptible to stroke, pulmonary embolism or MI if you do nothing. That will help bring your bp down.

The winstrol and tren are most likely the main culprits as far as bp. Have you tested kidney function? I can't use either anymore for that reason.

I have certainly been lazy with the cardio as of late!!! Its been about a month since I've done cardio due to the tren. Thats certainly going to change.
