Whole blood will normally drop me 3 to 5% and the one time I did dbl red it dropped from 56 to 48(hct).
Damn right I'm going to get paid if I have to sit there for 2 hours at a time. I did it in college for a bit for some extra cash. I'd never do it again. I wouldn't use it as a means to lower RBCs, even though it might lower it slightly.
Yeah, if it's 3-5% every 56 days bs 1% every 10, then factor in you're going to make more RBC especially if you're on something like Andro...it's probably a wash at best. I'd rather just show up, get drained, leave and forget about it for 3 months.
