Some times I feel better when my blood is thick and takes up to a hour to take 500 out but then sometimes I feel worse for a day or two.Funny as I feel better a hour after the procedure for a couple hrs.Are you taking any hydroxyurea.I am and wondering if I could just get blood drops.How often do you have your blood drops.

After reading @chadknudson post in November I decided to watch carbs cut out most potatoes pasta and bread also watched my sugar intake. In December my Hemocrit was at 45.4 I felt it was good enough to not do a Phlobotamy they thought differently. At the end of my appointment they raised my hemocrit goal to 47 so no Phlobotamy Dec or Jan Feb my hemocrit was at 46.7. March they will probably be taking blood. Yes I feel better changed jobs from shift work to straight day shift. Lots of good info on this site definitely helps make living with pv easier.
