Blood Work

I got my blood work back and everything mostly checks out.

Only 3 things stuck out.

1. My hemoglobin count was high but I attribute this to me being a smoker of 17 years. I guess it really is time to quit that.

2. My lymphocyte count was in the high range but not abnormal. This is most likely due to the PS up-regulating the immune system. This leads to other explanations as I have not gotten sick since starting this while everyone around me has gotten the flu.

3. My calcium levels were high but not abnormal. This one is likely due to the allantoin as it increases the rate of cellular remodeling, including bone.

I am on chantix now to quit smoking; wish me luck. I will get another set of tests done in May and compare.

  1. If I were you, I would be getting regular hormone checks via saliva samples. Much better indicator of cortisol and other such hormones than blood work. There are many labs that will allow you to do an at home sample and send it in for analysis.

  3. Hope the smoking is getting better. I went to a place in Costa Mesa, and for $399, got hypnotized. That was in May of 2011 and so far so good. The cravings were still there but not as severe as when attempting to quit before.
    Wish someone would devise one chemical that could be used with a DMSO carrier that wouldn't affect the body and just break-down the DHT. Probably dreaming.
