Red Blood Cell Count

[GangstaJDog]

I got some blood work done last week, and just like over last summer my red blood cell count is high, but this time it's even higher, presumably because I recently finished a cycle including some EQ. I don't know the exact value because I don't have a copy of the lab report yet, but two doctors were quoted as saying it was "extremely high" and warned me that it could be dangerous. I thought a high red blood cell count was good? Doesn't it deliver more oxygen to the muscle and isn't it normal and even ideal for bodybuilders to have a high red blood cell count?

too many red blood cells can lead to clotting and this is a know side of EQ that it increase the number of red blood cells. Also, if the clot happens in a vital organ you can get screwed up in a hurry
