Do you track platelet counts during long cycles?

Yes platelets are on every mid cycle CBC for me.

Tracked them after seeing hematocrit creep up

I check CBC every 8 12 weeks on long cycles

Platelets stayed normal while HCT climbed

Only noticed issues on very long blasts

Seen guys crash platelets with overdoing blood donation

Never ignore platelets during extended use

Mine actually dropped mid cycle

Tracking helped time my donations better

Platelets often change before symptoms show

Long cycles more frequent labs for me.

It’s one of the most overlooked markers

I skipped once and regretted it

Platelets plus viscosity tells the full story
