Where might I find info on how to approach elevated red blood cells? NP says it’s likely from fumes (auto repair mechanic, so that makes sense). Can’t change professions, but might be able to mitigate damage. I’m learning so much, yet despite how much I learn, I feel like I’ve only learned how much I still need to learn!
If your body is making more red cells due to low oxygen levels due to carbon monoxide irreversibly binding with RBCs and taking them out of commission, that really isn’t something you can or should “turn off” with an herb. Your body is doing exactly what it’s supposed to do.
The best solution would be to remove the problem your body is responding to with better ventilation and fresh air in the shop. :0)
Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
That makes so much sense! I was just in the cardio part 1 portion of the school yesterday after posting, so I feel like a smartypants that I understand your response lol. We are going to have those levels checked again at the end of summer (we keep everything open in the summer). Might be a function of cold Indiana winters and us not having the doors open. Thank you…I know this is probably elementary, but gotta start somewhere I guess! I’m grateful our bodies are doing what they’re supposed to!  You have no idea how grateful I am for this school. Sitting here with gratitude rolling down my cheeks! I believe I might be feeling hope again (been a very long time). Thank you again for your servant leadership!
