Hi Mary,

There was one person with aplastic anemia who, after treatment, had a higher red cell count. I know he was on testosterone to help boost his counts so that played a big factor in it. But from time to time, his red cells would get up to 18. I believe it all leveled out after a while. I don't remember what they did, if anything, for it though.

Sorry can't be more help.

Marlene
