Guest guest Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 I give blood often for verious tests and sometimes the blood comes out very dark. When my health is better it seems to be a lighter color, more red, when I feel less well, the blood seems darker. Anyone have any thoughts on this I seem to be getting enought oxygen, is it possible a breeding up of blood bacteria? Jimd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Jim Having cfs- often the talk is we have very thick blood. I do know from my own experience there were times when my pulse was very strong and I just thought it was trying to pump sludge around my body not blood. I would look carefully at platelets clumping internally maybe as a leading contributor to this.,Egs. blood looks good platelet counts 250 to 300 blood looks bad platelets arounfd the 200 maybe even 150 mark - possably clumping internally(intravascular coagulation). > > I give blood often for verious tests and sometimes the blood comes out > very dark.
