I have no trouble getting blood out when I have tests. Yet I have too many platelets and red cells, a condition of my bone marrow which produces too many. The only time I had trouble getting blood out was when I had a poor
technician who didn't do it well.

I never heard of stuff hiding in the thick blood. I do think the Swank diet for MS (low saturated fat) may help you if you have thick blood by possibly keeping your arteries clearer?

Dr. Swank thought that MS blood particles stuck together and moved less swiftly than those of normal blood. So what relationship that has to this...who knows?
