my vein I'm doing about 200 cc's of blood every three to four weeks or um if I can do it more regularly I would probably aim for 50 to 60 CC's per week
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
for the majority of the time since the last blood draw in August I've actually been doing phlebotomy so I've been going to a practitioner who will just take my blood and then we just give it to plants or throw it out so essentially bleeding um out of my vein I'm doing about 200 cc's of blood every three to four weeks or um if I can do it more regularly I would probably aim for 50 to 60 CC's per week now I don't have hemochromatosis but if you look at my blood work and I'll go back to that in a moment my ferritin was creeping up my iron saturation was creeping up and my transfer and my transference saturation was creeping up
I've been doing phlebotomy so this means I essentially drain a little bit of blood every week
I've been doing phlebotomy so this means I essentially drain a little bit of blood every week... I do my own blood draws so every week stick a needle in my vein usually right there and I drain out 50 to 60 cc's of blood
as you can see my ferritin I'll show you the ferritin levels have gone down significantly with that process and interestingly and this is really the first time that I'm able to share this on blood work my shpg has now also gone down to the lowest levels that I've had perhaps since I've been checking it in the last four to five years
doing regular photomy has helped me get mine from as high as 332 down to now 69 it's been even lower than that at 50 or 30s in the past
