I haven’t read all the reply’s, maybe you have a good answer. You could always just order a bunch of blood work, it would take longer but get the job done. Also need to find out why it’s high.
I know it’s been a while since you wrote this, but I’m interested in whether you were capable of achieving what you set out to do. I mean, if you bought the phlebotomy kit and did everything on your own. I’m having the same problem and am considering taking a phlebotomy course to avoid messing up everything. I mean, I’m a messy person, so doing that will be beneficial to me. Because 25% of students choose online phlebotomy classes I’ve heard that many theoretical courses provide online classes, so I’ll want to take advantage of that. As a result, I’d be grateful if you could share your experience. Thank you so much in advance!
Oh man. Have I got a story for you!

Goodlord!
Sanelb,
I was wondering if you had any luck with getting phlebotomies. I know this post was old, so I'm sorry about that.
Just like you - I also use Defy, and I am also given the run around whenever I try getting phlebotomized due to high Hematocrit/RBC/Hemoglobin.
Some guy here "HanktheTank" says he does it all himself and dumps the blood out into a huge pan. But still - he's in Europe so the medical standards & politics are way too different to even consider that route. (Sounds dangerous). But if Hank is happy and successfull - God Bless him!
Sanelb - I need the same help you do. Please don't hesitate to contact/DM me.
