More Multiple Sclerosis items happening. I have a Rare Condition which is making to many Red Blood Cells. MS, rare H63D Gene?, other genes involved.
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a peptide hormone that is produced naturally by the human body. EPO is released from the kidneys and acts on the bone marrow to stimulate red blood cell production.
An increase in red blood cells improves the amount of oxygen that the blood can carry to the body’s muscles.
Currently, October 2021 my EPO is working overtime. My Red Blood Count is high. The Bones are being over stimulated, of where the red blood cells are being made.
A cause for concern, as this is one of the causes of Thick Blood. Not supposed to happen.
The Red blood cells are to large for what needs to utilize them properly. I hope the following will help others understand that multiple sclerosis range in the blood also.
what-is-secondary-polycythemia
Secondary polycythemia, also known as secondary erythrocytosis or secondary erythrocythemia, is a rare condition in which your body produces an excess amount of red blood cells.
This overproduction of red blood cells thickens your blood. This thickened blood can’t pass through your small blood vessels like capillaries easily.
Secondary polycythemia is caused by some other condition in your body, usually the excess production of the hormone erythropoietin, or EPO. However, secondary polycythemia can be genetic like primary polycythemia but is not caused by a mutation in your bone marrow cells.

This talks about the EPO from the kidneys while making blood.
