HAEMATOCRIT

I am not sure whether I got the right forum for this. I have AF and I take Rivaroxaban. Can the anticoagulant be making my high red cell count worse or will it help? My Haematocrit count is 54 now and was 53 for the last few months. I am a 69 year old male and also have CKD3. Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction for this?

hi

There is a forum for AF which I am on too- haven't seen this question asked or answered before but worth posting on there to see.
