Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have polycythemia. You should go for bone marrow examination and jak 2 mutation study. Aspirin and hydroxyurea is given in treatment of polycythemia vera. Phlebotomy is a simple and cost effective treatment to maintain hematocrit. Ultimate treatment is stem cell transplantation or chemotherapy. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
