Mid Cycle Blood work question

ad

I am 31 years old, 220 lbs 18% BF. Been lifting for two years and this is my second cycle. First cycle was about one year ago: 500mg/wk Test-E 12 weeks Anavar 50mg ED weeks 1-6. On cycle running Aromasin 12.5mg ED and HCG 500iu/wk. Got my blood test 6 weeks into cycle and had:
Total test (serum) = 4131 (range 350-1200)
LH <0.2 (range 1.7-8.6)
FSH <0.2 (1.5-12.4)
Estradiol 37.5 (range 7.6-42.6)
All other bloods normal

This time around been running Test Prop 750mg/wk (injecting EOD) for 6 weeks. Aromasin at 12.5mg/day for first 4 weeks. Ran HCG 1000iu/day for 4 days before test (due to atrophy). Also, Injected prop 24 hours before my blood work. Been feeling that high E feeling (bloat, high bp) since week 4 so increased Aromasin to 25mg/day. Not running any orals or other juice. Had bloodwork this thursday and got results today:
Total test (serum) = 5026 (range 350-1200)
LH <0.2 (range 1.7-8.6)
FSH <0.2 (1.5-12.4)
Estradiol 59.8 (range 7.6-42.6)
HDL 32 (>39 is ideal)
LDL 96 (0-100 normal range)
LDL/HDL 3.0 (lower than average risk for CHD
Also noticed hematocrit and RBC are a little above normal. All other bloods normal.

The main differences between the two blood tests are:
1) Running Test-P at 750 mg/week and inject 24 hours before test (last cycle was test e 500/wk 2x weekly)
2) This time around I got aromasin from a new source (possibly bunk or under dose)
3) I ran high HCG (1000iu/day) four days leading up to test

Given this information I see having two options.

1) Stop cycle completely and start PCT in 5 days when Prop is out of system
2) Continue cycle with leftover aromasin from last cycle (known to be good) and dial in until bloodwork is within good ranges. Start donating blood to reduce hematocrit and RBC numbers.

I have two questions:

1) Given this information do you recommend stopping cycle or continuing and dialing in?
2) Could this high E thing be from the HCG injections so close to bloodwork time?
3) Any thoughts or recomendations?

Thanks for any help!

Hitting hcg six Weeks in to plump up the boys. Will start hitting hcg 2x weekly @ 500iu until end of cycle. I don't really get bad e2 symptoms, just flush feeling, high bp, and slightly lethargic
