Has happened a few times.Any advice on whats happening. I can see my Dr till December

Dyspnea is a known adverse effect of HU. It sounds like you may have exceeded your maximum tolerable dose. The level of exercise intolerance you are describing should be brought to your doctor's attention ASAP. You do not need an appointment to receive a response to a new adverse effect.
