Doctor wants me to start Hydrea
I am 44 years old. I was diagnosed with ET 3 years ago. My platelet count had been pretty steady at around 700, sometimes it would spike to mid 700s or up to as high as 800. My last visit was 846 and the Doctor began to panic a little bit. She wanted me to start Hydrea 500mg 3 times a week to get things

I was just wondering if anyone here has eaten fennel seeds before and can verify this. I am looking for ways

Scared and Frustrated
The beginning of February i thought i had the beginnings of maybe a stomach bug. Bloating, gas, sudden urge and need to use the bathroom.... only nothing would come, just mucus and very very small amounts if unformed fluff. This continued till I noticed i hadn't had a real movement for nearly two weeks

Who has had cataract surgery with a bleb?
So as is the way with this condition, you cruise for a while then your eyes decide they do not wish to play ball! So basically I’ve been noticing a decrease in clarity with my right eye. The Glaucoma clinic doesn’t think I’m an urgent case so I’m waiting till November where I will see a nurse 😒.
