Anagrelide in UK and in the USAš±
I asked at the hospital pharmacy whether
Anagrelide
could be to blame, as I half remember reading that it could cause a thinning of the surface membranes within the body. I was also under the impression that the USA had discontinued using
Anagrelide
, and wondered why.

Itching for answers....
A bit fed up with the numerous side effects of HU (Peripheral Neuropathy, Actinic Keratosis, Mouth ulcers, Pruritis, Erythromalalgia, flaking/splitting nails, anaemia, tiredness, shortness of breath, ) I looked at switching to
Anagrelide
but made no change as many 'side effects' seem to be common - or

Effect of Covid on Platelets
Iāve had thrombocythaemia for many years and itās been well controlled initially by Hydroxycarbamide and in more recent years by Hydroxycarbamide and
Anagrelide
together. At the beginning of September I developed covid and tested positive over a period of twenty days.

Anagrelide heart palpitations/pounding
I started taking Angerlide a few weeks ago and still take 1 Hydrea a day. The only side effect I have noticed is the feeling of my heart pounding. Does this symptom go away over time? Should I get my heart checked? Has it effected anyones physical activity as well? I like to workout but don't want to

Painkiller advice for Anagrelide headaches.
Started Anagralide 7 days ago, & took horrendous headache today. Took Solpadeine Max, & this helped, but only to be used for 3 days, & are expensive. Can my GP give me strong painkillers, or should I jut stick with Solpadeine? Would Paracetamol maybe help? Again thank you for any response.

Medication
instead of 1000g today they said my hemocrite is still a bit low ,so I now have to take 500 g of hydroxycarbamide for 5 days and none on weekend and next appointment in 6 weeks and if it's still low but platelets increase then I may have to change from hydroxycarbamide I am concerned if they offer me

Doctors opinion ā¦.
Anyway, after a month on peg interferon (45mcg) plus one
Anagrelide
per day my platelets have fallen to 188 from around 600. White cell count to 4.5 from 9.3. So have been told to stop the
Anagrelide
, carrying on with same dose of peg and EPO. Other counts ok or very slightly higher than normal.

Tolerant to Hydrea, giving Pegasys another try....
But we want to try Pegasys again before
Anagrelide
. When starting pegasys, did anyone notice side effects right away? Is anyone on
Anagrelide
and has the same mutation as me? Feeling a little defeated, like I'm back at square one. Dealing with a lot of fatigue and dizziness.

Risks of Pegasus?
At present I take 500mg Hydroxy and 4Ć0.5
Anagrelide
daily. My platelet count is 660 and slowly rising. I asked my consultant about changing to Pegasys but she said that interferons are not advised for the over-60s. Is this right? Why would my age make any difference?

Anagrelide
My MPN specialist is considering starting me in
Anagrelide
for side effects (headaches, vision disturbances,, Etc). Has anyone had any luck with
Anagrelide
helping your side effects? Iāve seen an ophthalmologist and Neurologist just to verify noting more serious. Thanks in advance.

What to do ā¦.
Iām also still taking one
Anagrelide
capsule per day, and aspirin. So far I have very few MF symptoms , apart from the fibrosis, which he said the
Anagrelide
Iāve been on for several years could have contributed to.
