Besemi Dosage?
I am waiting for a call back to discuss this; I am assuming I will continue on the
hydroxyurea
initially and taper off as I increase the Besemri. Any advice is welcome. #Besemri #

Is it the JAK2 mutation, the ET itself, or is it the
hydroxyurea
that I take that causes it? Thank you!

Hydroxyurea and Low White Blood Cell Count
My doctor is recommending to cut down the
Hydroxyurea
to 500 mg on two of the days. I don't do well having phlebotomies, and really don't want to have to have one next month, so I only cut back the
Hydroxyurea
on one day. I am also concerned that my WBC is so low.

Fatigue
I’m on 500 mg
hydroxyurea
every second day. I’m wondering if anyone has had the fatigue pass, even if it’s temporary? I’m trying to figure out if this is the new normal for me.

Hydroxyurea and Anagrelide
Goid evening, I visited a local hematologist this week, not my MPN specialist, due to non coverage and he suggested trying combo of
Hydroxyurea
and Anagrelide. Has anyone used this combination for treatment of ET?

I will be transitioning from
hydroxyurea
, and wonder if others have experience with this. How long did it take after beginning Besremi for your blood counts to reach desired levels? How were the side-effects? Please let me know, and thanks for any replies.

Itchy feet and hands
I’m on
hydroxyurea
. I Don’t know if this has anything to do with it, but sometimes when I go to bed, the soles of my feet or the palms of my hands start itching continuously. Does anybody else have this problem?

radiation/chemotherapy
I have been on
hydroxyurea
for 7 years. I now have to have 5 weeks of chemo radiography for another condition which means stopping the hydroxy for 8 weeks. My haematologist has taken a sabbatical and I am awaiting the views of his replacement who I do not Know.

Open mouth sores on Besremi?
Hello community Besremi has been such a positive change for my husband who switch to it from
Hydroxyurea

ET JAK2
I take
hydroxyurea
and just had labs with my primary doctor. Liver and pancreas enzymes were elevated. My first thought was could medication be causing this, but I have been on it a couple of years now with no issues.

Droxia vs Hydrea
I've been treated with
Hydroxyurea
(hydrea) 500mg for PV since December 2021. Due to stomach issues in March 2023 the HU was decreased to every other day. I did fine on this dosage.

Macrocytosis
I take a baby aspirin and 500 mg
hydroxyurea
5 days a week. Along with that diagnosis, all kinds of wacky things come up in a category called "morphology." One is Macrocytosis.
