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 #

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?

Time of taking Hydroxyurea
Hi Can you please tell me what time do you take
Hydroxyurea
? One haematologist yesterday told me I should take it in the morning empty stomach for it to work better!

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?

how to get off amiodrone
The reason is I have a blood disorder and take
hydroxyurea
. I have developed excrutiating debilitating venous ulcers on my legs and heel which the
hydroxyurea
is preventing from healing and have to stop taking the
hydroxyurea
and change to another medicine as soon as possible.

Hair thinning
I have been taking
hydroxyurea

Pegasys side effects
I was switched from 500
Hydroxyurea
/day to 90mg Pegasys every two weeks. The pain in hips and thighs is substantial - headache also, but not as bothersome as the muscle pain. Has anyone else experience this on Pegasys. Also, has anyone tried CoQ10 for muscle pain and has it work? Thanks

what if I stop taking hydroxyurea?
Dr put me on
hydroxyurea
(2 tablets daily) . Before this I was only on aspirin for seven years with ET. Today I saw Dr. again . My platelets are 1100. Days asked me to continue taking
hydroxyurea
, but I am afraid of this drug. As it’s highly toxic.

PV fatigue
I have just started Pegasys interferon after failed treatments of phlebotomies and
Hydroxyurea
. My fatigue since diagnosis and treatments starting 2021 is all consuming. I don’t know how to deal or cope with the tiredness, lack of energy, and overall feeling unwell.

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.
