Hi Lori, thanks for your words of encouragement, I appreciate it very much.
I will be back and report back on results. I am just really questioning the use of HU and the side effects mainly on my endurance at high elevation, eg the reduction in HG and Red blood cells. Hopefully , I am responding well and my number will come down and the dosage will be adjusted.

Thanks everyone

Hi, had bmbtwo days ago went pretty smmoth,and blood work back; plts down 107k to 532k from 639 after 3 weeks on HU, also rbc, wbc, and hct down a bit to by 4%.

Will have more blood down in 24th formy follow up for bmb. Feeling much better overall, but some days are harder than others. Still have numbness/ tingling in feet.
