Hi, Lynnevb, I am curious as to why you went on hydrea after being on aspirin only for 11 previous years? I have ET with JAK2 and have been on aspirin only for the past 2 years. My platelets range in the mid 500s. However, I am nearly 83, and prefer not to take chemo therapy at this age. I Did your platelets start to rise? And, if I may ask, how high were your platelets when you decided to start the hydrea?
