Hang in there, cathy8! It seems some people respond very quickly to HU, while others do not.

I'm a strong advocate for HU, because it's made me feel so much better. But even after 18 months, my oncologist's still trying to find my optimal dose, because my platelet count's stuck in the 600s.

We'll get there!
