Has anybody experienced or heard of memory issues or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) as a side effect from taking hydroxyurea?

Hi @tresman10, you'll notice that I moved your message to this existing discussion about hydroxyurea and ET. I did this so that you can connect with fellow members like @huronshores @claire39 @pearly @mjpm2406 @texastee59 @cblowers1 and others.

According to this article by Mayo Clinic confusion and seeing, hearing,or feeling thigs that are not there are listed as rare effects.

Tresman, do you suspect that the treatment may be mimicking the symptoms of mild cognitive impairment?
