@sarahgault I use to take Hydroxyurea. I do know that one of the side effects is flu-like symptoms, and also fatigue. Also, it disrupted my sleep. My side effects would come in waves. I no longer take Hydroxyurea because it caused my ET symptoms to be worse. I am now on Besremi.

@sunshine1983 Hi there! I tried HU for a month and by the end I was in so much pain with fevers and chills that I had to stop. How hard was it to get on Besremi and how are you tolerating that?
