Hello! I am a 50 year old male and have polycythemia vera. I’m considering trying a ketogenic diet and hoping it helps with my disorder. I’m wondering if you were taking Hydrea to treat your condition? If so, were you able to stop taking it?

I am not taking Hydrea -- at this time I'm just doing regular phlebotomies when my hematocrit reaches a certain target.
