Hi,

Good luck with that.
Please cosider Hydrea drug 2-3 tablets daily, 500mg. Possibly 3 daily if it gets worst and keep seeing pathology for blood tests to keep checking your levels.
Get your doctor to organise this, please, before it rises any further. Surprised the Doctor
has not moved in this direction.

All the best.

Teech64,
I cannot imagine starting on 2-3 Hydroxy a day, I had daily headaches taking I am now taking 500 mg every other day and headaches are less. Hope to be able to continue that dosage. I am also on a blood thinner for AFib.
Of course, everyone is different but I feel your body needs to adjust to Hydroxy. Eileen
