Hi Holbrook,

Make sure you drink minimum of 64 ounces of water taking Hydroxyurea to flush toxins. Also, make sure you see dermatologist as it makes us more prone to skin cancers.

You can go on Chemocare.com, print Hydroxyurea pages. My hematologist gave me this data.

Best wishes, Eileen

Thank you for the helpful tips on hydration and prevalence of skin cancer. Also appreciate the link for Hydroxurea information. I see it is a Cleveland Clinic site, but my CCF doctor did not tell me about it.
