I’m losing hair too and am upset about it. Just 3X a week now and it has that bad of side effect? Also tiny brown spots like sun spots on my skin. I hope it stops 😩

I was off Hydrea for 3 months, stomach upset from painkillers for bruised muscle, during that time my hair begun to grow back + best of all my blood levels were within the normal range, so Dr said I didn't need a prescription for Hydrea. I was so relieved, was called back to clinic for the usual run of bloods a month ago, my platelets were quite elevitated so prescribed hydrea 3 per week again. Now after 4 weeks taking them, hair is beginning to fall out again. My next appointment is this coming Tuesday so I'll have to check if
alternative non chemo tabs can be prescribed???🙄😬
