are they recommending hydroxyurea, for your platelets? to stop the clots? I think Eliquis stops stickyness, but maybe not clot formation?????

Thank you for the note. Hydroxyurea has never been discussed with me by a doctor. But I have read about blood thinners that stop stickiness. I am working on a letter to my cardiologist to discuss stroke symptoms. If something interesting comes up, I will share it.
