Your platelets are not especially high at 556. If and when you decide to take Hydroxyurea I would suggest you ask to start at a lower dose than two 500 mg a day.
My hematologist started me at one daily and then I went on one every other day.
Best wishes, Eileen

500mg twice a week ( every three days ) as per Doctor.
I will consider if I start to experience symptoms and my platlet count continues to rise.
