Bladder or urinary problem taking HU

Posted by 1995victoria @1995victoria, Aug 24 9:46am

I seem to have developed a problem. Of course it could be old age, but thinking it could be from the HU also. Dr doesn't think so, but thought I'd ask the group if anyone developed an issue. Many thanks....

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Blood Cancers & Disorders Support Group.

Do you mean you cannot urinate? Have you discussed it with your doctor? I drink a lot of water because many patients recommend it. Thankfully the HU does not seem to affect it.

Not a problem urinating, I drink lots and just urine changed with taking HU. And rest assured I've discussed with Primary Dr, Oncologist, Gynecologist.....so just wondering if others on HU have noticed any changes.

Initially I did, but only for a couple of days.

This has not been my experience, but we all react differently!

Like eloise999, I do drink considerably more water than I used to, and so I do have more frequent urination. Nothing I would call a problem, though.

I am so sorry you're experiencing this, 1995victoria.
