@sstackho I was diagnosed 2 years ago and would not take the Hydrox. Until 2 months ago my count went up to over 1 million! After 2 months of the med I am down to the 500’s. The meds make me very tired which I hate cause I am very active. I will turn 80 in December. Also I now have to be on iron meds due to this disease.

I take 1000 each night after my evening meal. I don't wait till bedtime as I always drink a good bit of water with them.
