We play pickleball 3-4 times a week. Maybe once every 2-3 months, I (71M) get dizzy and winded from the hydroxyurea (1000 mg/day). My platelets have been in the normal range, but my red blood cells and hemoglobin are pretty low.

I could use a little understanding - maybe from some people with similar side effects....?

Thanks for reading 😄

UPDATE : Kind people, thank you very much for all the thoughtful responses – I feel better 😄!

With respect to hydroxyurea side effects, I have it really good and I am thankful… and it’s really nice to get a little sympathy/encouragement. Be well and hang in there.

I’ve never really warmed to Turgeman….but his hold up ball against two defenders made the Carlos Gil goal which put the Revs on the front foot for the win.
Pretty big play by the forward…

One of my favorite moments: York got behind Vladar, got his stick flat on the goal line, then he (and the team) muscled the puck out for a whistle
