Side Effects
I began taking this October '04, started fine, but then had right leg heaviness where it got to bad that if I was standing I could not move for a few seconds, and had to really think about moving my leg. I also had bad aniexty issues; and I would mention these things to my hemotologist and she would insist it's not from the medication. After seeing a neurologist he recommended me to see a rheumatologist who finally saw my point and sent to letter to my hemotologist to change the medication. In April 05 after 1 day of changing to hydroxurea I encountered 6 bouts of 'cardiac insufficiencies (heart attacks), damaged the heart, but because of my age (49), a stent was not recommended. So I had a single bypass done this past August. My cardiologist insist that it's my platelets, whereas my hemotologist insist that there was existing damage in the heart area. I don't have cholosteral, blood pressure, no smoking, or drinking, diabetic, or other heart problems. So I was and still angry t
