🌟Anyone familiar with this
Says it’s a revolutionary specialized treatment for chronic infections, cancer, blood disorders, vitality, longevity, etc.
Apparently, many ppl do this worldwide for multiple reasons.
Reports say no known reported side effects and safe for all ages.
🌟I’m quoted it’s about $8,000 total, told the stem cells last for your life and they’re from umbilical cord blood with NO DNA from healthy babies and mothers
Said they’re tested to be safe and thankfully non- Covid… read more
Tatiana, I was only sharing my single person experience. I'll add, I was quite sick when I had Covid.
The trial for immunity measured 52 different 'proteins', antibodies related to sars covib2..And… read more
My husband has Jak2 ET. He’s currently sick w/COVID for 2nd time in a month. Took Paxlovid and symptoms got better. Now sick and positive again. Is ET considered an immunocompromised disorder? Seems regular docs don’t know a lot about ET.
Dear Debra,
Some doctors tend to minimise risks and use absolute terms. In absolute terms, someone with ET only and without treatment might not fit the bill of being immunocompromised if by… read more

I use beetroot in my juices plus I really enjoy beetroot

I noticed that both my hematologists avoid to use the word cancer when talking to me. When I got the diagnosis, the hematologist downplayed ET so much, despite the fact that I was in fever, pain and had so much brain fog I had to take a nap during the appointment. All these are ET symptoms, but apparently not for my doctor. So I was fine in his eyes. Being young was the reason
This was very detrimental as my partner thought and still thinks that ET is a bit like a headache, nothing scary, and… read more
Hi, Genette. I've gained about 13 lbs. However, I will not go off of Jakafi, as it keeps me going one day at a time.
Many of us myself included have said we noticed changes in our bodies and self and symptoms long before we were actually diagnosed.
This bothers me bc I want and need to know, as do we all.
It’s wrong to go by the date we were diagnosed.
Anyone? Thoughts?🤔
Depending on the type of mutation you have, you can sometimes distinguish between inherited and spontaneous, as well as using VAF % between different testings (it is good to repeat the genetic testing… read more
I have PV JAK 2 positive. My numbers have not gotten too high. I get pins and needles itching and and I’m tired. At work I have issues with instant recall of new laws and procedures.
Thank you Tta, this list of symptoms really helps.
I had two Pfizer vaccine shots in the spring of 2021, a booster in Nov. of 2021 - and then actually had a very mild case of Covid this past summer (2022). I get a flu shot every fall and I’m in general good health so am not sure I need another Covid booster at this point. So I’m curious what others are doing.
Nope never had the first one as was still trying ti determine what was wrong . Then the clots started on people with shots already had clots
I'm like 7up never had it never will its gene therapy not… read more
I'm on pegasys 135 since December and after an initial drop, my counts are back to their initial levels
Despite my mpn consultant, which is abroad, told my hemae to just wait at leat 6 months to see how it goes, my docs here (I live in a different country) are rushing to conclude the treatment is not effective, and don't want to wait as told them
They are thinking to escalate to 180 for the next two months, and if nothing happens, drop it and then they said that based on current research… read more
I am not sure where "here" is, but it is a universal truth that assertive patients receive higher quality care. Passive patients do not. This is true everywhere. We have to be educated about our… read more
I've had many injuries throughout my life and have many aches and pains due to past injuries from playing sports, working or whatever. How the heck do I know if pain is from ET or what.
Tatiana
Your comments resonate with me. After work ups by cardiologist, pulmonologist, various imaging for my heart and lungs, no one can explain my shortness of breath, so I owe it up to the… read more
Dr. Fleischman is looking for families with multiple cases of MPN's and/or an MPN and other cancers. She is hoping to have some family members participate who do not have an MPN - or another type of cancer - and also have family members who have say skin or other cancer but not an MPN. She will send you everything you need to participate. All you have to do to is give the vial to someone doing your next blood draw so you can send them a blood sample in the all postage paid envelope and submit… read more
