Is It A Symptom Or Stress?
A myMPNteam Member asked a question đź’­

Hello all, let's starts by saying how grateful I am for this group. I enjoy knowing I can go here and ask questions with overwhelming and writing my own family.

Bone Pain Vs. Regular Aches/pain
A myMPNteam Member asked a question đź’­

I have well-managed ET with minor symptoms. I have seen others talk about “bone pain” and I’m not sure exactly what that means. Is it the same as joint pain (knee/wrist/etc.)? Or is it something else - such as sharp pains in long bones like the arm (radius) or thigh (femur)? Can someone please describe it in more detail for me & explain how it was diagnosed, and what your doctor suggested for relief ? ~ Thanks!

Is There A Way, A Test, Blood Test, Etc. To Find Out When We Actually Acquired Our MPN, And/or When It Activated Itself?
A myMPNteam Member asked a question đź’­

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?🤔
