Are Others With Well-managed ET Considering Getting A Covid Booster Shot This Fall?
A myMPNteam Member asked a question 💭

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.

A myMPNteam Member asked a question 💭

🌟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.

Said they’re tested to be safe and thankfully non- Covid… read more

My Husband Has Jak2 ET.COVID Question
A myMPNteam Member asked a question 💭

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

Alcapella - Has your LDH gone down? As I said earlier I had been at 1,450 and stayed high for quite a while. After taking Jakafi for a while it lowered at one point to under 700 - it has been in a… read more

Why Are Doctors So Reluctant To Use The Word Cancer In MPNs Or To Dismiss Quality Of Of Life Impact?
A myMPNteam Member asked a question 💭

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.

When Do You Know It Is Time To Up Treatment From Daily Asprin To Hydrea Or Other Treatment Options?
A myMPNteam Member asked a question 💭

Diagnosed ET, JAK2, PLT966 WBC11.6, hematocrit 44.9. These are all trending up each lab.

I am 44 and considered low risk as i have never had a stroke but i do have symptoms including mild pain in left side, some tingling in my arms and feet on occasion, headaches, occasional blurred vision more than usual, night sweats, tinnutis, fatigue and very mild fibrosis in the bones. I wonder if my ET is becoming PV too with my numbers.

If you don’t have a MPN specialist, I would try to find one. They are the experts on MPN and they wouldn’t be able to tell you if you are progressing to PV
