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

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 💭

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.
