Bad news last time at the doc office,
the doctor told me that I suffer from pmf primary myelofibrosis with low risk asymptomatic and treatment for it later is Jakavi (ruxolitinib).
There is a disagreement. Another doc wants to re examine and to have another bone marrow aspiration

Hi @mahmoudbakry. Sometimes diagnosing a blood condition can be like unraveling a complicated mystery with an overabundance of suspects. You’re giving your doctors a good run with their sleuthing skills!

So, one doctor feels you have myelofibrosis. Another doctor disagrees and wants more testing. Has that doctor discussed another theory?
