After getting 3 blood clots in my right leg I was tested and tested positive for PV. I too have had Xrays,but also worked at a antenna plant for a year and was exposed to radiation one day and thought nothing of it. Also was once in a urainium mine on a tour.So maybe that's the cause.Have had PV for about 2 years and now getting used.Good Luck.

I have had pv for 3 years dr did a bone marrow biopsy cause red count was going up. I searched on line for cure and found that pv is rare and no none cure but perhaps
bone marrow trans plant but consider that instead of helping it could make things worse.
