I’m on Jakafi 5mg to start out.
Blood work done once a week to monitor on the Jakafi is working.

I'm just starting on Jakafi and am anxious about the side effects and the necessity of taking Acyclovir with it (Herpes med).
Have phlebotomies helped or is that procedure stopped?
Had done them along with Hydroxyurea for PV for previous 3 months before bone density/aspiration showed early detection of Myelofibrosis. TET2 + ASXl1 determined.
