That is definitely good counsel. Patients should ask for what they need and not tolerate being made to feel awkward if they feel that they want sedation.
I’m glad it went well for you. When will you be able to go over the results with your doc?

I have an appointment in a little over a week. I have already been diagnosed with ET with JAK2 V617F mutation. I am negative for BCR ABL1. My hematologist has started me on Aspirin and wants to start me on Hydroxyurea. I asked to wait to start it for a few weeks until I started the Aspirin as I suffer from GERD already. So this may make things more difficult as I have not been able to tolerate Aspirin in the past.
I am relieved to find this web page as I was feeling very alone in my diagnosis.
