What are treatments for myelofibrosis?

When PROCRIT became ineffective for me, I was switched to ARANESP. I also received REBLOZYL The ARANESP was given to me every two weeks, and the REBLOZYL was given to me every three weeks. They made a big difference in my HBG count. Since starting with the OJJAARA pill every day, my CBC's (knock on wood), have been virtually normal and I haven't needed either of them.

Hi @snakebite,

If you do not mind my asking, did you have any symptoms when you were diagnosed with myelofibrosis at age 60? I read through what you posted and see that you are around 77 now. And that is without a bone marrow transplant I believe. Great to hear! How many years after diagnosis was your spleen found to be enlarged? When did your symptoms develop?
Thanks for sharing and hope your day is going well.
