@hanya I was diagnosed with MF, June 2025 after 30 years with ET. Presently, not taking meds—“wait and see”. Not awful side effects, but there. Stomach aches, headaches, fatigue, joint pain in one shoulder, just not feeling well! Like you said, hard to find out much about this rare disease anywhere! I pray your test results improve. Let’s stay in touch!

Hello I am glad you responded to my post , since I texted last , I was doing well for two weeks on
200 mgs of OJJAARA ! Suddenly I became very sick to my stomach and no medication help the nausea!! Could not keep anything down ! Stopped taking OJJAARA, for few days, then developed bad diarrhea! Was sick for six days ! Went to urgent care they tested me for everything under the sun !
All came back NEGATIVE!
As soon as I felt , I restarted lower dose 150 mgs of OJJAARA! It’s only been three days so I PRAY 🙏
I STAY GOOD ON THIS LOWER DOSE ! GOD KNOW I NEED THIS TO IMPROVE MY BLOOD 🩸 NUMBERS WHICH ARE EXTREMELY LOW , Below the minimum!
I HAD PV FOR MANY YEARS AND WAS GIVEN ALL REGULAR DRUGS TO STOP MY BONE MARROW FROM PRODUCING!!
I think HU AND JAKAFI ! Both brought my numbers
I was shocked when I was low below range ! I guess I should have paid closer attention to monthly blood tests! I left it to my doctor
As it was ! I noticed how depleted I was and told the doctor I was cutting dose by half ! But by then , the numbers did not get better!
Now struggling to increase all my blood numbers ! I FEEL GOOD THAT I MAY IMPROVE WITH OJJAARA
ALSO UNCERTAIN OF MY FUTURE!
I hope to hear from you
Stay strong and positive
