@birgitr Hi. Had my haemo appointment today. Strangely, my platelets were down from 940 to 880 and as he says the asprin renders half my platelets inactive he didn't see the need to start me on treatment. I stated my preference of using Peg when the time comes. He was fine with that and confirmed that I would start on a dose of 45. I had a suspected DVT last week. It was the second false alarm in the last couple of months so I had really resigned myself to the fact it was time for treatment, if anything, to put my mind at rest that I wasn't a walking time bomb. Anyway, I heard about an MPN specialist a couple of hours away and I am going to get a second opinion. My haemo knows of her and said that she favours using interferon and he will be interested to hear her recommendation. Not sure when the appointment will be. Hopefully in the not too distant future. I will keep you posted. Good luck with your injection tomorrow.
