mjfp49, you put it perfectly.

"Everyone seems to do a different dance with the drug depending on the doctor."

My oncologist is happy as long as my count is below 500.

That's still "high," but life is certainly better than when my count was in the 700s.

I'm a 72 year old female, MPL-driven ET.

@janemcclung
Yes. I wonder because your ET is driven by a different mutation not pushing as hard to drive the platelets down is the protocol.
Will have to look it up
Thanks
