I know this is an old thread, but I saw the mention of Camp LeJeune. I was born at Camp LeJeune in 1970 and lived there until I was about 3. I was just diagnosed with Polycythemia Vera JAK+ a few days ago. I know about the issues associated with contaminated water. Our house was very near the dry cleaner that was the source of the contamination. It is rather upsetting to me to think that every single baby bottle me and every other baby on that base drank was poisoned. There is really no other way to state it.
I’ve heard of Camp Lejeune and how ET and other blood cancers have been traced to it. Has the military acknowledged this and are they compensating individuals ? On the MPNRF site, it also mentioned electrical wiring as being suspect in the cause of ET and other MPN’s. Wonder how many other electricians have MPN.
