@stimme, you may want to read this information on myelofibrosis from Mayo Clinic

Have they suggested using natural interventions along with traditional treatment? How are things going for you with just the natural treatments?

Hello, Becky, My consultant told me he is not permitted to recommend natural treatment by NICE the National Institution of Clinical Excellence! However, he did look at the printouts I gave him from the myelofibrosis group on Cancer Compass where contributors gave details of their figures after following a generally similar natural protocol. These showed a number of improvements in blood counts etc which was not usual in this condition! "Very interesting!" was his comment. I do have a swollen spleen still but am not aware of suffering from this particularly, more from my diagnosis of spinal stenosis. I was also diagnosed with mild prostate cancer in August 2019. I have just found that I should not have been eating eggs every day for breakfast - too much choline, so have stopped that and am reviewing my diet this weekend to cover both conditions!
