Hello. I was also diagnosed in the UK with ET 10 days ago. I am 54 years old and have tiredness, and headaches. Although I wondered how much is my age vs ET. At the moment the Chelsea Haematology’s doctor said just take aspirin. The iron infusions sound interesting. They said I was low on B12. Is that connected? Any information links greatly received.

Your diagnosis is worthy of getting another opinion - not to say that his assessment is wrong, but rather the "just take aspirin" comment. You need better care than that. 🙂
