I have had pv for years but just found out after a blood clot formed in my right leg and kept growing to the top of my leg.Then it stopped and after 2 months the vain dissolved. Now I have blood drops and hydro pills.I have had memory loss as you but getting better with time.I have a Newfoundland dog puppy and when I would have a attack and faint the dog new and would lie on me until it passed. Some time I would not know what happened.But now things are much better .No more fainting or getting teary.But PV does really suck until you get it under control
Thank you for your reply Raremiracle2

I wonder how many people with PV also have had some memory problems?? I’m thinking it may be more prevalent than previously thought?? It seems to make sense as blood viscosity could certainly impact flow to the brain.. As I stated in my earlier post, it was only my short term memory that was impacted.. Why short term… ?? Unknown…
