Interesting about degenerative disc disease and pv. I have lumbar degenerative disc disease confirmed on X-ray, but no one has suggested pv as a cause. I am 78 and was diagnosed with pv two years ago. Just started jakafi, but I think my back pain is age related. I know the md’s are not worried, just me. Stretching helps. JJD

My husband has had degenerative disc disease for years and this year diagnosed with MDS another blood cancer. So this is interesting I have read before where back pain can be a precursor yet no way doctors can check everyone with back pain for certain cancers.
