As far as 3 Hemotologist/ oncologists that I have seen, state that it is a rare form of incurable blood cancer but with treatment you can live a long time with it. You need to be under good care.

Agreed. My oncologist/hematologist said Polycythemia Vera IS a blood cancer. You have to stay on top of your labs, take your meds, do phlebotomies when numbers go high and just live a normal life. If you look up any of these conditions, they do state this as well.
