Essential Thrombocythemia (ET): foods, diet, nutrition?

Hello,
My name is Isabelle, I’m 55 and I was diagnosed a month ago with Essential Thrombocythemia, JAK2 mutation. I’m waiting on my bone marrow aspiration and biopsy. My platelets are between 600-750. Currently, I’m considered intermediate risk and I'm on 1 low dose aspirin a day, my hemo is talking about 2 aspirins in 3 months. Also, we’ve started talking about chemo.

I’ve been reading up on ET, how it roughly « works » (I’m no doctor LOL) and what I can do to mitigate the tiredness and help my body, especially if I decide to go ahead with the chemo. Which brings me to my questions.

I’m a strong believer in the power of foods and spices, so from what I understand, the spleen and liver are the two organs that are the most affected by a high level of platelets. Am I understanding ET correctly? Has anyone adjusted their diet since their diagnosis? Also, do you know of trustworthy websites where I could find serious nutritional information on the topic?

Thanks a lot! 🙂
