I have been recently diagnosed and had a heart attack,partly the reason being of high red blood cell count.Wanted to know if anyone with this blood abnormalities, how often they went for phelebotomy and what were their count of haemoglobin.

Hello @atir, welcome to Connect. I'd like to invite @chadknudson, @mwear, and @juiceinjc to this discussion as they have all mentioned having polycythemia vera here on Connect. @atir, if you don't mind me asking, what sort of feedback are you looking for from other members? Were you recently diagnosed?
