Primary Myelofibrosis: Continue watch & wait? 2nd opinion?

Posted by carolannt @carolannt, Nov 5, 2023

Does anyone have PMF? I was diagnosed in July and still need to learn more about what is best for me. I'm a 67 yo female and at last visit 2 mos ago I was not experiencing major symptoms. Occasional night sweats, slightly enlarged spleen, constant fatigue. Should I go to get advice from Mayo Clinic or keep doing the watch and wait? No meds right now.. Thanks

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Blood Cancers & Disorders Support Group.

How are you tolerating Ojjaara now that you’ve been on it a few months? When you say 1/2 dose, is that 10 mg? Any other unusual side effects? Someone on this site mentioned having neuropathy that had increased after being on Ojjaara.

Are you positive for JK2? I have PV with A positive JAK2 on hydrox for 2 years it can easily move to mylofibrosis...I personally would get a second opinion at a large academic center. what you have is serious and deserves a second look. I wish you all good things
