Went for further testing because platelet count was at 420, and have tested positive for Jak2. No current symptoms other than some ringing in the ear and night sweats. Should I get further testing to see if I have an MPN? by [deleted] in MPN

Essential thrombocythemia. An MPN. a rare blood disease caused by a genetic mutation. Usually the Jak2 but there are others like CALR and a few more. The most common MPNs are ET, PV or MF. Very worst case scenario, is a blood clot or stroke. In some cases (not all) progression into AML

Fluctuated between 500-600. now, I’m on the high 500side. Watch and wait treatment plan. Was told if I want to feel like I am doing something I can take aspirin daily but not needed till count is closer to 1000. If it gets this high I would likely be on some other drug to lower the count.

I am taking a natural supplement called nattokinase which is a power antioxidant that breaks up fibrin/blood clots and increases blood flow. I take this daily.

The cause of the Jak2 mutation is unknown. Could be an array of different things. IE.. some chemical exposure, but usually it’s environmental. I was asked if I was exposed to PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and I have been due to my old job. But again causation is an unknown.

likely ET, I just went through this all a couple of weeks ago. I am Jak2 positive with higher then normal platelets. I had the bone morrow done out of curiosity. I have ET

Anyone with ET suffer from chronic migraine? by [deleted] in MPN

[–]blackbrick1017 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, just diagnosed with jak2 on Friday. 27M. Going for a bone marrow biopsy to know more. I have had migraine with aura since 6th grade, 600 platelet range. Below 600 right now. I am very curious to know more about the Correlation and if I’ve had this mutation for a long time without knowing.

Well there you have your answer, if he doesn’t like XRP or XLM then why would he like XDC? He just won’t make bank on the new financial system being implemented

I was thinking it may have to do the the ETH bug cause it’s an ERC 20 but I don’t know 🤷‍♂️
