Does anyone else suffer with joint pain & stiffness? Was diagnosed with HH 10 years ago then PV 7 years ago. Ferritin levels are kept normal but have such bad arthritis. Some days it’s impossible to function normally but then occasionally joints don’t hurt. Also hands are extremely affected and thumb has spontaneously dislocated. Dr says it’s from HH. If you’ve been affected like this please reply. Thanks
