Hi

I thought it went well. Well done for helping organise this.

I think if we get one thing out of it, its being able to talk about it with other people who understand.

That is one of the main problems, because the majority of people have never heard of an MPN , even as we discussed last night a lot of GP's dont know much about them either.

Thanks for organising I found it really helpful to meet others dealing with their npm

[Dubmatix]

Me too, it's a very useful forum for sharing experiences and ideas. And it's always nicer that the online equivalent.

[Shelly1960]

[Shelly1960]

Glad all enjoyed and hippie you enjoy the next one
