To Hahag, many people are on this drug including myself, I think everyone has this side effect , I was told it could happen and try to live through it as eventually it will subside to a lesser degree. This is what has happened to me, and I don't really notice it much, but I guess everyone is different , but for myself I would rather take the meds because of the disease. I hope you have better and good health soon. June.

When I first got diagnosed with ET, my Dr, put me on hydroxy and another drug called anagrelide. You might want to ask him about that. He took me off the anagrelide a while back but you might want to ask him about it. I also take Jakafi but I have 2 different blood disorders, ET and PV. Good luck.
