Hi. Having had a sarcomatoid SCC likely triggered by ruxolitinib, and a haematologist v reluctant to reduce the rux and add some pegasys to maintain the good control of my MF without exacerbating the skin cancer risk , ( which does seem to me to be worth trying) is there anyone In the UK who is using this combination? A one person ruxopeg trial?

Do let me know if that's you - and who your doctor is. PM if you’d prefer that to posting. Might just tip the balance for me. Can’t cope with the stress of skin cancers as well as MF.
