This is an an interesting short 'Zoom' discussion held by Andrew Schorr, Dr Jaimeson, Dr Scott, Nurse McAlpin, and a number of MPN patients.
The video is approx. 13mins. in duration, and the talk provides a range of insights from why it is that MPNs are considered to be blood cancers of the bone marrow, aspects of how they are diagnosed, why prognosis is relatively difficult, and why we should all remain hopeful and optimistic, as today people are generally living longer with an MPN.
If you ever have time, I would love to hear which dietary regime you use.
I tried a ketogenic diet. I bought all the things I would need, but did not get on with it in fact, I hated it.
Having read the posts, I am about to start fasting on Sundays. I chose this day because if I don’t eat, I sometimes feel a bit lightheaded and get slight shakes in my hands. So at home it would be easy to manage. I don’t go out much on Sundays.
I’m also going to try some aerobics.
Everything is still in lockdown here, so i’ll Google some aerobic exercises for the 70s plus.
