Brilliant thanks much Maz. I had posted a question about putting my name forward for the Mosaicc study with Prof. McMullan. How best should I go about this? Thanks!

Hi Emerald you need to speak with your haematologist who can advise you about the nearest centre to you: The MOSAICC study is opening across 18 sites in the United Kingdom in 2020/2021. Sites in the Republic of Ireland are planned when funding is secured. The study is investigating the causes of myeloproliferative neoplasms and will involve completing paper questionnaires, participating in a telephone interview and providing blood, saliva and toenail clipping samples. Only patients who have been diagnosed in the last 24 months will be eligible to participate. If you meet the eligibility criteria and your hospital is participating in the study your consultant/research nurse will ask you about participating in the study during a routine appointment. It is really important that we hear from as many eligible patients as possible so if you are invited to participate we would encourage you to do so.

That's brilliant. Prof McMullan is at my hospital. Diagnosed less than 24 months ago so that's good too. I will speak to my haemo at my next appointment then. Thanks again x

This is one of the most helpful forums held and being able to watch different parts of it separately is very useful.

I started at the end and the questions and answers section covered a lot of interesting topics and were particularly informative.

The regional part when Dr Mark Drummond revealed how the shielding list had been compiled for those of us with mpns in Scotland was a revelation. As this forum showed there was utter confusion as to why some were getting the letters, others weren't and the 2 big blood cancer charities were saying something different.

I echo other people's thanks for the time and effort everyone who took part put into the forum.
