Great articulate guidelines!

I’m forwarding this onto my daughter to make sure these professional recommended guidelines are adhered to in the worst case scenario for myself.

Thanks Maz

Thanks Maz for posting that. I’m still going to reduce my risk of exposure to coronavirus as much as possible so as not to become a statistic on any list. At least I know what to do about Ruxolitinib in the worst case scenario. I’m also advising my nearest and dearest so they can fight my case should I be unable to do so! I wear a medic alert type necklace all the time which would give access to treatment information and contact details for my haematologist. I don’t think I can do any more than that!

Keep safe and keep well everyone

Jan
