Hi Jody, you need to see your GP about this. Best wishes, Maz

Follow up immediately on this. Be aware that some of the meds used to treat MPNs can cause skin cancers. You really do not want to take a chance with a rapidly changing skin condition like this.

Hi Jody

From your posts am l right that your a newbie diagnosed this year on Aspirin only. It cannot be due to any MPN meds as your not taking any? HU can cause skin cancer long term so protection is important ie sunblock. I have had two moles removed prior to ET diagnosis and both were benign. I have had other things that look like moles but weren’t . Here in Germany they give everyone a skin check annually so you become aware of skin issues. Many of our GP practices have skin doctors. The best thing is too check it out ASAP as Maz suggests.
