Update on “20 years old and Scared”

[Lc06091]

Hey guys, roughly 11 months ago I posted in this group worried to death about my unspecified polycythemia diagnosis. You guys provided me with so much support during that time, even though I was a bit shy to respond to comments after a couple of days. Well, I was tested for the JAK2 gene which came back negative which was a huge relief. In December I underwent a fairly advanced septoplasty with and adenoidectomy and turbinoplasty. I had a follow up with me hematologist last week, and my hemoglobin/hemocrit levels were both much lower and finally within the normal spectrum. Again, thank you all for the support and encouraging words during my worry. It truly meant more than you know.

Hi Logan,I have no idea what those tests were but so happy to hear that your bloods are in the normal range. It must have been so stressful for you undergoing all the tests and waiting for answers. Hope you continue to be healthy and happy.

So glad everything worked out well. Trust you have now fully recovered from your surgery (and that’s it made a big difference to you). Hope you can now go live your best life!
