Hi everyone, I wanted to follow up on a post which I found really helpful from ETinNYC a few days ago regarding blood clots and whether fellow MPNers had experienced blood clots and many of you kindly shared your experiences. Following on from this, I was wondering if those of you who have experienced blood clots would mind sharing the symptoms you experienced?
The reason I am asking is because last weekend I had a trip to A & E to check for a clot in my lung due to a severe pain I was experiencing when I was breathing but thankfully clots were ruled out. The doc told me to come in at the first sign of any clots but what should we be looking out for? I have read the NHS info on clots they gave me but always good to hear from fellow MPN ers.
I am 47 years old JAK2 positive and diagnosed 2 years ago and always happy to learn as am hoping to be living a long time with this!
Many thanks.
