I am a 66 year old who was diagnosed with ET then PV just as I entered Medicare age here in the US. I take a low dose of Besremi to keep platelets and HCT somewhat normal. I am experiencing unusual sharp and lasting back pain along the rim of the pelvis. The first two times I did not set it off in any way. Most recently I picked up a half bucket of soil and was in shrieking pain mode. A Physicians' Assistant surmised that the pain was not from an internal organ/gut source because it changed from right to left sides. An X-ray showed early arthritis, but physical therapy does not indicate any restriction of movement or pain. I'm continuing to go because I hope to strengthen the muscles of the torso. Because I have some unpleasant intestinal sensations too, and have had other mysterious sensations in the long bones on rare occasions, I'm trying to sort out what is PV, what is medicinal side effects, and what is injury or weakness.
Can anyone tell me what PV or Besremi bone pain is like?
