Hello all, again, sorry for even more questions, I got 2 stents on December 22 and discharged with a load of pills, as I said previously I've went from 0 pills a day, to 10. I was wondering what side effects you have all experienced, at the moment I am having slight aches in my back, and side, which

Statin effects
Can taking a statin (as well as established Aspirin therapy) have any affect on platelet count? On either a good or bad way for someone with ET? Thank you

Should I get a hospital check?
Something strange happened work.I breathed some strange chemical and I am not sure what type of chemical. But since smelling/inhaling it the left side of my chest has been sore. I have taken two pain reliever aspirins but the soreness is still active. Just wondering if I should go to the ER for a check

Clodiprogrel
Ordered my tablets the other day only to find there was no Clodiprogrel which I was taking, all my other tablets, which are: Lansaprozole, Aspirin, Bisoprolol, Isosorbide Mononitrate, Losartin and Rovastatin. When I questioned this with the Doctors surgery they explained that the doctor had stopped

Dapagliflozin
Following my Cardiology consult just before Christmas my cardiologist increased the dosage of Bisoprolol, changed my Simvastatin to an increased dose of Atorvastatin, but left my Ramipril as before. New addition to the regime is Dapagliflozin as I am borderline diabetic also. Do any of you take this

ET and Covid Risk
Happy New Year everyone. Why are we classed as extremely vulnerable to Covid? I read we may need a 4th booster and we are eligible for the meds should we get Covid. I know it’s because we have a blood cancer but what are the actual risks from Covid if we have ET which is well controlled with Hydroxy

First FET: when did you start baby aspirin? Anyone has MTHFR heterozygous gene?
So the doctors here in the UK state I do not need baby aspiring, while my doctor in Italy recommended it due to my recurrent miscarriage and the fact that I have heterozygous gene. Nothing worrying but I would like to try the baby aspirin. When did you start?

Aspirin & Anoikis Resistance
New breast cancer study below [1], but read on. Anoikis is a form of cell death that occurs when cells break free of the extracellular matrix and wander off. For cancer cells to become metastatic, they must develop resistance to anoikis. In the current study, which looked at breast cancer metastasis

I am only on aspirin for my ET (at moment). How much should I be shielding from Covid? I am triple vaxxed.
Is ET a risk factor in Covid itself? Or is the relevance of risk increased for those using cytoreductive drugs. (Hydroxycarbamide)?

Besremi approved. Not what?
Updated: 1/27/2022: Tomorrow is the day I start Besremi. I was dx with PV 4/15 (tax day in US) in 2015. Since then I've only had phlebotomies and taken aspirin. I've had no issues or challenges other than low ferritin which I believe contributed to my fatigue. I immediately upon dx began educating

Wine should be consumed in moderation. I drink one glass of red wine with my dinner, between 1 and 3 times per week.

Understanding your blood test
Hi all, Happy New Year etc! I have finally managed to translate my blood test results and for anyone else out there who is also bemused, I am attaching a guide to help you understand the basics.

Have people tried resveratrol for chronic or peri or myocarditis?
A few studies have shown resveratrol to help but they are not in human and is given ahead of induction of the disease. I think ibuprofen makes me worse and aspirin does little.
