Any IL-6 inhibitor or IL6 receptor inhibitor situation and Liver total protein issue
I would like to ask whether there are such patients with
myelofibrosis
. Even if they take Ruxolitinib, and take interferon at the same time. The total protein in the biochemistry of the liver continues to decline slowly.

Was wandering how you find out what stage your MF is
I would think I am probably at early stages as there has been no urgency to start me on any medication for my secondary
myelofibrosis
still just aspirin at the moment . Thanks in advance for any answers x

Myelofibrosis and tingling limbs
Myelofibrosis
and tingling limbs I've recently been diagnosed with
myelofibrosis
having had essential thrombocypomia for over 20 years with no symptoms and only low dose aspirin. My white blood cells are normal, my platelets a little low and I'm slightly anemic.

Just started taking Pegasys for myelofibrosis
I'm 41 female, Jak 2+, prefibrotic MF. I recently started taking Pegasys. I'm 3 injections in. One of my main symptoms of the disease has been numbness in my hands and that seems to be much better immediately after starting. But now I have been having significant aching in my joints of my hands which

Myelofibrosis worsened so going to start ruxolitinib
I've had my second consultant appointment since being diagnosed with post ET
myelofibrosis
about 1 month ago. Then I was intermediate level 1 with platelet count 117 which gave me a median survival of 14 years.

Pelabresib May Represent Optimal Partner for JAK Inhibition in Myelofibrosis
The benefits yielded with the BET inhibitor pelabresib (formerly CPI-0610) in patients with
myelofibrosis
are multifold, and the agent’s potential to improve disease biology and overcome shortcomings faced with JAK inhibitors make it a strong partner for combinations and a stand-out option vs other agents

ALTERNATIVE TO RUXONLITINIB
Good afternoon After five years of excellent treatment on Ruxonlitinib to treat
myelofibrosis
and recent surgery to remove an aggressive SCC from my forehead , I am under consideration to crossover to an alternative treatment , namely interferon.

However, due to my recent diagnosis of
Myelofibrosis
,I will probably be looking at stepping back from front line duties. I already suffer from ET as well. Trying my best to keep my optimism levels up, in light of my latest illness. Take care

Saxenda weight loss medication
I have
myelofibrosis
and take hydroxycarbamide. Can anyone tell me if there are any reasons why i should not have Saxenda which is a medicine to help you loose weight. Its a GLP1 hormone ( i understand) can anyone point me in the right direction. There are no drug interactions

Jakavi
I started Jakavi treatment some months ago as I was progressing from PV to
myelofibrosis
. I had immediate relief from itching but it seems to have returned. Enlsrged spleen, haematocrit down, platelets low and white cells not well controlled. What now?

Targeted Therapies for Polycythemia Vera
Some of the reasons we see patients come off ruxolitinib for
myelofibrosis
after 3 years really do not apply to our patients with polycythemia vera.

Myelofibrosis and Cataract Surgery Question
I have
myelofibrosis
and just had cataract surgery. Before the surgery I had didn't always see perfectly because of the
myelofibrosis
. Does having this cancer affect the cataract surgery? Thank you.

Hydroxycarbamide
I have
myelofibrosis
and three different mutations with a chronic portal vein thrombosis. I’m a cervical cancer survivor as well. For the most part I’m doing much better before I started treatment. We will explore other options eventually.

Transplant at age 68 or not
I've had
myelofibrosis
for about 30 years and been on ruxolitinib successfully for about 8 years. We have just moved to Scotland and my new consultant has laid it on the line that rux doesn't go on working for ever and my only other option is transplant.
