I am 50 years old now and after feeling weak and getting dizzy, I went to a hematologist who asked for a bone marrow biopsy and all sorts of blood tests. After meeting with him, he told me that I still have Essential Thrombocythemia but it is overlapping with Myleofibrosis now. He gave me some steroids for a week and some folic acid pills, and wants to test my blood every other week. Anyone else experienced that?Louna  Louna Tue, 20 Mar 2007 00:00:00 GMT
