I was diagnosed with PV at 25. I am now 73 and still living strong! I have always participated in my my healthcare plan with my hematologist. PV is manageable and you must decide how you will handle this blood cancer as you live your life. My attitude is that I was diagnosed with this PV but I will manage it and live life to the fullest. I am a praying woman and the Lord has used me and PV to demonstrate to others through my testimony that life has its interruptions, but we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. My advice is to take charge of your health and keep moving forward. God bless.🙂

I was diagnosed in my early 30’s, 4 months after I had my 4 pound daughter. I had an undiagnosed blood clot that went undetected. I could have died by the time my PVera was caught. I had 5 pints drawn off of me because my Hemoglobin was so high. I had blood slugging in my brain on the left side. It was a very scary first 6 months. Now I’m 50 and it’s been 18 years since I was diagnosed. Recently within the last year I’ve had severe GI issues. I dropped 62 pounds due to gastric ulcers. I felt like my body was going to kill me by starving itself. I’m better now than I was but it was a rough past year. I had never had any issues until a year ago. I pray I gain back some weight because being 5’9 & 116 pounds is too thin. I can’t wait to go back to feeling like me. I don’t take life for granted, you can’t. We’re all here for a short amount of time. Live life to the fullest! I’m blessed everyday I wake up. I have a wonderful support system and a beautiful daughter. I’m so thankful my PVera was caught in time because just like this lady I fainted. Dizziness is a huge warning sign in woman. I honestly felt pregnant again. To live a full life it’s so important to be proactive in your treatment. Has Anyone else had gastric ulcers??

I have polycythemia and my g/dl count goes up to in the 50's and then I get a phlebotomy and some blood gets drained out. Then finally I ate iron absorption foods and that reduced my iron count some, but it took a while, finally I took diluted Oxalic-acid which reduced my iron ten g/dl 's in four days. I sure feel a lot better now and the polycythemia symptoms left, but I still keep it monitored for caution and safety. I don't recommend this treatment to anyone, but I would think that this is an area that needs to be researched by professional medical personnel. Oxalic-acid is an iron scavenger and foods containing Oxalic-acid reduce iron in the blood.

I started feeling funny in my 30s. I went to a military doctor for feeling weird symptoms at age 39. He binned me as a mental case. I went back for various symptoms but the doctors all saw the notes in my health records and quickly diverted every discussion to mental type questions. I was put on Paxil for anxiety against my wishes and tried it but did not diminish my symptoms (numbness and tingling in hands, swelling hands, redness, extreme fatigue, lightheadedness, occasional vertigo). I stopped going to military doctors because I was on the fast track to command and didnt want to be committed to the mental health ward. So I started self medicating with exercises and diet and meditation and prayer and tons of time on Google. The doctors did some perfunctory labs over the years and told me I was fine although my platelets were always slightly high but they said it wasnt a problem (they were around 450,000). When I retired from the military, I demanded a review by a hematologist. I was diagnosed with ET, an MPN that causes over production of platelets. I take a baby aspirin daily and work out a lot. I am feeling the symptoms more and more though. Now the docs say I likely have PV although my red blood cells and hemoglobin and hematocrit are all normal. They say this because my hematocrit is about 47 which is normal but too high for someone with an MPN. So soon they want me to start taking hydroxurea. I likely had this condition for 30 yeas or more with much of that time being undiagnosed and treated as a nutjob by the military despite never missing a day of work except one day in the 80s. I can understand getting a diagnosis wrong but humiliating a person is wrong. The hematology community should ensure medical records are cleansed of mental health notes once a person is diagnosed with an MPN.

I run my own semi pro basketball league.I also started a non profit for the purpose of raising funds for furthering research for a PV cure, and of course, hoping to raise awareness of this illness. It's about keeping self out of self. Someone has it worse than I do dealing with this cancer. Face it, little attention to this point has been given to PV. However I think that is starting to change though. Meanwhile, stay strong, be blessed, and as I always say, remember to do something nice for somebody.

PV is leukemia. What type of leukemia you have is based on your bloodwork and different cell counts. There are multiple diseases that fall under the leukemia umbrella. The word leukemia simply means blood cancer but there are a bunch of different types. Pv is simply not a known type by everyone because it is rare and chronic and therefore has much higher success rates.

I had Polycythemia and had to get a phlebotomy about once a month, because my Hemoglobin was around 55 g/dl and my Doctor ordered it. Finally I wondered about people with Anemia that were short of red-blood-cells analogously like an opposite to Polycythemia! Then I looked up the foods that people with Anemia do not eat because they are iron blockers. Many of these foods are called Oxalate's and absorb Iron. So then I started eating these foods (with Oxalate s) abundantly and after a few weeks I had my Hemoglobin checked by my Doctor and my Hemoglobin was down to 16 g/dl and now over a year later my Hemoglobin is still 16 g/dl. That is a drop of 39 g/dl’s in a very short time and it held good. Sometimes just a simple procedures are workable. Of course I believe that my mental procedures, meditations & thoughts had something added to this procedure that was synergy related that made it more effective. Make it clear that I am not prescribing anything to anyone, but expressing my own thoughts and experience. However I would recommend that medical personnel investigate this.

I am 49 years old and found out I have PV right after I had turned 47. I had already had one stroke in Jan 2019, then when I had my 2nd stroke Jan 2020 they told me I suddenly had PV. One of my doctors also found out the one of the veins in my head had also like collapsed, which could have also contributed. So now I have a stint in my brain (like the one they use for hearts), and I have PV, and I've had a total of 3 strokes in a 13 month time period. I don't understand why this happened to me, no one in my family has it, and neither did I until about a year after I had my first stroke. I'm trying to do the best I can. I was going once a month to get my blood tested to watch my Hematocrit levels. And now I go once every 3 months. However, I still have this little voice inside telling me "you're going to die soon" and I hate it. Why can't we get rid of this disease? UGH! Anyway, thanks for listening. It's good knowing there are more people out there living with this and after so many years. Thanks.

I think we got this because my parents lived on a military base that had horrible chemicals in the water they used for everything and our eldest sibling was conceived and born at this base and passed away at 3 months old, my eldest brother was conceived on base but born elsewhere, he had so many bad symptoms and sick most of his like and he is the one that passed away in his sleep at age 50. My father passed away at 53 also. Now our children are suffering also with bad symptoms and bad lab results as well. 😢

I was diagnosed by my Primary Doctor in December 2017. I found out two weeks ago. I've already been dealing with another chronic illness, a fatal progressive neurological disease, in addition to chronic pain, for ten years. When the PV symptoms started, I knew it was something new. I thought my other disease was progressing. Instead, I have a slow pressing chronic cancer. 💩

I was diagnosed with this 3 years ago and have quite a few symptoms, my doctor said at the time it was only mild and didn't need any treatment, which having looked it up worried me. I have asked twice more since about my condition ( which I think in 3 years is not being a nuisance ) was told quite sharply not to worry about it and shown the door. In the UK we can't just go to another doctor you have to be referred, so I'm stuck, finding it difficult to walk, no energy and can't breathe properly, life is getting hard at 64.

@TM-mr5zb4 жыл бұрын
I've had this for 37 years. In my experience there's not a lot you can do once the itching gets very bad. But, I would suggest that you really start paying attention to your body when the itching starts. Because I have noticed that the itching is a sign that other symptoms will start soon. Itching for me indicates that it's time for me to rest( lay down, get my heat pad and rest) or just sit for a few and de-stress. Also, if I am craving a certain food(foods with garlic and onions, collard greens, kale, bananas, grapes, ect....) when I eat the good foods that my body is craving it helps. Also, keep hydrated to give your blood the best chance of transporting the oxygenated cells your body needs. I would also talk with your doctor about certain pain meds and muscle relaxers if it gets intolerable, because it helps to rest the irritation away.

I have a very confusing experience with polycythemia Vera. When I was 41 I had 2 heart attacks and was told I had polycythemia- then a few short weeks later my blood test showed no sign of the disease. Now at 62 years old- although not diagnosed- I had another abnormal blood test result - this time instead of having a massive over production of red cells I also had a huge overproduction of white cells in addition. After 4 months of rx vitamin D and repeat of blood work my results came back normal. Just under the care of primary physician who advised me not to worry about it- that it was just a fluke thing. Should I see a specialist to get to the bottom of it? By the way when there is an over production of both cells- my blood they say is thick like “slush” as the lab tech describes it.

Ron2u23 I’m not sure about the lifespan because mine was so unexplainable. I think there are people that have a much more involved diagnosis than I had. Mine mysteriously disappeared. But the second time around- the most recent bloodwork/results were off the chart and in nearly every area including my thyroid as well as I was severely deficient in Vitamin D. When we got all the other issues in order- then the polycythemia became completely resolved and again my follow up bloodwork results showed my blood count was normal. But my original symptoms were extreme tiredness, and aching and I was unable to process anything during a simple conversation. Just very strange. I pray that it will resolve on its own regarding your wife. God bless you both.
