thread_title: Question...

message: What does "Treatment is often challenging" mean?   Does that mean "treatment has a lot of side effects" or "it's difficult to figure out which of a dozen potentially helpful treatments to try first"?  Or is a euphemism for "treatment is pretty much ineffective"?  WhatamIdoing (talk) 05:34, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

message: My father in law was just diag. with this what should we suspect? Starting him on a 28 day supply of pills and a blood count every two weeks. Than a week off and back on the pills. He is 76 years old and has lost a lot of weight will he gain the weight back?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.42.210.10 (talk) 20:14, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Help with understanding this 

message: My mother -82 years old - is suffering from myelofibrosis since about seven years back in time. Before that she suffered from polycythemia vera.
My question is: 
1)Does the general medication cause incontinence and muscles unfit for use?
2) Is there anything at all to make her last years worth living?
Very grateful for an answer Vetgirig (talk) 20:24, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  myelofibrosis connection to other splenomegaly? 

message: I was surprised to read about the Shingles, i have suffered from them as well, but hadn't put the disease to it and my immune system been so low
I haven't had any form of Chemo or medication as yet, as i only got diagnosed back in January of this year, but prior to that i had ET 
My situation is a wait and watch one at the moment. I'm not bad enough for any trials, but as i told my specialist i don't want to wait until I'm in desperate need of been treated either.....I'm 42  with 5 children snd i'm not looking forward to the process ahead  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.104.33.182 (talk) 02:53, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

message: I don't feel I have the background to make this edit myself, but surely the phrase " Enlargement of the spleen is called splenomegaly, which also contributes to causing pancytopenia, particularly thrombocytopenia and anemia" is misleading.  Splenomegaly or hepatomegaly are the body's response to the bone marrow being unable to produce enough blood  cells, not a cause of the pancytopenia..  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doug Gillett (talk • contribs) 08:36, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
