    Hi yes I am on the mpn site and get lots of advise about it unfortunately I'm with mayday haemotolgy and at the moment they have only put me on aspirin to stop my platelets getting higher but I keep telling them I am having bad pain in hands feet and knees it's like my bones are crushing it's been like this for 6 months now I am having a bone marrow biopsy on Friday to see which type mpn I have and maybe I might get some help then on top off all this when my feet touch the ground after 10 mins they turn blue

    Thankyou for that I am happy I have the bone marrow biopsy but am worried about the result as you no there's different types of mpn and the way my bones are hurting I'm worried it could be lykemyo my fingers are crossed
