Hi tuts9a3c15 and welcome to the community.
I am Mike and I help out around our blood cancer groups.
The Community is actually divided into dedicated Support Groups (Discussion Rooms) so can I recommend you look to join and post in our dedicated…….
MDS/MPN/ET/PV/myelofibrosis (MF)
……. support group.
This group is a safe place to talk to others who may have a similar diagnosis, treatment experience, to ask questions and get support from family members who are navigating the same support journey.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
