Hello DonnyB
I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling with fatigue related to your diagnosis of polycythemia vera. It's understandable that you're finding it difficult at the moment.
There's some information on the Blood Cancer UK website about looking after yourself that may be helpful, as well as an interesting article on the MPN Voice website about fighting fatigue.
Hopefully you'll be able to connect with others who are living with this condition soon, but in the meantime, if it would help to talk things through with one of our nurses, you're welcome to call them. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can. They're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040.
I do hope that with the support of the health professionals involved in your care you can improve things DonnyB. Keep in touch and let us know how you get on.
Best wishes,
Jenn
