Hi Jen_X61

Sorry to hear about your husband having a diagnosis of PV.

I was diagnosed at 48 years old and I am now 59. I think I only had the well known symptoms but found lots of information on two sites.

MPNvoice.org.uk and Healthunlocked.com

It is very useful to find a specialist MPN consultant or Professor if you can. There are lots of new very effective treatments that allow you to have a very near normal life.

Keeping fit and active is important.

Take care
