Is MF The Cause Of Increased Platelets?
My blood test showed platelets 904,000
The results of a bone marrow biopsy showed that I have myelofibrosis
Genetic test results showed that I was positive for the CARL gene mutation
Yesterday the doctor concluded: MF. (The doctor explained that my platelets were high due to MF)
Sorry to hear about the MF diagnosis. The short answer is yes, MF can cause thrombocytosis. It can also cause thrombocytopenia.
There are some excellent resources for learning about MF and the ther MPNs. The MyMPNTeam site is a good place to start. The presentations at this site are quite good. Suggest starting with MPN Molecular Biology. https://mpninfo.org/conferences/2025-conference...
Wishing you all the best.
Excellent resources- I think it does - I have PMF - primary MF but have thrombocytosis.
Does Anyone Take Supplements That Help Lower Platelets? Thanks
Is It True That High Platelets Are Not The Reason For Clotting Risk, But Mutations Are.
Are Night Sweats A Typical Symptom Of ET Or Is It More Often Related To MF?
