Since each person experiences MF differently, learning the signs and symptoms is important. | Symptoms Can Vary Widely
Each person's experience with MF is different. While this isn't a complete list, some of the signs can include: - Deep fatigue
- A feeling of fullness or discomfort in the abdomen, caused by an enlarged spleen
- Low platelet counts that may cause easy bruising or bleeding
- Night sweats, itchy skin, problems concentrating, or losing weight without trying
These symptoms can slowly build, making daily life increasingly challenging. | One Patient's Story
For one woman, her MF stripped away some of the activities she loved most. She also experienced pain in her spleen. Navigating her diagnosis was difficult. The influx of new information and terminology was overwhelming, but with the help of her oncology team, she found clarity: "I realized I needed to do what I could to familiarize myself with the disease. This is the long haul." | Finding the Right Support
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to myelofibrosis. Treatment plans vary and can range from managing specific symptoms to therapies designed to address the disease. The most important step is partnering with a healthcare provider to explore options and create a plan that fits your needs. | | Read More About One Patient's Perspective on Coping with MF Symptoms and Treatment | | Trademarks are property of their respective owners. © 2025 GSK or licensor.
