Is Polycythemia Vera considered a blood cancer?
Polycythemia Vera, 22 years ago when i was diagnosed, was not considered cancer. Is it now?
Hi
! While not everyone characterizes PV and other MPN blood cancers, many groups, including the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, do. We try to stay consistent with their characterizations. Here's a link for your reference if you and others are interested! https://www.lls.org/myeloproliferative-neoplasms/polycythemia-vera?src1=20084&src2=. How are you doing these days?
