There are three forms of MPN. There is treatment but not a cure, most of the times it is treated with mild chemotherapy pills. The most common symptoms are headache, pain in the feet/ hands, abnormal clotting, and dizziness. This disease doesn't effect one specific race/gender/age.

The cause of TTP isn't known, but it is associated with the lack of enzymes that form blood clots. Some of the symptoms include unusual destruction of red blood cells, speech abnormalities, loss of consciousness and/ or lack of color. The population most affected with TTP is age 20-50 year olds who have HIV, it is also commonly related to pregnancy, therefore it is dominantly common in women. the rate of occurrence is 3.7 million per year. The most commonly used treatment is the removal of antibodies that make the ADAMTS13 not work from the plasma using a procedure called plasma exchange then the antibodies are replaced into the blood stream.

Plasma cells help you fight infections by making antibodies that recognize and attack germs.” (Source 1) It's not clear what causes myeloma.“Doctors know that myeloma begins with one abnormal plasma cell in your bone marrow- the soft, blood- producing tissue that fills in the center of most of your bones. The abnormal cell multiplies rapidly.” (Source 1)The symptoms include bone pain (especially in your spine or chest), nausea, constipation, loss of appetite, mental fogginess or confusion, fatigue, frequent infections, weight loss, weakness or numbness in your legs, and excessive thirst. (Source 1)Most people who get the disease Multiple Myeloma are usually 65 or older. It’s only on rare occastions to see this disease in people younger than the age of 35. Men are more likely to get it than women are. (Source 2)“Some people with early (often called "smoldering") multiple myeloma may not need treatment right away. In this case, your healthcare provider will closely watch you. If you have certain symptoms or your disease is progressing, you will start treatment.” (Source 2) Sources:Mayo Clinic Staff.

This overproduction of blood cells in the bone marrow can create problems for blood flow and lead to various symptoms. MPNs were called Myeloproliferative Diseases until 2008 when the World Health Organization reclassified them as cancers and renamed them Myeloproliferative Neoplasms.” (Source 1)Primary Myleofibrosis causes thicking and scarring of Fibers inside bone marrow, which increses the production of red blood cells, which then causes anemia. (Source 2)“Myleoproliferative Neoplasms is a cancer that cause bone marrow… lukaemias and other cancers, become more common as we get older.” (Source 3)The Common Symptoms include headaches, blurred vision, fatigue, weakness, dizzieness, itchincess (pruritus), night sweats, and raised blood pressure (hypertension).

This helps control any symptoms of your disease and reduces the risk of complications due to blood clotting, or bleeding.” (Source 3)Sources:Cancer Support Community. Cancer Support Community.
