Slowly putting some pieces together, from which I may be able to ask more intelligent questions, and have a better understanding of my situation. This might be the place to accomplish some of that. So where would be the best place to hang out, or start a discussion? Thanks for helping me get started.
Not much discussion on here about myelofibrosis. The lady I know had a bone marrow transplant. She went to another hospital for the aftercare and was told there is treatment for it.

Here is a good place to start. It shows who is doing research and writing journal papers. At this point, I assume you are going to a good hematologist who has lots of experience in treating this condition.
