She'd tried various supplements and even eating a lot of meat. Interestingly enough, her iron went up when she decided to quit meat and became a vegan. I made a diet plan for her focusing on iron and vitamin C rich foods, eating them at specific times and combinations.
Polycythemia Vera. Polycythemia vera (PV) is a type of blood cancer known as a myeloproliferative neoplasm. It involves the abnormal development and function of bone marrow cells that produce blood cells, and leads to the overproduction of red blood cells. White blood cells and platelets may also be overproduced.
Polycythemia vera is a disorder of the blood-producing cells of the bone marrow that results in overproduction of red blood cells. The cause is not known. People may feel tired and weak, light-headed, or short of breath, or develop symptoms caused by blood clots.he cause is often unknown, but more than 95% of people with polycythemia vera have a mutation in the gene called JAK2. This mutation causes excess cell production. Blood cells are normally produced in the bone marrow. Sometimes the spleen and liver also start producing blood cells.
