Jean Mutation

After the bone hammering session by Doctor Li, we figured out I didn't have this gene mutation called Jak2. If I would of had this mutation, there is a drug called Jakafi that would of helped me out with the symptoms I don't really show yet with Myleofibrosis. But my doctor wanted me to go on it anyway as it "may" help out with the symptom I do have, an enlarged spleen. After learning that the drug is a mellow $9G a month drug that they wanted me to take, we decided it was time for a second opinion.
