Zilch. Secondary PV is not leukemic. Not to worry. Watch out for potential pulmonary or heart issues now or down the road. To be sure of the dx, best to go to a university level teaching hospital to confirm the diagnosis. All in all, it is very good news if it is secondary. Robert, listowner mpdsupport.org. I’m no doctor.
