"Essential thrombocythaemia (ET, also known as Essential thrombocytosis or Essential thrombocythemia) or Primary thrombocytosis (PT) is a rare chronic blood disorder characterized by the overproduction of platelets by megakaryocytes in the bone marrow in the absence of an alternative cause. In some cases this disorder may be progressive, and rarely may evolve into acute myeloid leukemia or myelofibrosis. It is one of four myeloproliferative disorders."
"The pathologic basis for this disease is unknown. However, essential thrombocythaemia resembles polycythaemia vera in that cells of the megakaryocytic series are more sensitive to growth factors. Platelets derived from the abnormal megakaryocytes do not function properly, which contributes to the clinical features of bleeding and thrombosis. A mutation in the JAK2 kinase (V617F) has been found [4][5][6] to be associated with essential thrombocythaemia in around 40–50% of cases. About 3–4% of such cases go on to develop acute leukemia. JAK2 is a member of the Janus kinase family. This mutation may be helpful in making a diagnosis or as a target for future therapy."
It may be worth trying Protocol 1000 and observe if there are any changes in symptoms.
Let us know if you try Protocol 1000 and the results.
Thanks!

Do you have any news regarding the use of MMS for Essential thrombocythaemia?
I have a relative who has been diagnosed with this condition as well and I'm very curious if MMS would help him?
Thanks!
